Attendance

Wing looked great! We are really fortunate to have such a great Stadium!

[Matt from A700]

Now our record crowd is going to be in a loss for another seven years...

[NorthTexasWeLove]

Kiss that attendance good bye. Thank the coaches while you wave.

Crowd was fantastic and for the most part stayed for the entire game.  LaTech traveled well.  It’s always so much better when the opponent brings their band.  Hopefully enough people who hadn’t been to a game in a while were entertained enough to make a return visit.  This team deserves it.  

[Mean Green Matt]

Its awesome we got to 30k, but that makes the loss feel even worse. Huge missed opportunity on so many levels. Missed it all by a foot right on a FG attempt. 

[CaribbeanGreen]

Such a missed opportunity. Damn. 

[Felozano]

Great crowd!  We had our chances to win, but didn’t. We shall see if this game will keep the masses craving more, or if the outcome soured them.  Still a lot of games to play. #reset

Listening to the peasants talk I think it's still old Denton. I think it's gonna take years of winning to be even on Marshall level of attendance.

 Do you guys just sit at home and jerk off to pictures of apogee with fans in the stands? They played their asses off and it was a great event to attend. I guarantee nobody left and said to themselves that this is the same old UNT losing football games. We’re 4-1 and any person who thinks this is classic UNT football is an idiot.

This.  So much this.

The casaul unt is very easily swayed not to come to games. We had a great crowed and could have kept 30k+ crowds coming.  I am afraid we blew it.  Going undeafted hype was what got people coming to the games. That is gone now. I don't expect 22k for our next home game not UAB.  Sorry I forgot Google has our schedule backwards.

Agree this is a great team....but unfortunately this was a lost opportunity.

I expect 0 for UAB. 22K for Southern Miss...If we're lucky. It will be a let down crowd for sure. This team has undefeated talent. This staff has 1 loss talent...as of now. 

[NTXAlum2016]

Your expectations need to be a little more realistic. 

[Dawg1984]

Apogee Stadium is a fantastic facility. Great crowd. Loved the energy your fans bring. That was a whale of a game. 

[NTXAlum2016]

WE LOST BY TWO POINTS ON A LAST SECOND FIELD GOAL BLOCK. The game was entertaining to the very last play and UNT looked like the more dominant team. Had FIne been 100% healthy that 4th quarter then I have no doubt the offense would've done what they usually do. Nobody is going to be mad about that or stop going to games because of it.

Of course, all of this talk is mute if we don't fumble the punt on our own 10 yard line and give them an easy TD right before the half. That decided the game right there. We made too many mistakes and they didn't make any.

So we have to go undefeated every season to have fans?

This!  I believe I'm correct in saying LaTech had only one penalty and zero turnovers.  They played a flawless game and yet we still had a chance to win. 

I hate the outcome, but if a person wouldn't want to come to another game like tonights then they just don't like football.  That was a great game in a great atmosphere.

Have you had a conversation with your normal run of the mill UNT student in the last year or two? I have. And I can say, from my very small sample size, they aren't the biggest fans of football. Like, they will never be die hard dudes or donors. Haven't ran into any, actually. So, losing will push them back into the art studio or scarf weaving seminar.

I'm sorry, but the whole "Kiss that attendance goodbye" attitude is exactly what WILL kiss that attendance goodbye. 

We lost by 2 points to a good team. We'll crush UTEP next weekend and return home with a 5-1 record. Sorry, but the hype train doesn't slow down because of one loss. The students have absolutely shown up every home game this year and that's going to continue.

In true North Texas fashioner tuebedvawsy thousands of fans for the rest of the year. .
