The attendance was listed at 9392.
Did that break the record. I know the previous record was 9300+ but I don't remember what it was exactly.
Yes, it broke The Louisville mark it was 9,354
Which is suspicious to me because when we set the Louisville record, the band was sitting on the floor level and their normal spot was filled with fans. I also didn't see that many people without seats.
looking at the pictures, it looked to me like they let too many students in. pictures show students standing down on the floor, and i think thats just crazy...makes it too hard to maintain order...im sure i'll get blasted for saying that, but those are my thoughts
At the end of the game, some of the students moved down, getting ready to storm the court. They were not there the whole game.
But there were a number of students without seats when the game started.
I don't know how the attendance count is managed but in my opinion there is no way there were more people in there last night than at that Louisville game.
No way that was the largest. I've been there when the tops of every aisle were filled with fans who had nowhere to sit.
We must have brought in someone from Tuscaloosa to do the count.
What do yall think the crowd will be like for houston? Do you think people will be so heartbroken that they give up on us or be impressed by how we play and want to see more?
I'm guessign about 5500-6000.

I hope that since it was against the number 1 team in nation and we had them until the last 10 seconds that the attendance will still be pretty good. Not expecting 7 or 8k, but I'm hoping close or above 6k.

Things will be back to normal with our peaceful group of 3500. students will claim that they have something more important to do like - study.
I'm a student, and my fiancee and I will be there screaming our faces off as usual. I'm upset about the loss, but I am also pumped about the rest of the games that we have. I hope more students plan to come Wednesday- we will do our best to spread the word around campus these next few days!
I've got a couple kitchen faucets I can bring.
I will bring an extra sink from my job to throw at Topple Down Tom......
I hope you guys fill the house for Houston. We really need more fan support in CUSA! Each game is a fight to stay in possible contention for the NCAA tournament!
Good luck to the Blazer fans and players!
