Wasn't worth the time...essentially said that JJ is expecting good things and that Ron Meyer thought we had a great opp. But finished the segment saying that Southlake Carroll and MNW was the biggest crowd that Ford has ever seen.

Is that even true? I know they sold it out, but was it the biggest attendance ever? I would think some of the Tech games and maybe the Kansas game would have beaten it.

It's not true. USAToday reports attendance of 31896 for the SLC-MNW game. That is the largest crowd Ford saw last season, but not the largest in GJF history.

The 2000 game against Kansas had an attendance of 32267. The largest attendance in GJF history was the 2004 game against Tech, which drew 34689.
