Fans there

But since it's move to Thursday maybe 1-2k less

5 to 7k, OK, if you say so. But answer me this when was the last time Troy took 3 to 5k fans to a SBC game? I see this all the time (not just Troy but fans in general) were fans throw out outrageous numbers like that. But from my experience you will hardly ever see 1000 visiting SBC fans at a game when it's a 5 hour drive. Not even on a Saturday...much less a weekday.

Here's another question...where were you planning on getting those 5 to 7k tickets? If a visiting team can get 7k tickets GaSo will be in deep trouble....

That would mean they could only sell 11 to 12k to their on fans.

South... Ga state

Yes we don't travel well to wku, stAte because of the distance... But with tons of Troy alumni in south Ga and Atlanta and mobile that's what it will be.

Just because we don't bring 5-7k to wku doesn't mean that's true for everyone

So the answer is once and that was vs a instate school that's less than a 3 hour drive.


I'm not buying it because Troy had a heated rivalry with the muts and it's only a 4 hour drive and you could get unlimited tickets. Like I said if Troy can get 5,000 tickets for this game GaSo is in trouble.

Twice... Can you count?

We had atleast 5-7k at GSU which is a 3 hour drive...... Why wouldn't we expect to see those numbers?

And Mtsu was a little more than a 4 hour drive. It was a 4.5 hour drive from my house on the south side of Atlanta.

So lets see if I have this right ...

Troy took at least 5000 @GSU and that's 5000 out of the 17732 listed in attendance for this game.

GSU also list attendance of 15425 vs Jacksonville St a couple weeks earlier
GUS also list attendance of 15212 vs WKU a couple weeks later

So unless GSU had around 3000 less of their fans to show up for the Troy game something isn't adding up.

Of course we all know GSU never actually had that many fans at the actual game but they had a consistently listed attendance in the 15k range all year.

So I will ask again.....

who's number 2? and of course I can read but just because someone wrote it doesn't mean others have to take it as fact.
