Attendance Prediction vs Army?

[Ben Gooding]

This should make for an exciting game and attendance should justify this. I think this will be the season's largest crowd and the team deserves to be rooted on. 

Army sells out their allotment and then some. And this jolts interest into the casual. I expect another big student turnout given the direction of the season and the team trying to go undefeated at home. 

I'm rolling with 29.3K. 

[AustinFromUNT]

I’m thinking 25.2k

[greeneagle1]

Give me 30,156

[MeanGreenDan]

27,500

[golfingomez]

27K

[UNT 90 Grad]

I work with someone that went to West Point that is helping with their official tailgate.   I was disappointed to hear their tailgate event doesn’t end until after half time.   I guess tailgating well into game time happens everywhere. 

Nonetheless, I’m going with 24,680.

[TheColonyEagle]

The question is how many were there last Saturday solely for homecoming. The "once a year" attendee?

I don't know the answer to that but then I wonder how many will come in place of those that were there only for Homecoming and then will we get more? The 5:30 start should be good for students AND alumni that have kids doing Saturday stuff.

I'm going with 28K

[DeepGreen]

28,763

Every seat may not be sat in but I'm looking for the first sell out in Apogee history.

Best shot since the Apogee grand home opener to beat the record of 28,075 is this weekend.

Which one? heard they will have multiple different WP organization at the game.

I think everything lines up well for this to be a big crowd. Army is both good and interesting to the casual fan.  It’s the last home game in a season fans are just beginning to realize our  team is good.  Plus Army will bring a nice contingent of fans.  

Put me down for 29,900.

wow... K-State in 2010 didnt crack 23K?

[DeepGreen]

I have a feeling there will be plenty of Army fans, both civilian and ex/current Army types.  Several Military Reservations in the State of Texas too.  Should be a great game day atmosphere.

BEAT THE HELL OUT OF ARMY!

This has to be Denton crowds only.  Our top attendance when we were the home team was around 45,000 when we hosted Texas A&M at Texas Stadium.  

[oldguystudent]

40,000.  The 10,000 overflow sitting in the last remaining Fouts stands and watching on the old video board.

You’re asking more questions than I asked.  Hopefully most of them encourage folks to go into the stadium.  I hope for a big crowd.

Come on Messageboard Dad, step your game up.. Pulling a BTG with a lack of readiness on these questions! 

[@UNTSportsFan]

29,438

[EagleMBA]

I have analyzed all the factors I deem pertinent and am willing to state the following:

The probability is .9862 that the announced attendance will be 29,537.

You heard it here first!

[Venson]

I say complete sellout so 30,850. GMG beat Army.

I think Saturday is going to be a blast. DG!   

Hey!  You have an extra ticket?  I know (and you know) someone who could use it if you do.  He's changed his mind & wants to come to this game.

I've already purchased 2 on about the 30 yard line.  Old college roommate will be attending with me. 

GMG!

No extra ticket. I had to by a 3rd ticket so my daughter and son-in-law could attend with me.  Should be fun.

[GreenTexan13]

28,724. The weather is perfect, undefeated at home, our opponent is known to casuals, UNT are CUSA west leaders.
