Southern @ Louisiana Attendance Prediction Thread

[zephyr]

Thank you for the kind words of welcome. As someone has suggested, you guys just might want to take it easy on the Jags, being that you are the mighty and powerful team that you are, and we the lowly team that we are, and take your frustrations out on La. Tech the following weekend. That way it wont seem like the "big boys" are bullying the "little leaguers." A score of, say 44 to 26, would make it look as though you had mercy on us. Whata you say! After all, we will account for nearly 20,000 of those Cajun Field seats. That should buy us at least a little mercy. Dont you think!

Yeah, there is no shot at you guys bringing 20k to our stadium. You don't bring that to your stadium. I'm thinking around 5,000-6,000 maybe

I think they will bring 10k

[angeleast]

again fellas, these idiots are trolls. They crawled out of the sewer, through the manhole, and has risen up to try to aggravate us. True Southern fans are not message board hounds, period.Also Jags fans have a lot more class and understand that any opposing teams boards are gonna support their home team.

Ticket master send help. At least 20,000 Jags. Do I need to post the pic from last time lol.

As long as it's a pic of the scoreboard.

You might can smack McNeese about their attendance, but our level of fan support is pretty well established. We averaged over 20K at home last year, third most in the state. I won't guess as to how many fans we will bring, but I'm sure we'll be more than well represented in the stands.

Is that 20k after halftime?

That's cool... and we're glad to host you guys. I still believe, regardless of good weather or not, you will have about 20% of the fans in attendance. If we top out at 42k, you'll have just over 10k of that crowd. I think you would have had another 5k if we hadn't sold so many to our own already. It isn't a matter of SU fans not knowing to buy tickets in advance. It is a matter of so many UL fans that are more interested in attending our games than they were in 2009.

No doubt, your fans support the band very well. It's just that our support had increased so there may be less seating available to your fans this time.

LOL that's cute, I'm starting to see where RaginEd's sarcasm came from. I'll be sure not to respond in kind, lest I too be labeled a troll, but in any case, there's a good reason the sale of the tickets was limited to this week. Don't get me wrong, it was an absolutely brilliant thing to do, but it was done for good reason nonetheless.

You might think its cute, but it's based on experience the last time SU visited Cajun Field. About half the SU crowd left after the band's halftime performance ended. The SU football fans stayed until late in the third, early fourth when the outcome was obvious. Still a good crowd regardless of why they attended.

Are you implying that we purposefully held tickets back so that Southern wouldn't get a chance to purchase them? Is this an alternate universe where one week isn't enough time for Southern fans to buy tickets? Do you need two weeks to figure out if you are gonna haul your ___ to a football game? No...that ____ is cute.

I agree that there's far more interest in your program than there was when we last played, and the growth of the team under Hudspeth has been remarkable. That being said, even 10K would be an impressive showing and a good sign of our level of fan support.
