I'm going to go ahead and guess it'll hover around 59k w/this being the first year in a long time that Pig has the chance to outnumber A&M fans in the stands.

My Arky relatives are pretty fired up for this one - especially since they broke the streak last year. I can see Arkansas putting 35k+ in the stands.

Im going to guess 60K+ as well. 60-62 area. Arky fans are definitely fired up after breaking the streak and there's enough loyal A&M fans to make the treck up there.

Having been to the game in Jerryworld all but two times its been held there, I can confidently say Arkansas has never come close to outnumbering A&M fans. Even from 2009-2011 when Arkansas had a top-10 caliber team, it was always at least 55-45 A&M. Some of the years when Arkansas was really bad it was closer to 65-35.

Last year was the closest I remember it being since the Sherman era.

When do we start playing on campus and cut Jerry out? That’s when I’ll start going again.

I don't think people really understand just how much of an advantage Jerryworld has been for us over Arkansas. Not only is the trip a lot shorter for our team, but our fans outnumber their fans locally by a longshot. Every single game, we have been the loudest and most hostile of the two fanbases. Our players also enjoy playing there. Why we would give up this advantage is mind boggling. Had this series been home and home, we would be 4-4 against them instead of 7-1 in the last eight years.

But of course, that point is moot now. With us getting LSU, Texas, and Mississippi State as permanent rivals, our yearly Arkansas series is coming to an end. Jerry Jones will probably try very hard to move the Arkansas vs OU series there as consolation.

Is this conjecture, rumor, or was something announced? Just curious. I've seen different assumptions / proposals, but if something was announced, I totally missed it.

You must be on some pretty good drugs. Both last year and this year they outnumbered us. The Ag's I hung out with all agreed and brought this up at our tailgate.

When you look across the field there is hardly any Ag's in their sections. On our side of the field there are quite a few. In the parking lots they have more fans tailgating too.
