Rice Game Attendance now - with Homecoming!

I am upping my prediction to 24K. The media has helped get the word out that we still have a football team, and it's not bad. The 25 year lull thing is getting old, but is getting good mileage.

I have to suffer through the LSU-Alabama game this weekend. Got a kid interested in going to both schools. I gave my tickets to a relative that assured me they were going to the game. So the seats will be filled and i will be listening over my iphone.

I'n in Houston for a wedding Saturday. Have fun without me.

Unless it is your wedding, I don't see the conflict.

You raise a good point.

between 22 or 23k, I'm guessing.

15,475 in attendance for Rice - we only had 13,902 in attendance back in 2007 for our homecoming game against Rice when we were 1-8 prior to the game against Rice. Hopefully UTEP will bring 4,000 - 5,000 next weekend as between that and our winning record, 17,500 could be a realistic attendance goal. The Boulevard certainly had more than 15,000 on it yesterday. Any idea as to how many people never even made it into the stadium?
