Red shirts in the seats will be another story too.

Well they have like 25-26k season ticket holders so without an idea of how far over 30k not all that useful to know.

I'll wager heavily that a good amount of these tickets (I'm guessing 5k) are part of the three game Michigan package.

Other than the Maryland game, these were the two other good games with the Michigan 3-pack. I hope we're closer to 40K than 30K since "more than 30K" could mean 30,001 have been sold. It would be outstanding to be able to boast about an increase to attendance in this lousy season.

I guess I've known this: But Friday is an 8:30 kick. That's rough if it gets ugly.

Yeah, and I'm sure ESPiN would love nothing more than to pan around our empty stadium in the second half to make their witty comments. Late arrivals too if people hang out in the parking lot to watch/listen to the end of the basketball game.

This is a conspiracy that exists in people's heads.

Granted the game may get ugly but it would look great for us to see a full stadium of crazy fans supporting the team with signs and chants. We can still use this to out advantage

6.) There are roughly 1,800 tickets left for UConn’s next game at home against Louisville. The most expensive ticket (located in the "Executive Snoots" section) is going for $437. The cheapest seat comes in at a ripe $10. Here’s the kicker though—shipping for that ticket will cost you $16.95.

Not that I disagree, but....
On the ESPN mobile app, on the CFB scoreboard, when you click to get a league, the AAC is no longer the first league shown. It is now ACC followed by "American". So, if you are tin foil hat wearing believer, this is further proof of the conspiracy.

Let's just say this, if there isn't an ESPiN conspiracy going on, there is a TREMENDOUS amount of quotes, comments, actions, inactions, and content that is making it very hard to prove otherwise. It may all be in our heads, sure, but I also think there are a fair amount of Fruit grads employed there that are mighty happy to kick UCONN while it's down.

Yes because most football fans pick their favorite league based on alphabetical order.

Especially when the AAC office has all but begged people to call it the American.

Maybe don't go 10-21 and be a 4 TD dog at home... then fewer people kick you.

On this note (I may post this in the ticket exchange in a few days) I have four tickets for Friday's game (from one of the Michigan three game deals) that are free to a good home. All I ask is a promise to actually use them. Send me a PM and we can work out delivery, likely in the blue lot before the game.

We finally have common ground , we both agree u need medicine. Seriously just thinking conference realignment. Big crowd lots of signs and cheering. Big statement on tv. Dont give the announcers anything negative to say about the fan support. That n tv markets are the biggest driving force. Showing solid fan support and a strong hire can say alot to a new conference.

For the love of God I'll spell it out for you..

I'd expect someone who is a UConn fan to realize by now they don't allow signs in Rentschler Field. It's only been a decade of no signs.

Nobody is making any big statement. It's going to be cold, it's going to be late and it's going to be a blowout. There are going to be like 15k people there at 10:30 when the second half kicks off.
