UL does tickets sold plus students scanned

And for baseball they don't even scan or count students.

Let's just all say in unison.....THEIR IS NO CONSISTENCY. I have said it many times. You need turnstiles. One go through, one counted....end of story.

I have a son that went to almost all games and they just looked at it and sent him in.

Well, they will always count tickets sold so turnstiles are useless. But they should add to tickets sold students scanned in. And maybe it they added a bonus point or too for grades for some type regular attendance that can be grabbed from the scan it could get more of them there.

Yes, because if I'm an employer I'd be thrilled to death to know that that engineering graduate that I think was a "B" student was actually a "C" student who liked attending football games. Exactly the qualifications I'm looking for when hiring for my mission critical project.

It stopped raining around 3:00 and never rained a drop during or after the game until early morning. I know because I live in the shadow of the stadium. Great weather for a game. cool and calm......so if you don't come to the game because of rain, that was a poor excuse.

It rained for a few hours straight before the game and then again prior to and about 30 minutes after kickoff. Temperature was great but disagree with your assessment of the rain.

Yes because a persons life productivity should be judged by if they were a “B” or “C” student based off of a system made up by other people. If you are looking at someone’s grades when hiring someone you are doing it wrong anyway

So, you're telling me, in general, there is no difference between the "A" student and the "C" student. I certainly agree that grades are not the only consideration, but they are part of it. And, as an employer, I would want to know that the grade was based in part on sports attendance.

This...and id hope a manager at an engineering firm can get a good grasp on ones work before getting to final design review stage...

So then all those students burning the midnight oil should just mellow out, because their grades really don't matter.....

Here's a couple of more reasons why attendance was low...IMO:

1.Labor Day weekend. Lots of people went away for the weekend.
2.FCS. I don't care who the FCS opponent is, it's still FCS. Hard to get excited.

Hats off to Grambling...they traveled well. Good luck the rest of your season.
