Well, I know this is early but student TG break begins on the 23rd, night of the game, day of the game etc...
Anyone have an idea at this point as to what a projected student turn out will be for this game?
I would guess high, esp if we beat JCREW U (I love that name).
I have family coming in from out of town who are trying to adjust work Sch. to be here for the game now that understand its in BG this year.

General feeling I got from some students was a lot of them will be leaving either after the game or the next morning, so it should be a solid turn out. The Miami game too will also have emphasis on who shows up and whatnot.

I will be missing one class on tuesday which is my 4:30 class. My father is leaving from work around 12:30 to leave to get here.. which means he will be at BG around 3... so I will definitely be there. Just think, my dad and I watching (maybe) BG beat Toledo to go to the MAC Championship... What a great day that would be...

Replace of with after in the above post and you might have a better outlook on things. . . 8)

Oh, they'll probably clear out before the game. Hell, they get Friday off this week, and classes are running under 50% already, and it's only Wednesday.

This prety much what I was thinking. Those who follow and care about football will stay, more so if we beat Miami. I just can not see them getting pumped up for the game unless we win.

Pick one.

The game will sell out and have a strong student showing.

I agree. Student turn out was pretty good the last two times we did this -- on the Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving, respectively.

I think we'll have a strong student turnout....especially since the game is on ESPN 2. The game will sell out.
