How was it looking on TV. Being there all I could tell was that our side was full and took up a good bit of theirs as well. I was proud of our fanbase last night

It was awesome.

What was even more impressive was after it was over and they were interviewing Freeze and Kelly and also when they interviewed Laquon. You could hardly hear them at all. All you heard was constant cheers and of course "One More Year" when Laquon was being talked to haha.

I swear the sound mic was next to our band bc it seemed like at times the only thing I could hear was hotty toddy and/or our band playing. "1 more year" was super clear too.

How did y'all feel the ok state fans were. I only had a argument with one. All the other ones I spoke to we're very nice and respected out program. Lot of them said we were by far top 3 team in the country. They knew they wasn't going to win.

Mrs. Rambler and I talked with a couple of Okie State fans in Mr. B's Bistro before the game. She was cool but he was a little chippy. The ones I saw in the Quarter seemed mostly OK.

Wondered the same. I was on row 31, under the overhang and couldn't see anything on our side at all. Their side looked less than 50% in the upper deck.

I was there, but I think it was about 65% rebels. Possibly a little more.

Loud as hell, everyone was drunk, every woman was hot.

Yeah on TV there looked like one little patch of orange. I think maybe black didn't really stand out. It looked more like 85-90% Rebels on TV.

Lol no it didn't. It looked about 60-65% on tv.


If it was 90% ole miss then we had more there than our own stadium capacity. Bjork said we had about 45k there and attendance was 72k

I'm glad you were able to decipher how many were there better than everyone else.

Didn't we take 50k to the BBVA bowl? What does our stadium capacity have to do with anything?

The question was what did it look like. As I said it looked like the entire crowd was wearing red and blue outside of a patch of orange in the lower level. As I stated on TV it was kinda hard to deciper OkSt fans wearing black because the red pops more.

I was there as well.. A more realistic number would be 75/25 imo

It looked like they filled up their section of the bottom deck but didn't come close to selling their allotment in the upper deck. Outside of their 1/4th of the stadium it was very heavily OM. It was close to 75/25.

I was in the upper deck of the endzone our band was in but on the other side of the endzone. We had 4 OSU fans behind us. They left to go sit in their 1/4 of the upper deck after the first quarter.

I agree. That's what it appeared to me as well.

Well our own athletic director estimated 45k there. Either we had about 65% of the fans there or the sugar bowl inflated attendance by 20k people.



Feel free to guess which one of those it could be.

I'm sorry I was under the perception that they asked what it looked like. You're the only one saying it "looked like" that amount. Maybe that is exactly what it was, but that isn't what it looked like on TV which is what the original question was.

From the crowd noise alone, you could tell it was a much larger Ole Miss crowd. I would think it was 65-70 % Ole Miss. They kept showing the same small section of OK State fans.
