Denver Post article says "

How big is “The Deion Sanders Effect” in Boulder?

The CU Buffs, coming off a humbling 1-11 mark last fall, have sold out Folsom Field for fans to watch … practice.".  but the stadium only holds just over 50k so Nebraska is already ahead and not sold out.  

I think CU is selling 40K and that is it.

But that is still amazing, they normally don't get anyone.

I had read they put up 50k tickets but that wasn't full capacity but I could absolutely be wrong on that

looks like at one point their capacity was 53,613 but they removed some seating so now its 50,183.  So I guess if they say they only sold 50K its not full capacity.  don't know why they wouldn't sell the other 183 seats.   :dunno

Either way, it is a big deal for them.  Clearly the hire, so far, has worked for CU.

Much the same way that the hire, so far, has worked for NU.

Wonder how many will actually attend Colorado's spring game. Love to see some crowd shots of that one...

I think that 75K is all dependent on the weather.

No rain, temps in the mid 60's or higher...and we hit 75K for the spring game.

Weather maybe not looking as great...mid 50's with possible rain.

Weather maybe not looking as great...mid 50's with possible rain.

The Solich curse continues?

Weather maybe not looking as great...mid 50's with possible rain.

This is optimistic as the time draws closer it appears.
