How many fans do you think we will have?

15 to 20k max. Still a ton of tickets for sale at decent prices. It's a tall order IMO to ask for a fanbase the size of ours to travel to a bunch of postseason games.

I'm holding out on the NC game or I'm staying home and saving the money. If this wwee in the middle of the summer and not post Christmas, then I'd consider dropping the cash for three of us to make it. Plans for ND next year.

The opponent has a **** ton of fans as alumni and then those who got on the bandwagon as they've been pretty **** good through the years.

We'll see and fortunately the fans in the stands aren't what determines the outcome.

probably 3-5k random A&M fans who bought their tickets before our game when they were sky high and figured they might as well go now because reselling them wont get most of their money back

Literally this
One of my closest friends who I went to game last week with is a die hard Aggie and had already purchased CB ticket along with thousands of others. Now he knows he won’t get his money back and since the game isn’t far being in Dallas and he knows several people there he says he will probably just go to game. It will be a lot of that. I can also see a lot of OSU fans arrogantly thinking they breeze by this game and save their coin for Tempe and Miami.
 
It’s gonna be a morgue in there. Good for us after last week. Zero wind, zero noise. A nice, calm, offensive friendly environment for our QB who doesn’t exactly thrive in chaos. I expect Beck to play very well. We just need to find out a way to protect him. I was very concerned with the seemingly lack of preparation last week. A&M did exactly what they always do on 3rd down and we had zero answers for it. The optimist in me is gonna chalk that up to A&M being literally one of the best 3rd down defenses of the last decade (it’s true) and us being a little overwhelmed by the environment.

Carson and Shannon, just figure out a way to get me to 20. If you can get me to 20, I’ll be in that ***** chewing my nails in the 4th quarter cause it’ll be a good football game and we’ll have a **** good chance to win.

Just curious. Why do you think it’ll be a morgue and no noise?

Go check the secondary market. They’re giving away tickets in happy meals.

No noise is obviously an exaggeration. There will be plenty of taint fans there. But compared to the atmosphere in College station it’ll be like a poetry reading in Central Park.
 
I was at the SMU game. There was at least 10k there for that game. I can’t imagine less than that for a playoff game when the tickets are relatively cheap. A lot of Canes fans in Dallas.

Now, if we win that game, I expect the semi final in Arizona to be a rough showing from both fan bases. A lot to ask Miami and Georgia/Ole Miss fans to travel to the other side of the country for another neutral site game. It’s actually ridiculous.
