Very weak home schedule this year. Best game by far is the UVA game. VA Tech Ga Tech Lville are not very good. We used to play a much better home schedule when we were in the Big East

Are you on dope? Temple, Rutgers, and others were just as craptacular as what we are seeing now. The only difference between now and then is that due to conferences being significantly smaller back then teams had more opportunities to schedule good OOC games. Miami has fewer spots now to put legit teams, compared to previous generations. Miami played UF in Orlando, so fans that really wanted to see it could have. The conference slate is pretty lousy this year, but when your supposed good divisional game(VT) isn't good, it completely ruins the entire slate. VT is anywhere near good, people wouldn't care. A decent UVa and VT coming to Hard Rock, is more than enough, especially in a year where FSU isn't a home game.

I remember nooners against Rutgers drawing like 25,000 people topppps to the shrine that was The OB. People engage in revisionist history. Only remember the best of the way past while choosing to focus on the worst of the near past or current day.

The shoot from the Miami side facing toward the visitor side.

The visitor side is in the sun all day.

Only ******** sit in the sun on the visitors side hence the empty look.

Was looking at that during the game and thinking it must look horrible on TV. Visitor side in the sun was empty....rest of lower bowl was pretty full. I would guess 40-45k.

Go back and watch the glory days, when Miami was ELITE and playing people that they were expected to crush, the OB was spectacularly empty. The famous 58-0 ND game, attendance was crap that day, and that was with a Miami program stampeding toward a possible national championship, had Vinny not **** himself in the Sugar Bowl.
 
Wasn’t close to 52k, but definitely better than I expected. Keep winning and the fans will keep coming

I was telling my son yesterday about the upper level restrooms in the OB - you get caught in a line there you were going to miss a lot. I missed one of the five NFL Passing Records Danny broke in the last Monday night game against Dallas one season. But man, I still loved the place. As a kid, saw Joe Namath there when he had the Fu Man Chu in a pre-season game they brought our undefeated Charlotte (Punta Gorda) Jr High "Hurricanes" to a game. He trotted over to a bunch of us on the rail after the game and an interview and asked, "What did you guys think of the game?". That was cool as heck.

Take a look of the OOC games we played back in the 90's and early 2000's when we were in the Big East. What happened to those? This year's home schedule is a snoozefest.
