How long can they survive at that rate. I cringe when we have less than 30 K and fear for our survival.... but 5,428....please.

Dump Tulane and UAB football, add La Tech and Troy.

Close SUNWACUSA...

***Edit - as much as I would miss our 7th home game in N.O. when we play Tulane, I support this move as well. COuldn't be any worse than what we have now. Troy would definitely be an immediate upgrade.

Tulane's a keeper. Drop UAB, Marshall & UTEP. Bring the conference down to nine schools, as it should've been.

Where did you get the figure from? The ESPN stats and those in the morning paper had it at over 26,000.

Kick ass and get a Big East football invite. Play everything else in the Belt.

actual attendance...not tickets sold. venues such as the superdome actually count warm bodies.

Check out the slide show from BYU's web site:

Definitely not 29K, but I'm not sure about 5K, either. Someone on the La Tech board also quoted the 5428 figure, saying it came from the Baton Rouge paper.

Perhaps when we're dominating this conference, we can decide what we want? Just win... period. Not one more than you lose, but better than that. Make people outside the conference care, then our opinion on the conference matters.

=1 Baldy. Right now we can't demand anything.From the look of our performance, it will be a while before we can! Play like that against Tulsa, Houston, and East Carolina and we will be hoping for New Orleans Bowl.

Houston has proven to be a very good team. Tulsa appears to be less than before but still quite a good team. ECU hasn't shown crap just yet. They may be a top notch team but they've yet to show it this year.
