Love it - Go Coogs!!

Looks good, but heard the report say, yes there are still plenty of seats available. Any word on ticket sells so far?

Beautiful facility!

You should be 3-1 when UCF visits which might be a sell out. And by being a conference favorite, 90% capacity overall should be a reasonable goal.

We are on track to sell between 15K and 20K season tickets, which would be 35+ year highs for us.

It looks great. I wish ucf went the concrete route.

Yesterday was a HUGE day for ticket sales.

Up to 10,000 right now, projections are trending towards 15,000

I believe it will land closer to 20k. Any numbers coming out now do not include any of the GA that have or will be sold.

These numbers only reflect reserved seats.

Good to know. I've seen this reported before and I have a question if you know. Is this the number counting the Family plans? I've know ALOT of people that brought the family plans and I'm not sure if that is being counted in the prim numbers.

Alright.... time for some sod to be laid

No sod. FieldTurf (or some equivalent).

I'm thinking about season Tix for the first time... Either way, I'll be there. Go Coogs!

Really? So is it down to ECU and UCF for OCS as only AAC teams with natural grass?

Yeah, I never quite understood that decision either.

I think it is because there will be so many different people using the facility, they didn't want to hassle with the upkeep.

Looks great, Coogs!

Yup. I would have taken a smaller stadium for concrete. It is what it is though.
