Pretty sure this is the largest crowd ever in Ford. I have been to all of the big sale ones except the opening including the Armed Services Bowl and this is more.

He has more time to prepare for this game than the Hawaii Bowl, right!?! What's June's deal then? Getting blown-out in Game 1 and looking crappy is killing attendance momentum. Sure, June gets a lot of respect from those in the coaching circles...but who cares...the results suck. We have 2 minute drives and average less than 7 points a quarter...weeeeeeeee!

55% Tech fans is my guess.

50% is about right. by the way - we are the third smallest d-1 team in the country.

Rice, Tulsa, Wake Forest, are all smaller off the top of my head. I'm sure there are more.

Duke also has fewer undergrads. TCU has 1400 more undergrads and fewer grad students.
I thought the crowd would be more electric but west side was "polite." Students were strong. Sad when I'm the loudest in my section (103). On the goal line stand when the Tech players ran into each other, the crowd should have gone nuts. Instead I believe the next play Mayfield acted like he was Johnny Football and pranced into the endzone. Enjoyed the hustle the last minutes and too bad the Ponies couldn't punch the last one in. Better be ready for MSU. Just ask KSU.
