No, but I have been to Central Michigan and Western Michigan during lean years and they still had decent turnout of students. Maybe it’s a regional thing, but logistically, it can’t hurt, haha. 

SMU is empty even when they are good. Hasn't our attendance been higher then theirs recently?

Why are we still debating the need for an OCS?

 

USF has to invest AND win... SDSU, UCF, Cincy, and Houston demonstrated this. 

 

The disparity will only grow every year that we are on the outside.

I don't know in the prior posts whether we were debating whether we need an OCS ( we clearly do), but whether it would increase attendance marginally or significantly. I think the latter question is interesting  to debate.

I rather have 30k in a 35k stadium, then 40k in a 65k stadium.  
 

Also, I am pretty sure they will design it to be expandable.  They have said that one side will be open, that an easy place to expand.

Yes. USF attendance is strong compared to our AAC brethren

Amazing considering how absolutely horrible we have been for years. Get winning and the ocs will be packed often.

Hopefully they go with like a 38-40k capacity stadium maybe with berm seating can fit 45k max

I don't want to go all Joey Knight on you but our attendance is pitiful.  Number of tickets distributed is pretty good though.

Our attendance is strong compared to 99% of G5 schools

But it doesn't stop people from ragging on the fans .... (see above)

And all that really matters when discussing attendance ....
