Ole Miss at Memphis, first game every at then Memphis Memorial Stadium, capacity sellout crowd -50,162. Top attendance occurred after Liberty Bowl was expanded in the 90s & was later deceased to meet ADA:

*not including 2015
The largest crowd Memphis has ever played in
front of was 107,261 when the Tigers fell to Tennessee
in Knoxville during the 1999 season. Memphis helped UTK set an attendance record, just like Memphis helped UH last season (tell me how much you appreciate the Memphis help).
And Memphis has avg'd better than UH's 2015 average in 12 seasons since '65 with a mostly mediocre schedule & record. Memphis supports even an average team, UH has a history of not even supporting winning teams.
And BTW, this thread isn't about Memphis, as much as you want to deflect from UH's poor attendance. It's about UH fans' delusional idea they are THE candidate for the P5........look no further than your attendance to bust your bubble.
All you proved is that your opponents attendance was awesome lol. Were did you show proof of memphis fans showing up in great numbers?
Im not going to bother reading the rest of your post until you admit you were wrong about the navy game. Quite deflecting and be a man and admit your wrong. Also you realize Knoxville is is University of Tennessee's stadium right? Are you really counting their attendance as memphis attendance? Lmao wow i have never seen some one so desperate to skew facts this is just sad.
Apparently reading comprehension is a problem for you. So I'll make it simple for you (or it should be). The list is Memphis home attendance. The note at the bottom is just the game, yes at Knoxville just like it says, in which Memphis played with the highest attendance in its history. Like Memphis helped UH achieve its highest attended game in the history of TD, Memphis also helped UTK achieve it's then highest attendance record. So Memphis fans have shown support at home & they travel well. UH, not so much. BTW, has UH played any games where 100K attended? No didn't think so.........
Yes we have actually when we played in death valley against LSU but lets ignore that fact lol. Lets also ignore that there was less than 1,000 memphis fans at the memphis game because you know facts. Let also ignore that the game was between two ranked teams one undefeated and one with only one loss. Lets also ignore that the game deciding who would get an aac championship birth possibly as a factor.
Lets also ignore that you only listed games against P5 teams who always travel well to skew attendance.
Finally lets also ignore that you stated
"the memphis game was UH's only sellout game in 2015 FACT!" Which is blatantly wrong. See navy game which i will mention also had a higher tv viewer ship than any other aac game.
So as long as we ignore all that your right i'll admit it lmao!!
I finally understand you have little man syndrome and is upset that memphis may not get into the big 12 its ok though you'll get over it lol. Also i don't care if uh doesn't get in either.
(drops mic)
P.S. Your grammar was horrible so I had a problem understanding what you meant, nothing to do with reading comprehension.
Like most of your comments they don't square with the facts. Last time UH played LSU, Tiger Stadium only held 91K or do you have another standing room story? So I guess the answer is no UH has never played before a crowd of 100K. Nice try though.
Got a link for that 1000 Memphis fans nonsense - it doesn't square with the sales at the Memphis ticket office?
Again you ignored the statement about Memphis attendance - "Top Crowds" - dah. They are against who they are against but, please note, didn't include Ole Miss last season, Navy last season, Missouri St last season (yes Missouri St), & Cincy - with all of those games exceeding the UH avg home attendance last season.
Your stadium holds 40K you say but the Memphis game attendance was 42,159? Most stadium actually have a capacity & that's what it is, maybe it's different at UH where attendance is a tough hurdle. But for sure the Memphis game is UH's largest crowd in TDECU.
And the stats are the stats, not my grammar, directly verbatim from the media guides of the AAC & UM. I know, you're trying to deflect again - try to stay focused. And work on that UH attendance for 2016. It will be interesting to see how Uh draws after the OU loss - even though I'm pulling for UH. After all, Houston is the 5th largest metro area in the US, surely UH can find 40K fans to come to your games.
Ahh the tears of some one who can't admit he is wrong, they are delicious. Have you wondered why no memphis fans have come to your support yet, while plenty users have supported me? You still haven't admitted you were wrong about the the number of sellouts guess you never heard of standing room. Alot of stadiums don't do standing room mostly the P5. But most non P5 have at least standing room in case of a sellout. Which is what UH had.
Also what exactly are we focusing on? You have desperately deflected so many times to avoid admitting you were wrong i loss track.
My bad memphis' ticket allotment was 2,000 they sold 1,500. So your still wrong about it being alot of memphis fans at they game.
It was hilarious by the way to see all those Memphis fans abandoned the team as soon as they were on a losing streak. That stadium was quite empty for the SMU game.
Lastly thank-you for having making the most UH fans (40,000) show up to see memphis' most humiliating loss in school history lol!
Also does this make sense
"Ole Miss at Memphis, first game every at then Memphis Memorial Stadium, "
first game every at then memphis? Lol thats called bad grammar looks like your wrong again.
At least you finally admit your skewing the facts which is a good start.
