Hmm by Tuesday of the #12 NIU / ESPN Gameday week we had already sold out Perry Stadium. . . with the North endzone bleachers.

This will no doubt be a sellout but it is crazy that it hasn't sold out already!

Hopefully the students show up even if we get a little precip. Looking back at the archives for the NIU game we expected 5,000 students for that game but there were more than that for the Troy opener. . . .

I think the students will show even if it's raining a little. One thing about Saturday night games, it gives students plenty of time to "get ready." I just hope students are picking tickets up.

If by "get ready" you mean :drinkers: then you are correct. Something tells me Im going to have to do a lot of getting ready for this one :)

I'm gonna be so effing ready! ;)


I'm not surprised that this game is not quite the hot ticket of that GameDay game. Remember that we were also ranked that day...plus the hype of GameDay being here. Still, this game will sell out and it's gonna be an awesome crowd.

Just placed my order for two online. It appears all the regular bleachers are gone and pretty much everything on the West side. I got 2 in Section 14, Row 42 on the East side.

So you better hurry...

I think a lot of students still don't realize that you need a ticket to get in....i've been telling people all week that had just planned on going to the game and using their ID

Attended more games than any responsible student should have.

NIU in 2003 wqas a way bigger deal. We were ranked, it was a bit later in the year and it was a key conference game. People were pointing to the NIU game well before Gameday got involved because we had owed NIU a SERIOUS ass whuppin' for laying the first loss of the 2002 season on us over in Dekalb. I'm not saying we don't owe the Broncos an "L" for last year and 2005, but I don't sense the hatred for Boise State that we had back then for NIU.

BG/NIU/UT was a great three way rivalry back in the early 2000's. We don't have anyting like that here in the east.

If you give a couple OU coeds a hemp necklace and some patchouli, you can probably swing the three-way, but yeah, it's not much of a rivalry.

My guess would be the 3 student sections; roughly 5,000. Someone correct me if that is wrong.
