as i posted yesterday in a thread


Anytime there is a ton of excitement or some type of "unknown" or "unexpected" element, it helps, like Bama having a well-known new coach....if Miles left and we got a premier coach to take his place I guarantee you the Spring Game attendence would be higher....but, I'm fine with National Championships and 40k at the spring games


ditto.

when saban left there was a good fan fair for miles, and the spring game attendance was still low his first year.

i said a premier coach, at the time of miles' hiring, he was not well known at all, if it had been a spurrier, i guarantee the spring game attendance would have shot up over 60k

not sure about this. i was in school here at that time, and most tiger fans were very nervous that les had gotten in over his head. at the very least, fans were very disappointed that lsu didnt hire a bigger name.

I know. Us Gumps have had nothing to get excited about lately.

I'm pretty sure there will be about 92,000 at the spring game this April if the weather is nice and we have a 13th national title.

Leave it to a fan base whose "fans" fled Tiger Stadium by the end of the 3rd Qtr for every game except one (Florida) to mock a fan base who show up in droves for their spring scrimmage.

Douchebag. You might want to check our record over the last two years. What are we? 25 and 2? Playing for the national championship?

Have fun getting your arse kicked in your "kissing your sister" bowl game.

"All but 15000 tickets sold for $95.00 a pop"

Shows you how dumb the Huskers fans are. They pay 95 to watch a so-so team. Bama Fans get to watch at our game the EVENTUAL #1 team scrimmage and 92000 strong!!
