Miami Beach Bowl Attendance

[HuffyCane]

Hey boo birds,

All the smack you talked about the bowl attendance could be unfounded.

The Alumni package is sold out, so is the night before party and the pre-game party. Judging by the pictures on Facebook, the crowd is going to far exceed your expectations.

We shall see.

I almost booked a plane ticket last week, if I had just one person to commit to going with me I'd be there right now.

Crowd looks sparse. Not a cheap travel destination. Hard to get locals out to an afternoon (Monday) game with zero area connection.

Tulsa represented as well or better than CMU

 

[TUMU]

Maybe 4,000.

Looked bad on TV....and they kept showing the empty stands for some reason. Hopefully TV ratings were ok for that beat down.

Team play was impressive; both offense and defense. They should not have disqualified our player for targeting.

 

[HuffyCane]

I'd say 5,000 TU fans were there, maybe more. About the same for CMU.

More people here than Mobile Year Two by far.

I wasn't counting the two bands. Both bands probably 600. Even with the bands, I don't think there were over 4,500 in attendance.

So about the same as the attendance at many Marlins games.

It was fine. The least of our problems. Monday afternoon at 1:30PM? What could they have realistically expected?

Yep, yep, and yep.

TU deserved to play in front of 80,000, the way they played. This offense could shred a hell of a lot better teams than Central Michigan. TU got gyped, robbed and ignored by the bowl selection committes...better than Houston and Navy by far right now (since Navy lost their QB they are meager at best). Its major crap that prime time couldn't see this team in action. If I was a TU quarterback next year , I would dedicate myself to the weight room for arm strength and take yoga, pilates and Tai Chi because if their defense can improve next year...LOOK OUT ! How great it would have been to play Okla. State right now in a bowl game. Dane and Company would tear that defense up.

When we beat them next year, I'm sure they'll blame it on the refs and claim victory.
