Michael,
You know that Jim's version of long term planning is where he will go for lunch!

You must have never ridden Harleys with Hogdawg! He could probably make it close!

MSU never sells their whole allotment of tickets to LSU games in BR. However, they are coming off of a very impressive year and will want to start off WAY better than the way they did this year. Therefore, I predict that they will bring 5000 fans. Thats alot more than we've seen from anybody else in a long while. That, and the 20K that usually show up for an opening game, Plus 2,000 that wouldn't normally show up, gives us 3,000 empty seats at the JAS. I hope it's a sell out, but we've got work to do to make it one. IT CAN HAPPEN!

I am with you. I just dont see 15K happening. Remember a lot of people will be taking vacation this weekend and I doubt Ruston is their most desirable destination. This is a great game for us, but State fans have seen better opponents.

Yeah, that's what we thought couple of years ago when we opened at high noon at JAS against Reno on Labor Day . . . and the game was live on ESPN.
Nearly 22K in attendance from what I remember.
