Red Raiders vs Bulls

[southsideguy]

If you have a football game and nobody shows up did it happen?

Ask SMU

[southsideguy]

We know the Frisco Bowl did not happen because SMU did not have a coach that they liked, the bowl was beneath them, the opponent should have been a higher ranked team and blah, blah blah............................  I thought TTU traveled better  then what showed up for the game.

Official attendance 28,623

Hard to get a big showing for a 6-6 team with a lame duck coach. I think many of them stayed home to protest Kliff keeping his job.

there is no way 28,623 were at that game.

It legitimately looked like less than 3,000 human beings.

Yes. That had about 3,000 people in it.

All of these bowls have had the worst matchup scenarios this year. A UNT TECH game in HOD would have drawn 40,000. I bet HOD gets 25,000 with Utah and whoever they are playing. La tech in Frisco was okay but why not put them in Fort Worth or Shreveport against FSU. Southern miss vs Troy would have made more sense. I had a blast in New Orleans but the matchups in destinations seem all screwy this year.

Weather was bad yesterday too. I think that game usually gets locals.....but I'm sure they stayed home due to the rain....I was thinking about going but changed my mind....

[TreeFiddy]

It will be very interesting to see the turnout at the Independence bowl. I know a lot in here said we would send 20k+ there, but I am thinking USM nation will struggle to send more than UNT sent to New Orleans, and the game is easily driveavle for USM fans.

As it almost always seems, the weather for the Indy Bowl is not supposed to be good (41 degrees and overcast at kickoff).

If we were playing Tech in the HOD there would way more than 40k. Frisco would have sold out if we were there. We would have had good turnout in Shreveport or Fort Worth too.
