Opening week crowd predicitons
Let's hear them for your school.

With no tropical storm in the forecast, I'll say Memphis gets around 42,000 for Mercer.

All sellouts this season for UCF. Only 6% of the stadium is open not locked down by season tickets or student sections.

Congrats! What do you figure is the attendance number?

Meh. Labor Day Weekend. 3-9 last two seasons. We probably announce 38k, really 30k max actually in attendance.

We will be there. All 300 of us.

Tulane will have 21k sold tickets, though. They will make the coin necessary for the program.

Yeah, I don't expect much. We are opposite the Saints preseason game just two miles down the road and it's a school night.

The Hartford Courant just ran a story stating that UConn has only "distributed" 17,000 tickets for our game in 2 days. Mind blowing.

First game of the season against a ranked defending national champion and they can't break 20K?

Love to see UCF attendance after 7 straight losing seasons. I'd imagine it'd look something like this...

ucf attendance during 0-12 2015 was 30K+ so would be way way more than uconn. Different schools though, uconn averages way more in hoops and womens hoops.

Heard ECU season ticket sales are 12,000 which is the lowest since John Thompson 14 years ago.

Still, I expect 38,000-42,000 will be announced with 32,000-35,000 butts in seats.

Urm the real half time picture of UCF vs South Florida 2015. UCF announced something like 23-36k tickets sold and 27-28k actual attendance. There were less then 10k in attendance. Yet they speak truth. 05-stirthepot07-coffee3

ucf doesn't announce actual attendance, just tickets sold...so don't know where you are getting your figures from. For this game though tons of people either didn't go or left early. As usf fans know from 2014 getting stomped by your rival is no fun and not many can endure it.

At least make an effort...you can see 4 for the quarter in the picture and 44-3 was the final score.

Your school announced the 35-36k tickets sold and when pictures surfaced some on here posted the 26-27k actual attendance. I was there and it appeared to be less then 10k in the stadium.
