    The attendance might not have been great, but the stadium was rocking for the whole game. The atmosphere was awesome.
    The campaign starts now. November 6, 2012.

    The crowd was fine. Cincinnati is undefeated and had a record crowd last night of like 37K.

    It looked like a great crowd around the 2nd quarter. Except for the northeast corner and the vistors side(Colorado had like 30 people there).

    I wouldn't underestimate the effect the late harvest had on the game. There are a lot of people beyond farmers that were working this weekend including me. The hawks may wear the ANF stickers on their helmets, but a huge number of ISU fans are actually directly involved with agriculture.

    Re: fannies in the stands...

    I thought the atmosphere was much better this week. The crowd seemed into it a lot more and not just in big situations. I think the crowd was showing some thanks for all the hard work this team has put in this season.

    Great job team, fans and the coaching staff!

    Re: fannies in the stands...

    I thought it was a great crowd. The upper corners were nearly full. If there was any shortage of fans, it was on the hillsides.

    In terms of attendance, we must learn to walk before we run. Think about it - How many attended in 2005 when a division title was on the line? 35,000. Even if the weather was crap there still would have been 40k there today.

    In prior years, we filled the stadium at the end of the year with $10 tickets. Now we're selling them in $99 mini packs. We certainly are making progress.
    Walking on water is easy. Just do it in December when it's frozen.

    Re: fannies in the stands...

    I was dissapointed in the crowd right before the game when the seniors were introduced. It was pathetic not being there for that.

    It took a while but the stadium did fill up pretty good a ways into the 1st quarter and they were in the game and loud until the end when most got into their seats.

    Re: fannies in the stands...

    Pretty decent crowd. If you put all the people on the grass in seats it was probably close to full

    Actually I think the crowd was better than 5 years ago when we played Missouri to win the north, but I don't want to bring up bad memories

    Frankly, I can't imagine wanting to sit on the hillsides when it's getting colder.

    I really thought there would be more people there with bowl game on the line and senior day, I had a extra ticket that no one wanted, couldnt even give it away. The crowd stayed cause it was a game till the end, it looked like we might blow it again....

    So you saw me. Took our 7 month old to his first game, had to leave halfway through the 4th quarter.

    I expected a smaller crowd than last week and was pleasantly surprised. The crowd that was there was great today.
    Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.

    Couldn't make this one. Caught it on Game Tracker while sitting on the veranda staring at the Atlantic down here in Florida. It was a GREAT day for football. 81 degrees, sunny.
