Just my view.UCF lost its second game of the season. Who said anything about running the table?(And why am I asking you this as if you are actually going to provide an intelligent response?)

UCF crowds are always late to the game(tailgate a little too long) so you can't judge right at kickoff and unfortunately when your coach punts near midfield down 21 in the 4th that will lead to an early exit for many. 40K purchased, probably 37-38 K butts in seats at some point in the game, here's some pics another UCF fan posted from the SMiss game west side facing towards student section east side north endzone/visitor section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sound is still very loud on the opposite end goal line. Before I had season tics, I usually sat there Overall, I think the sound for opposing teams is loud and distracting. A relative of mine is a coach for Univ. of Buffalo. After the game last year he commented about the general crowd noise making it difficult to call plays( in fact vs. USM the USM QB this weekend was at the line constantly yelling at his O line to verify the call) and that the band made audibles almost impossible.

Wow....must be great that the hometown paper is run by nothing but Gators and hates everything about your program. I would say this is another area where UCF has us beat. They were up 14-0 on a beautiful fall day. Thousands of lame fans took that opportunity by not bothering to show up, despite the announced attendance of 40,358. The stadium looked about a third empty. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/college/knights/os-diaz-ucf-southern-miss-1114-20101113,0,505674.column Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pic shows a perfect example of that: And, honestly, our noon game this weekend is going to suck attendancewise, too, again, .... but the only reason some here bring this type stuff up here is because of your obsessed compadre who continues to yap over here, and elsewhere on the Internets, about attendance.

Good call, I'd never thought about it before but you're absolutely right about the bench seating looking more full than it really is. Obviously with those big gaps where there are no people, fans aren't exactly cramming in there, but from far away it looks the same whether fans are packed in tightly or not. With proper seats, you have a finite amount of space that doesn't magically expand just because there are fewer people than there could be.
