What attendance would constitute a good showing on Saturday?

Not sure, and it doesn't really matter. How many LIU fans will be at the Swamp this weekend? Florida will draw a huge crowd for an unknown FCS opponent like Long Island who won't bring more than 100 friends and family.



Again, not if you want to be considered a Power Conference school. 😁 Last year, these schools had no problem drawing for an FCS opponent and CCSU wasn't a drag at other FBS schools:

• North Carolina vs. NC Central (45,491)
• West Virgina vs. Albany (50,073)
• Nebraska vs. Northern Iowa (86,546)
• 2021 - CCSU at Miami, Fla (44,019)
• 2017 - CCSU at Syracuse (30,273)

unrelated but LIU playing Florida was never in my wildest dreams. I grew up close to CW Post back when they were playing NE10 ball (bentley, stonehill, assumption, American International, Pace, New Haven, SCSU, Merrimack...)

can't believe they're going to the friggin SWAMP wow.... godspeed i hope it doesn't get too ugly.

I am actually on vacation in Madison this week. Heading home night Friday night to prep for the tailgate & game Saturday. Then back to Madison for a family reunion on Sunday & Monday...

surely deviled eggs are on the brunch menu!

I don’t consider us a Power Conference School. We are an independent G6.

To begin with UConn is not in a conference, so by definition UConn is not a "Power Conference School". And the record will have to improve against P4 opponents for UConn to claim to be at that level. But the time may come ....

It is Labor Day Weekend, with many scheduling "end of Summer" festivities (last time going to the beach, boating, family reunion picnics).
On a better note, my daughter & son-in-law just ordered tickets for their family, so I get 3 of my grands at the tailgate!

I cancelled my annual block island boat trip to attend this game. Some say it’s our Super Bowl.

You gave up getting hammered at Ballards/Mahagony Shoals for the Governor's Cup? I salute you.

Shoal’s and Champlins. I don’t go to Ballards, too many ferry-bound PC fans.
