Turnout for Saturday's Game

Re: Turnout for Saturday's Game

I find it pretty amusing really that all the Bison fans complain that our administration won't put the game on TV but few of the Jackrabbit fans are saying the same thing. I guess the admin were just shortsighted and ignorant, considering we are expected to possibly break the attendance record this weekend.

What was Oien thinking?

No joke. I though all 3,200 of us were going to get frisked. The officers were all over.

And on a totally unrelated topic, I'm glad the checkerboard end zones were back.

I was wondering what the two UPD were looking for. They looked like they were on a mission.

Attendence 17,139.

Re: Turnout for Saturday's Game

Just thought everyone would like to know, but since I am from a very deep agricultural background, and I know this statistic, did you know that South Dakota is the Number 1 Bison/Buffalo slaughtering state in the U.S.. It's true no other state harvests more Bison/Buffalo than South Dakota. Shouldn't change this Saturday, SDSU wins 34-31.

Most Bison fans are looking with the perspective of four out of five home games televised, while breaking the average attendance record for a season.

But it's pretty easy to televise a game when you know you are going to be selling out most of your games. We unfortunately don't have the luxury.

Absolutely right BTownJack! Rep points for you. Every Bison ticket purchaser is money in our pocket, and no out-of-pocket expenses for SDSU. We'll take the TV when it is right, but not this time!! All you Bison complainers, should spend your time getting car pools together to come down and join us!! See you Saturday.

Re: Turnout for Saturday's Game

Will there be more Bison or Jack Fans at Saturday's game. Judging by last Saturday i'm going with Bison fans

I'm a big NDSU homer and there will be a lot of us at the game... but SDSU will have more fans in season ticket sales alone.

Oh the students will be there. There were jersey parties all over town, with student sporting SDSU apparel. At the Football Pros, Cheerleader Hoes party I was at we even got a #*^K THE BISON chant started. Good fun in the city of Brookings Friday night.

Just stop already. Don't remind me how fun it was to be in college again.

I asked the 150 students in one of my classes whether they were going. I'm thinking about 2/3 raised their hands. I ask them before most games, and typically it's about 1/4 of them. So by that measure (it's a general ed class that draws from all over campus) the students seem excited.

Re: Turnout for Saturday's Game

The momentum at SDSU is really on a roll. Today is a great example. I've not seen this much excitement about Jackrabbit football in many years. WBB, WVB exploding with excitement.

Today the press conference at 10:15 will announce another 6M to start the upgrade work at CAS. 1M from Dana and 5M from FPB I hear.

Next spring we will see in excess millions and millions of dollars worth of construction on campus.

Keep it going Jacks fans! Its good to be a Jackrabbit.

Go big, Go blue, Go Jacks
