How many were sold for UTEP - do you know?

I don't know mrydel, that post kind of sounds wine(e) to me or is that cheese I smell?

Either way I am definitely aged.

we were very close to a sell out. I don't know the final count off hand, but the last number I remember hearing was about 1,500 shy of a sell out.

Debbie downer, probably predicting us to lose by 30 also. Saying we will have less people than UTEP game is ridiculous.


Not debbie downer just being realistic, unfortunately. That's the problem with teams from so far out of our area and no reputation. UTEP travels better than UCF and we may sell more tickets than 22K, but how many will be at the game?
We will win....where did you get that I predict a loss?

Through two home games, we are averaging 23,387. That number may be about right for UCF. With good weather and good pub over the past two weeks, this could tweak higher. Make sure to bring your wife AND your girlfriend.

I hope we get 26-28,000. It would be mostly SMU fans and would be loud.....both of mine are coming to the game...but just not together.

biggest game at Ford in a long time and I do not expect UCF to bring many. This is an opportunity for SMU fans to step up and show we can put 30k plus into Ford with the vast majority of fans being SMU fans for a change

all of us can effect this in a big way - we are all part of email groups having nothing to do with SMU - and I have heard dozens of people act like they would be interested in going to see the team this year. Kick off is 2:30. Boulvard will be rocking by noon. Emails your friends and tell them to get there - would great way to entertain kids also.
