road trip can be a party...it's all about priorities

I was there. It was fun.

Last years play was tough to watch. A few years ago, things were looking better until June completely gave up. As a fan base that has been beaten down so much, it is hard to get excited. I don't think anyone was expecting much this year from the spot JJ left us in, but they are lightyears better than I expected. The wins will come sooner than later and so will the fans. We had a hard time getting the students to stay at our home games, much less travel. They have already made a big improvement in that area.

Worst part about being at that game...the traffic leaving was brutal. 45 minutes just to get to I-30.

Awesome that this turned into an attendance thread. Good thing too - we have never talked about attendance before.

we have never talked about attendance before.

Our uniforms looked better too.

Any thoughts on the band?

SMU has built a ton of enthusiasm over there in Dallas and that makes all of us better. Awesome for all of us.

[SMU89]

There were more than a few usual road warriors missing, but the most glaring absentees were the students.

Agree. Lot of "red seats" empty for TCU.

[Mustangs35SMU]

And yet TCU fans and Baylor fans seem to be able to make the commitment for those 6 Saturdays in the fall.

Pretty easy thing to do when you're coming off a season where you were both in the National Title conversation and again this season as well (plus being ranked in the top 5) compared to coming off a season that ranks as one of the worst in all of college football history offensively at least.

Time is what it's going to take to build it up. Games like the first half vs Baylor and last night will only help us going forward on the field and in the stands. It's the same thing June got angry over, one win over a ranked team isn't going to bring EVERYONE out like we want. It's going to take multiple wins and competing for conference titles etc etc and getting in that picture where the national media can't ignore us.

We traveled very well for the game at aggy with the botched onside.. Several student buses etc. Ditto the first game of season at Baylor not last year but what three or four years ago? We p!ssed down our legs both times. The 50-75 that post on this board can weather that, but most can't

[Pony147]

They should bring back the student buses. Those were a great deal

[Digetydog]

They'll take notice of our crowds if they are as poor as the one tonight too. Need to show up strong the rest of the season, no excuses.

Definitely, I commend our fans that travelled but it is bs we could not draw better in a game that is 30 miles away. Embarrassing.

What are you people talking about? That was the third largest crowd TCU has had in that stadium.

[Puckhead48E]

First, anyone comparing current attendance for us and Baylor and TCU is a [deleted] moron. Just stop...talking, typing, breathing.
Second, the school must do more to entice the students to attend games like this. Busses, contests, prizes, tickets....hookers, blow, whatever it takes.
Third, the casual fan will come work success...measured in seasons, not just individual victories. HCCM knows this and has expressed as much. We need to worry about getting the alumni base and students there now, and let the team get the casual fan there soon. Heck, at current levels, we might start to get some UT converts from the DFW area.
