Not trying to stir pot but three things can increase our crowd

1. Winning
2. Penny2 under center
3. Named recognized opponents

Marshall football, home of: 1-AA (FCS) home openers on Labor Day weekend.

I wonder if ESPN + not available will increase our attendance slightly. I understand there will be no effect on people who travel long distances.

Not our fault Navy backed out. They were supposed to play us in Huntington this weekend.

Hope we never play them in anything again until they come here. Or we beat them even more mercilessly if we do play them.

Your pouties play Duquesne (FCS) who was 4-7 last year next weekend. Are you going to be riding up with Doc to see the game?

Hot, six o'clock start, and a no-name opponent, hope we actually get 20K+

Home opener FCS games tend to get pretty decent crowds even if it's really hot. It doesn't really matter, people will complain about it as they watch on ESPN+. It's the same thing every season.

Those with Spectrum will be unable to see ESPN+ since Disney and Spectrum are in a disagreement about pricing. Being a technological idiot I will not be able to go elsewhere to get the game.

How can spectrum block you from espn+?  There's so many ways to access it...smartphone, computer, smarttv, etc.

ESPN+ is a stand alone service. Spectrum and Disney issues aren't related.

Wonder if MU got a decent "buyout" amount, $$$$, from Navy for failure to appear at the JOAN.  Then again, the deal may have been negotiated and contract signed back in Kayo's AD days!!!
