Boneyard attendance increase challenge

[ucjoet]

Obviously winning Saturday would be huge towards getting a bowl bid. Also winning would help energize our fan base and give us further hope that Coach Diaco has the program trending with a upward projection. Game definitely not going to be easy ( USF beat SU pretty good yesterday), but it is a very winnable game.

Staff and players should be ready for this game, and I hope the fans are up for it. Going to be Northeast football weather ( per long range forecast) 50's and breezy. This should be to our advantage vs a Florida team.

My challenge is for everyone hear to call up as many friends , acquaintances , past Uconn football season ticket holders ,etc. and ask them to go to game. We have a group of 8 in this years season ticket group, but we are bringing 6 more ( definite) and 8 more who will let us know.

A big rowdy crowd can make the difference in this game. And if these people come back this week and have a good time, they may decide to go to more games in future or even buy season tickets.

Have not looked forward to home game this much in a very long time. Go Huskies

With homecoming and a blow out win yesterday (casual fans have no idea that UCF is a bad team) I can see us being over 30K with it trending near 35K with game day sales.

Again, the casual fan sees 40-13 and thinks "I gotta see me some of that".

Maybe Diaco gets a Gatorade bucket for beating 2 FL teams in a row.

Tapped out on the grab a new fan for the game.

Would be great to get a big raucous crowd for Homecoming. This is a must win to stay on bowl schedule. I can't wait for Saturday!

We've come close to the 35-40 points we were capable of in the last few games. A few mistakes got in the way. We have now jump started our mojo. We will score big vs USF and win on Saturday. And in case you haven't noticed, our DB's have become very proactive. Look for Adams and the rest to thwart the Bulls air attack.
