Reasons for 2023 Football Optimism

[Turbine]

So if we played Ole Miss and NMSU at CF we would get the same crowd? GTFO

The conversation was focusing on plausable reality, suddenly you shifted to a current impossibility.

Different G5 schools can all guarantee a certain base, some will bring more, but there is a base guarantee.

The only guarantee is Lafayette and the surrounding areas don't care about UL football.

NMSU or any MAC team brings the same crowd size.

Outside of a couple of years under Hudspeth, this program has never consistently drawn major attendance numbers consistently. Go look at the Top attendance games at Cajun Field and you will see Louisiana Tech, McNeese State, Southern and UNT. And yes, New Mexico State. This is an LSU town, and always will be.

You’re right. They care about lsu football. A shame really

[Big Buds]

Ok UCF or NMSU would bring the same crowd? Doubt it.

You told me to GTFO! Read next time, homie. UCF is P5!

I agree I have always said a lot of Lafayette $$$ goes to Baton Rouge. Some of the folks on this very site spend more in Baton Rouge then Lafayette.

It's been that way for years. No scheduling will change that fact.

I agree.

The topic was attendance numbers being influenced by opponents.

History has been clear, your statement is not etched in stone.

Fan interest can be cultivated with a little effort and energy.

With silence and lazyness your statement is true.

We took a vote and rejected you. Try to find another club to join.

I’ve pointed out before that you are an idiot. I’ve also pointed out that reading comprehension isn’t your strong point. Again, I’m not wanting to be in your “club”.

[lafman1]

Yeah the RCAF controls the teams we play and the crowd size. LMAO

The money grabbing RCAF ‘program’ does indeed control the crowd size. You are just to dumb to realize it.

"LSU town" is defeatist and so ingrained in the psyche that it is virtually irrelevant.

Even if someone claimed 1/3 of Tiger Stadium is filled with Acadiana residents (not possible) there is still untapped potential for Louisiana growth.

So much potential, just add effort.
