I expect a big walk up crowd with the great weather. I think we get 40k!

Let’s take the opening kickoff and drive the ball down the field and never look back!

Also a big factor. Seems like the first time in several years the home opener has great weather in the forecast.

So is 30K+ people in seats actually realistic? Seems like distributed is over that amount but of course there will be no shows.
 
Just going on memory here but I remember the first Diaco game as the game the stadium was named Pratt and Whitney Stadium and we had a fighter plane flyover which was really great. There were a large amount of P@W employees for that game against BYU. It boosted attendance.

This is what I wanted to see.

NO EXCUSES

This isn’t the pathetic UConn Football your casual buddies are expecting.

We have a team that can complete at a level of consistency we’ve been dreaming about for over a decade.

Home field advantage is huge, it helps drive winning records.

6 games per year the fans need to put their all into this team, and make coming to our house an intimidating experience that each opponent will remember.

If you want a prayer of beating P5 teams with any consistency, show up, and get loud. The team can’t do it alone.

I don’t care if the tickets were bought, stolen, or given away. I’m proud of the fanbase for what looks like real support for this team. And you know the boys will show their appreciation by leaving it all on the field.

1 more day until the revolution kicks back off, can’t wait.

The only thing I have problem with is the giving away tickets part. At least offering them at heavy discount would be preferable.

But if you’re going to do that you might as well go whole hog. Count tickets distributed and get something out of it.

A certain school that got into the ACC ahead of us used to give away tickets at all the fad stations in Kentucky. Sometimes you have to slum it up.

STHs have a right to be a little peeved but really they should just go enjoy the game.

FREE gas a ring to it that STEEPLY DISCOUNTED just can't match. Do FREE.

I have attended some Penn State games and recall attending a game vs Northern Illinois that drew 100,000.....yes, Northern Illinois. If Penn State can get 100k for Northern Illinois, we can get 40k for NC State.

Comparing UConn to Penn State is a folly.
 
The thing that is hard to judge is the 2 free tickets given to basketball season ticket holders. I know I claimed mine with the intention of giving them to a friend who sometimes tags along to football games with my group. He had already purchased tickets. I did find someone else to give them to. But I wonder, how many people have claimed their freebies and won't use them?

Why? Both are land grant institutions. UConn football can definitely get to Penn State’s level with a P5 invite.

UConn where it is between NYC and Boston, get the money, fan support, and head coaching can definitely be a strong football program, idk if we get to Penn St caliber, they're not a blue blood but definitely are on that Tennessee, Miami, Georgia, FSU 2nd tier
 
Certainly wish they would have busses for all the student tickets they gave out. Seems like a logical thing with an off campus stadium that did not happen. Should have a bus ticket with every student ticket they give.

The school let the program crater. I appreciate that coach understands that and is diplomatic about it. The fan base needs to be partially rebuilt. A lot of the glory days fan base has either died or retired to the south. We’ve gotta win and and replace them with young blood.

I have a lot of respect for how well Mora communicates and shows sensitivity to a fan base that has been tortured by bad hires and conference realignment. He’s just a solid, stable and thoughtful guy. He isn’t going to blame us for not being there until he earns it.

Jim Mora is a classy guy but I’m not so I will say what he wants to say but can’t. I am willing to take the heat for these comments im about to say.

If you have the opportunity to go to this game especially if it’s free and don’t then you stink, you are a complete and utter joke. Your not a UConn fan.
