Yeah, BryceC referenced this site on their site the other day as well. And happened to also call us all crazy for thinking we have a shot against KU on Saturday.
haha, i love the thread. "When Will The ISU Game Sell Out?"
If we were where they are. It would have been sold out for weeks! And Pollard would probably try go get 60,000 in there!
My dad heard somewhere that ISU has had a higher average attendance than Kansas this year. Of course it helps that we had UNI, Iowa, Texas, and Oklahoma all here--thus lots of visiting fans. But as has been said here before, I don't think there are many 3-8 programs that have as much positive buzz as we do! :yes:Quote:

As for Iowa, well, we all know the ticket policy that helped to keep them out. No, this year was all about ISU fans stepping up and filling the stadium, which they did nicely. I'll bet we had the largest % attendance vs. capacity of any 3 win (maybe 4) team in the country.Quote:

*ahem* props to whomever. Thank you.
your right, they're undefeated. Where are there fans? I wonder how many of that 46,000 fans will be Cyclone fans this Saturday! GO STATEQuote:

I'd still say that's pretty weak for an undefeated team, though.
edit: after looking it over, it's really fairly decent. They've only had 2 conference home games, one against Nebraska and one against Baylor, up to this point. Their only other home games were the first 4 of the year against Florida Int'l, Toledo, SE LA, and Central Michigan. Not exactly compelling matchups.
We've had the benefit of playing a huge in-state rival (Iowa), another in-state rival (UNI), Texas, Oklahoma, K-state and Colorado all at home.
