SLU @ Louisiana Attendance Prediction Thread

[HoustonCajun]

And in the years after our first bowl wins, we averaged 24,000-25,000 per game. Even when important conference games were at home, good weather etc. we still had trouble drawing bigger numbers.

IMO, it has to do with the conference we are in, the resultant level of competition, the perception with the Acadiana fan base of our lower G5 status, the lack of atmosphere at our games, and the overall fan experience from attending our games. The potential is there. All of the above has to change. And, on top of that, we need to be winning and not just over SE LA and ULM.

We need to be the second best team in the state period. Getting embarrassed by tech these last two years didn't help.

Good summation.

True. Not just by Tech.

I really hope Tech agrees to some home and homes in the near future. I love to hate those guys...it's a good rivalry.

Anyone hear approximately how many tickets SLU fans sold? What would be your guesses as to how many fans they bring? What type of crowd do y'all think they will bring, compared more to Nichols/Northwestern or McNeese/Southern ?

Most SLU fans will be in New Orleans to watch the Tigahs. They are LSU fans first and foremost. I'm guessing more like a Nicholls crowd

we need to have over 20K there on a night like they are predicting. Anything less would be a huge dissappointment.

My prediction is 24731
