UF has more Fair Weather fans than anyone else in college football and it isn't even close.


That is the nature of being located in a state of 20 million people, you are going to get more fair weather fans than schools in small states. I'd imagine it is the same in Texas.

Better than your pathetic excuse for a high school stadium.

I find it incredibly disrespectful to Johnny Vaught that you named that piece of shite after him.


I also find it incredibly disrespectful that Ole Miss hasn't had the goddamn decency to win the West or 10 regular season games, EVER.


You're a fricking disgrace.

How can this be? They sell out every game. Have they lowered the number of seats in their stadium?

and yet schools continue to make their stadiums bigger

they should instead focus on making them much nicer for the fans. think leather office chair style seating, cheaper concessions, and fm radio on each chair to listen to the game

That is still the greatest rammer jammer video I've ever seen. Sounded and looked like an Alabama home game.

I think Boomers are the most nostalgic about their college days. The more they check out, the fewer people will be taking their places. The younger generations are poorer and care less.

Add to that the whole gameday experience has become a giant hustle.

I still have to point out that ours would be slightly higher without a Little Rock game at 50,000.

OM has a Sugar Bowl year and they drop in attendance with only 60k.

OM fans are poor


Don't worry, we are hanging chandeliers above the 50 yard line to encourage more fans to attend. Cold chicken fingers will also be included thanks to our partnership with Raising Cane's.

Lol.... They may have sold that many tickets, but butts in the seats probably was closer to an avg of 60,000. People were giving away tickets all over town this year. I thought we might be back to the five dollar heb tickets pre Mack brown era this year.

You don't get to claim that. You traded your jorts in for fsu apparel for at least 2 of those years. So it's actually only 9 at best. You were probably still sporting miami xxxl jerseys and throwing the U signs during meyers first year so probably only 8 to be realistic.

I think what you are seeing is a drop in attendance for all sports college and pros. People just can't afford this type of entertainment right now. They are pricing themselves out from where the normal blue collar worker can't afford to attend. JMO though.


Not to forget, scum bag ticket brokers buying them up, and scalping them online.

Texas A&M attendance less this year because there are less seats.

Not able to have a game this year with 110,000+ in the stadium.

You are one mad little bitch.

So I got you banned a time or two. Move on man.

I own you it's ok. Don't go having an aneurism when you see a comment from me,

When you get pissed at seeing my comments and the flashbacks of pain and isolation you were inflicted with, just remember Butch Jones is still your head coach.

That should relieve some pressure.

Hey now, the number of fairweather Bama fans in the panhandle (AKA Lower Alabama) has always been significant, and has only grown by leaps and bounds. Don't forget them.
