I'd bet there were less than 6,000 people actually there.alabama24 wrote: ↑December 2nd, 2019, 12:30 pm 18,674 for the final game was good, considering that it was over Thanksgiving break.Couldn't have been more than 7-8 thousand bodies in stadium.

Since neither one of us are in a conference this would work well and from the feedback I got when we played them their fans and AD would love to play us every year.Hmmm, this concept sounds familiar.

The stadium will already be full of tech fans as it is.If the next two years are successful, I would wager the students cap out and students have to buy tickets weeks in advance to get in. They might open that up in preseason for the tickets.

The question is will we have 7000 students or will they be overtaken by Tech fans.I think they'll be there. But obviously, it'll depend on how well we'll be doing and if Freeze and his recruits are still here.
