The grey looks horrible on TV, I couldn't tell who was who
WTF idea was it to wear gray?
Saw the official box score listed 13,227. It looked well short of that--maybe 9,200 in person..at the most? Whatever. We do have a problem and its called winning games we are supposed to win. Blue Raiders have had way too many disappointments over the years to sustain high attendance. Conference championships would go a long way towards curing weak support. Another 7-5 or 6-6 (assuming we get there in 2015) is not going to help the attendance department.
We are under .500 since moving to 1A, FBS or whatever it's called. Our men's basketball team has been to 1 ncaa tournament in the last 20 or so years. Yes we "compete" but you can't possibly expect people to fill up the stands with those results.Disagree. Our fans are pathetic. We have been competitive in football and hoops prior to leaving the belt and since joining cusa. There really is no excuse not to support our teams.
I don't expect it out of our fans but there are plenty of other programs with much less success that out draw us by thousands. We can complain about mediocrity on the field but I would be ecstatic if our fan support could reach the level mediocre.
There we no more than 5K butts in the seats. I was there, right in 2HH at the 45 yd line, my section was maybe 20% full.
Are you the red headed guy with a metal singer voice? I'm not joking if that is you. You need to start a rock band.

Fill? Maybe not. Half way decent crowd with perfect weather? Absolutely. Let me rephrase that. I don't expect it because I have been around long enough to have very low expectations of our fans but we absolutely should. Local high schools that win 2-3 games a year draw a much higher percentage of their alums and students. It's not like we have been habitual losers. Our last three years are 8-4, 8-4 and 6-6. That's not sub .500. Basketball is even better but attendance is even worse. Do I think we are gonna be the hottest ticket in town with those results? No. Do I think we should be next to last in CUSA in season ticket sales with those results? Hell no but we are. We have pathetic fans. That's my issue. There is no sugar coating it. No matter how you feel about our on the field/court results our results in the stands are worse.We are under .500 since moving to 1A, FBS or whatever it's called. Our men's basketball team has been to 1 ncaa tournament in the last 20 or so years. Yes we "compete" but you can't possibly expect people to fill up the stands with those results.
I wish, !
No I am 51 year old bald guy with good friends...speaking of hair, did you see the FIU kickers hair when he took his helmet off?
