Simple premise, which game will have the most people and which the least and what's the number gonna be.
Price is Right rules are in effect.
Arkansas:
Least - UAB; We could be coming into that game 2-5 and having gotten thumped again against Bama and losing to Georgia in a shitty stadium in front of 44,000 tweaked out Wastelanders the attendance could be pretty weak. 62,303
Most - LSU; Even if we have another rough season we seem to always have a chance at beating LSU. It's not the day after Thanksgiving finally, we reserved that date for an opponent that could win their division and for a natural rivalry. LSU could easily be 6-4 coming into that game fresh off the Alabama game and may be caught looking ahead to Texas A&M and their renewed rivalry game on their traditional Thanksgiving night date. The Razorback faithful should be showing out in force for that game. 74,565

Least - UAB - Because, well, it's UAB.
Most - Alabama - We'll be 3-2 headed in to that weekend and it will most likely be the last time that we're over .500 on the season.

Most: Vanderbilt because it's homecoming and homecoming is a big thing at Mizzou.
Least: Arkansas because the game is on a Friday at 1:30 in the afternoon.
Seriously, who the frick thought a game on a WEEKDAY at 1:30 PM is a good idea?! Attendance will be baaadd for that one.

Yeah, a lot of the Mizzou grads I work with have said the same thing about the Arky game.

Presbyterian Blue Hose. Easily least attended.
Alabama or MSU will be most attended.

I hope not.
I'm trying to not get excited for football at all because well Brandon Allen is our QB. But when I look at the schedule and the changes in our opponent's rosters and the changes in our Defense.
I think there's 6 winnable SEC games out there for us. We catch Auburn too damn early and unless we're bringing in Wily Robinson to consult over the summer I don't think our guys will gel enough to win that game. Gus has always had very well prepared teams. You saw it first hand as well I, Shiloh teams clicked on a different level than us and they played more cohesive and of course with their advantages and contrast in style we couldn't prepare well enough.
If our coaches have any brains they'll go back and see what Wily did to shut Gus down and use that in their game plan. Their QB can't beat us through the air, but if there's any secondary that will jumpstart a Heisman campaign it's ours.

Friday after Thanksgiving too, isn't it?

This will be a Missouri problem apparently. Arkansas and LSU have always had big crowds for our game in that exact same time slot.

This is what SEC football is all about. Sacrificing family life for your school.

Easy...
Most- Auburn. It's their first trip to Athens after two consecutive seasons @ Auburn. The game is also going to be a redemption game in the eyes of our team and fans. 92,746.
Least- Troy. Start of a three game home stretch that includes UTk and Vandy. Fans will most likely be saving to go to those games instead of seeing the Men of Troy. Attendance ( We'll claim it as a sellout) But probably 73,246

I think so, yes.
I'm not trying to be dramatic, but I honestly think we won't break 60,000 for that game. I really think it'll be ~55,000 people in a 76,000 seat stadium. I mean really...that date and time is pretty baffling unless I'm missing something.

Unlike Louisiana and Arkansas, people have jobs in Missouri.

Auburn and Alabama will both beat the shite out of us IMO. I believe going in to the Bama game we will have beaten our two easy OOC opponents and then gone 1-1 in the state of Texas to have us sitting at 3-2.

How is that much different from the Saturday after thanksgiving? Does the one day really make that big of a difference?
Most regular jobs get that Friday off. I know I certainly do

Sorry you have hourly jobs that require you to work the day after Thanksgiving.
In Arkansas and Louisiana, that is called a holiday.

Well they must be pretty crappy jobs to have to work the Friday after Thanksgiving.
In saying that I'm pretty sure my job thinks I'm working that day, but I'll have the scowers from something the crazy aunt brought the day before.
