    Yeah, mad-sick props to the students. Obviously didn't show up like last week, but the came pretty strong.

    And loud. Involved. Dare I say obnoxious. Jawing back and forth with the Ohio players. Hadn't seen that in a while. May have laid some of the groundwork for the plethora of unsportsmanlike conduct calls.

    We likewise only used 3 of our 5 tickets. Also had a friend with three tickets who was unable to make it.

    All in all, better experience that I anticipated.

    Agree with student comments. They were into the game. And please don’t misunderstand my comment on attendance. All things considered it was decent. With much of our normal fans traveling in from outside Lafayette, mid week games really affect our numbers.

    The student section has always been a blast. I remember the ESPN 2 game against Kansas State that we won on a field goal. Student section chanted “jayhawk rejects!” *clap clap clap*. What a time

    Considering there was a home game less than a week ago, I thought attendance was acceptable. I expected more students, our weekend clock started on Thursday night back in the day...

    I agree I did expect more students considering game was on ESPN. Normally student section is pretty packed for national televised games

    Not much time to market game with only 4 days. Focus was on improving concessions experience. I expect a big push to get people to App game. We need to win the next 2 to have that be successful however. There will be 10 days between the game at South Alabama game and the Appalachian State game. Lots of time to get folks hyped.

    We win the next 2 and the Appalachian State game should set a record for the SBC highest attended conference game.

    But we shall see if Acadiana’s casual Cajun fans wants to be a part of the electric atmosphere.

    I agree, and my wishful thinking has them attending!

    As bad as a Thursday game is, Tuesday is 10x worse. Super difficult for App fans and out of towners to attend.
    Can you imagine the hype if this game was on a Saturday night?

    ESPN is desperate for content and they don't care who they have to throw under the bus to get cheap actors.
