Tulsa Game Attendance Predictions

[KRAM1]

So, what does everyone think the attendance will be for Saturday's home opener? I hope we get 20,000 plus. That would sem to be a decent crowd given where UNT has been drawing the last year or so. Does anyone have any idea about student attendance? Anyone attend the Dog Pound T-Shirt exchange or has that happened as yet? I don't recall the date, may be later this week. But, does nayone know if there is any "cahtter" about the game in the dorms, frat and sorority houses, campus organizations, Talons, etc., etc.? If we get a good student turnout this could be a great opening attendance game...

And, how many of this board will be at Fouts Saturday. My bride and I will be there, and we'll be there early for the pre-game fun! Can't wait...

FILL FOUTS FIELD!!!!! GO MEAN GREEN!

Anything less than 25k would be a disappointment.

How many games have we ever been over 25K for in the history of the stadium since it was added onto in 1994? I think 20K would be great.

[Keith7]

I'm going to go with 23,472

[KingDL1]

26,782 in attendance

[GoMeanGreen1999]

24,923 will be there. Plus or minus a couple of thousand.

For the last Tulsa game, we had over 23,000

The weather could be a factor. Should be clear, but if it's pouring that's going to discourage a lot of folks.

If it's clear, I think about 22,000.

25,000 on the head.

Um. 21,075.79

[foutsrouts]

TV's gonna hurt. I'll be there, but even I am tempted to enjoy it in front of my 73 inch Mitsubishi. Hope you guys are right about the 25k.

We were also coming off of our 4th straight conference championship team when we last played them here. Trust me, though, I want you to be right and for us to have 25K or more. That would be great.

Over 23,000 maybe over 25,000.

The home season opener usually draws well so 18-20K North Texas fans is probable.

Tulsa has been very successful since the last time the 2005 game and will bring many more fans than 2005, possibly 4-6K depending on weather forecast. It's also the closest road game for the Tulsa fans but many may forego the trip since they also play at SMU next month. This game would have been better for Tulsa and North Texas if it were played in the alternating years in which they don't play at SMU.

I see this as being an excellent series for both schools. It's financially lucrative, and it gives recruiting exposure in the right areas. The only bad thing about it are the butt kickings that we have received in recent years. (I still can't believe; favored to win and lost by over 50. Not too often that happens.)

Well, at least Cedrick Hardman set the NCAA single game sack record by recording 11 one afternoon against Tulsa in 1969.

The QB must have just decided to lie down every time he saw him coming!

EDIT: No offense, but are you sure that's accurate? Wikipedia is by no means perfect, but it says quite differently.

That was a very strange game. We scored first on a safety and all but shut them down in the 1st Qtr, then it was off to the races on the back of that badass tight end. Then there was that craptacular 4th and eternity series. Amazing.

21,000 or so.
