I say sellout.....and it should, be if it is marketed right.  Everyone should want to come see the "Really Big Shooo" out of curiosity....

Big build up, big pep rally, maybe a very popular band or halftime celeb performance. What else?

As I pointed out in another thread, I got an email from RV and he assures me that there will be MORE promotion for the football team next year. I hope that means television, radio, and something to get those 33,500 students to fill the east side of the stadium.

Sellout.

But Hemi's are for kids, and women.

Put the Cummins Turbo Diesel in it, and I'm all for it! laugh.gif

Home attendance will be detemined by two factors. One, how badly did we get man handled by OU and secondly who are we playing. Even if OU kills us and the first home game is a lame opponent, I still look for 20,000.

It didn't hurt the SMU attendance too bad this year.

I don't see us getting a sell out crowd in front of a MAC team... (isn't that our first home game?) I would think about 25-28k.

In my opinion, here's going to be the difference. For the last two years we've had pretty good attendance for the first few games, but people got tired of seeing a slow offense that rarely won. I think after they see dodge-ball, we're going to start hooking them in.

I agree with Drex, lets not get carried away with sell-out talk. Those endzone seats will NEVER be sat in consistently.

In Price is Right style, I will say 20,001

No question on this one... The LARGEST crown in Fouts Field History!

Book It!!!!!!

......31,000+<><> *Standing Room Only......

NOTE: Lots of extra dragon/mean green and even some burn't orange-clad fans in this audience for the home football season debut of UNT Coach Todd Dodge--a very, very special night for Texas college football. smile.gif

* PS: Why not? Especially if they start selling season (& individual) tickets for this game now (or at least very soon--like at a real "Spring" Football Game played on a Saturday in the Spring)? cool.gif As soon as I can, I'll buy my tickets. Quite frankly, wouldn't want to miss out on this most historic event for the entire university family.

      🙄 like I have stated before DC under a lame duck coach is not a highly desired job for coaches with options.

      That is very subjective. Boise State or UNLV probably will get the G5 spot in the playoff over a one loss Army team. Louisville, SMU, Houston, Rutgers and Cincinnati left conference for greener pastures. So I don’t know who anointed the AAC as 5th, but the playoff committee isn’t listening to them. Army, a team brand new to the conference that came into the conference and dominated. They were independent juggernauts last year at 6-6 🙄. AAC is viewed as better than the MAC, CUSA and Sun Belt. But we certainly won’t be viewed as better than the reconstructed PAC 12 and right now it doesn’t look like we are viewed better than the current MWC.

      Football at The Dat next wrekend

      Don't if y'all know this or not.....but the last two years we've had Texas high school football games played in Louisiana. Both years the games have been at Turpin Stadium in Natchitoches. As a matter of fact, this year they hosted two games on the same day. (Daingerfield versus Newton, and Texarkana versus Port Neches Grove). Both games were last Friday.

      The exact same thing was probably thought by other fan bases about Eric, Seth, Dan, and any other head coach we’ve hired here.
