ULM announced a hard count of more than 21,000, don't remember exactly, at their first home game. I saw highlights and the stadium was pretty full. It would be embarassing to see us below that.

Probably half of that total was NSU fans, but I don't worry myself about the JUCO. We have enough to worry about ourselves.

0-2 with no superstar, no one to market and lean on for attendance. general apathy all the way around. a first-time wac team that is 0-4 draws no excitement from anyone. there is no way we put 15,000 in the stands. more like 12k -- i hope.

Say it ain't so professor...how much do you think our numbers would increase if you gave bonus points to your students for going to the game?

Apathy is a terrible thing. We (bulldog fans) have to pinch ourselves to see if we feel anything anymore. The bulldog populace has become desensitized to the point that they would rather go hunting than see a LaTech game. Wins would be a shot of adrenaline to get back the feeling and support we need from this area.

The student.

Not every curriculum offers a way to utilize a ball game. English teachers, however, could allow credit by assigning an essay such as comparing a story in one of the local papers with the student's own observations of the game. That is practical writing and great for getting the best effort from some students.

not too much. the students will show up. the diehards will show up. no one else will.

diehards will be there, even if several are boycotting. the students have been improving each of the past five years, and iexpect this year to be no different.

I agree...the students have been doing very well. I expect the east side to be rockin' as always...I'm getting more excited every hour...tailgatin' starts for us around 10 or so...Whoooohooooo!

And squirrel season, which is keeping two of my friends home. Hopefully the underclassmen show up in force.

We will be there. Don't forget to wear blue!!
