    Like I said, we will have to claw to get to six wins with this pathetically weak schedule and 7 home games. This is Holtz 5th year. If you can still put a positive spin on this year, you really need to be in sales.

    Rice with 1-7 record had close to 20,000 fans at their game. We couldn't get that playing USM. Probably will not get 20,000 at our Homecoming. Our fan base such a fragile piece of work.

    I agree but Rice is in one of the largest cities in the world. Not quite apples and oranges.

    They announced 20,000??? One would think the Rice scholars could count better. Please, someone post pictures of the 20,000 at the Rice game, just to make TechFanno1 feel better.

    I was at our game last week. Our announced crowd 17,000+??? was wrong too. So your point is what?

    Rice fans say the attendance was very sparse..

    Had we not lost against UAB I would have expected 21,000. Had we also won at SC I believe 24,000 would have been possible

    My point was that I wouldn't measure the fragility of our fan base by comparing it to the crowd at Rice today. I agree with you though--our announced 17,000 last week was inaccurate; just not as inaccurate as Rice's announced 20,000.

    Pulling out a win at the end against air would count after what has happened in the last month.

    It is something to build on, but it is a long way from what will be needed to beat North Texas.

    Tech could actually try to give their fans something to be excited about rather than hiring another the son of a legendary coach.

    Where was this 20K crowd hiding? Watching the video there might have been 10K fans.

    But hey- we won another game!!!

    I was at the game this afternoon. Even a figure of 10,000 would be generous in describing the attendance at Rice Stadium today.

    Nope. We expect 25K every game to come and watch the product Holtz and company are putting out on the field. Why I'm not sure, but if I find out I'll let ya know.
