We shall see! If there's some type of ticket promotion, then we'll see a big number. If not, 38k is what I'm going with.

Dude you predicted 35K for Missouri State.

No I didnt. My final prediction for Missouri State was 38k, and there was only 3k more than that bc of a late push on the Kroger tickets. I'm just saying. Weeknight. No ticket promo or ticket give aways like what brought huge crowds on weeknights in past years. Heck, geo may be even closer with the 35k prediction. It's a shame though. The main ESPN Thursday crew. Cameras everywhere. Production team here 2 days prior filming and putting together features on the program, facilities, etc. And I think the majority of folks would agree this crowd may be a letdown.

I think there was around 45k at least for the Missouri State game.

Access Bowl eliminator. Two damn good G5 teams knocking on the door. A 12-1 Bowling Green has a shot at New Years. We need to knock them out.

I think we will. By double digits.

Why do you think so Andy? I'm nervous about this one.

Our passing game is as good as theirs.
Our running game is much better.
Our defense even with some of the lapses is much better than theirs (UTK ran for 400 yards).
Our special teams are much better.

As long as we don't have the turnovers like last week we win.

This.

If we avoid the sluggish start like we had last week we should win pretty easily. I think we'll be able to keep up the scoring pace with them. I believe our defense will be able to get some stops. And we should start, on average, at the 35 or more.

I also believe Kansas' offense is somewhat decent, its their defense that sucks. If thats the case, then our defense is probably much better than its given credit for.

We can ill afford defensive penalties today.

And given BG's issue with the kicking game, maybe we have a shot at running a kickoff back today.

No I didnt. My final prediction for Missouri State was 38k, and there was only 3k more than that bc of a late push on the Kroger tickets. I'm just saying. Weeknight.

Yes, we get it, you'll never admit you're wrong.

3-0. Good stuff.

But I'm never wrong. So...

I thought I was wrong once, but I was misconfused.
