Speaking of attendance, not trying to hijack the thread but watching the Duke\Ohio State hoops game. 20,000 people there for an early season game on a Tuesday night... seems crazy to me.


Great time to be a BOBCAT!

That's a big time game with the #1 team coming to town on national TV. That might be Ohio State's highest profile game of the season by the time it's all said and done. Columbus metro area has 2 million plus and OSU has 45k students. We can't hardly comprehend that scale here in MT but I bet they could've filled up a 30,000 seat arena!

Agreed. I said in a thread last week that the 2019 Cat/Griz game is the loudest I've ever heard in Bozeman, followed by that AP game. Imagine if it had been closer to capacity.

I thought UM only had 1 rival…..and every team they play considers them a rival. Because they are that good.

With these games the WHO is there is way more important than how MANY are there. Not meant to disrespect, but for many season ticket holders the game is just a Saturday event to meet up with friends.

Playoff games bring the crowds that want to be there, want to stand and yell, and don’t care about weather or anything else. We’ll get more than 10k but even that wouldn’t bother me. Place should be rocking.

Looking at Tickets West, I don't think there are more than 3,000 seats left. Forecast is around 50 and breezy.

I bet another 1,000 get sold and attendance is 15,977.

Get that Sonny Holland end zone filled up. That’s where the noise causes problems.

Is MSU still on the Covid semester plan where school is out before Thanksgiving? I hope not. This game needs all the noise and cheers it can get. It’s not a walk in the park.

Nope. Finals are the week after next

Well we certainly cannot blame the weather for our attendance this Saturday. This mild weather we are having is crazy.

I know that all of the "true blue Cat" fans will be at the playoff game, but I do have a question. There are always the "Fair weather" type
of fans and I wonder, what if the score in the Cat-Griz game was reversed? What if we had gone into Missoula and SMOKED the Griz 29-10?
What difference do you think this would have made regarding the turnout this Saturday?? Maybe I'm wrong but I think a fairly significant number of fans on both sides kinda lose interest when they get crushed by their rival. For example, in 2019 after WE crushed the griz I see where UM had a little over 16k attendance for their
playoff game with SE Louisiana.

I'm going to predict 13,000 for our game with UT-Martin.

After last weekends turnouts, I would be happy seeing 10K.
that would be pretty disappointing.I heard Griz have already sold 20,000 and expect more.
Griz troll. Too dUMb to understand the difference between playing a hated conference rival and playing a team from the OVC.
