Have a look at next year's home schedule:

Portland State (FCS)
Colorado State
San Jose State
Auburn
Mississippi State
Western Kentucky

Might struggle to get 35,000 at some of those.

If we win then people will come. Not hard to improve attendance when you’re winning.

Basketball gets regular sellouts. Can't remember the last football sellout. Maybe TCU last year.

You think beating Portland State means more people will want to attend the San Jose State game?

I was there. I cant remember if it was a sell out. I spent most of the day absolutely pissed, and i ignored my fiance the entire time while i sat yelling at bert to pack his shite and get the frick out.

My wife now says the corners of the stadium had empty seats. A bunch of tcu fans though.

We were 2-6 and facing another 11am start. That’s different than being 2-1 or 3-0 going in to that SJSU game in a fresh season.

They'll sell their normal 40k season tickets. Attendance will probably suck, getting KB will help.


Go worry about filling BWA arena this season so that they don't have to hang a black curtain over the upper section.

I see 3 or 4 wins. Mizzou in the rock is guaranteed, assuming meth head doesn't get our qb killed

If the administration wasn't mentally ill the home schedule would be...

1) Portland State
2) CSU
3) SJSU
4) Texas A&M
5) Auburn
6) Mississippi State
7) Western Kentucky
8) Missouri


- Michigan backing out is unfixable but Missouri and A&M are fixable and hurt recruiting. Screw the Dallas and LR games! Screw them all!

Obvious answer would be Portland state at WMS but Little Rock has a hard time selling. Tickets and needs a marquee sec opponent to be able to do so.

Move the Texas a&m game back to campus. Get long term deal to play Texas in basketball in Dallas

NWA had the #1 team in the SEC and the nation and could barely get their stadium half full

Why is that? If the hogs are playing at home they should always draw a good crowd.
