Spring Game Attendances: Any that surprise you?

[Omaha-Husker]

[SIZE=small]15. Florida - 21,000[/SIZE]

[SIZE=small]KSU this weekend[/SIZE]

[SIZE=small]16. Florida State - 17,250[/SIZE]

Due to construction at Granny Snyder stadium, their spring game has been moved to Sporting KC soccer stadium. Max capacity 20,000. 120 miles away from Manhattan.

That actually would of been really cool. I love that stadium, I wonder if they sold beer?

 

[The Dude]

Impressed by OSU's turnout.

"Impressed" isn't the word I would use. They only had 61,000 last year. Maybe, "predictable."

Yes, only 61,000.

This is my friend, QMany. He's not easy impressed.

It's not impressive at all.
Based soley on local population:

1 out of every 1,166 Ohioans attended the OSU spring game.

1 out of every 24 Nebraskans attended the Husker spring game.

That doesn't even include traveling attendees.

Programs in situations like OSU not selling out every year, let alone coming off a national title with a huge qb battle going on is frankly pathetic.

Largest crowd to ever watch a football practice isn't impressive, but you would go so far to call it a pathetic turnout?
I mean, you're saying words, but I don't think you know what they mean.

Also, nobody is saying Nebraska's turnout wasn't impressive. Of course it was. It always is. OSU's was just more so.

More than one thing can be impressive.

Its this Saturday - they are charging $100 for box seats and the cheapest is $10. They had to get special permission from the NCAA. Don't know if Sporting KC is charging or how much. Might lose money on the deal.

Duh, reading comprehension. I can't believe they are charging that much, but they must of had to pay to use the stadium I guess.

I know exactly what the words mean. It's an opinion. If you don't like it that is your perogative but doesn't give you the license to insinuate I'm an idiot.

Besides I didn't say their crowd this year was pathetic. I said it wasn't that impressive. Which again in my opinion with all the factors involved - it is not.

What I called pathetic is the fact that OSU and other 'big name' population advantaged programs like them should do those type of numbers almost every year but do not.

Your math above implies that Ohio has over 100 million people. Does that give license to insinuate anything about your logic?
Look, nobody sells out all their spring games. Nobody. OSU's feat was damn impressive. Even if it didn't impress you, it was still unprecedented.

Now how many of those people were actually at the game?

 

[Landlord]

Based soley on local population:

1 out of every 1,166 Ohioans attended the OSU spring game.

1 out of every 24 Nebraskans attended the Husker spring game.

1,166 * 90,000 = 104,940,000

Population of the state of Ohio = 11,590,000

For a difference of 93,350,000

....

Probably closer to 116.6. Math is hard

 

[jaws]

I am one of those 104 million Ohioans that didn't attend the spring game. So this means roughly 1/3 of the US population is in Ohio? Interesting.

This tread is entertaining.

Also, lets not assume that everyone in Ohio is an tOSU fan. There are 8 BCS level schools in the state.

And 8 professional sports teams.
