Predicted 44k, 900 off.

LSU brought about 8,000 fans. So roughly 35,000 Syracuse people showed up. Par for the course. What I expected.

You're in a joyous mood today.

Just pointing out a fact. SMH

OK, fair enough. I don't need to be a troll.

Seemed like there was more. I would have guessed 46k.

That's the most visiting fans i've seen since PSU 2008.

Our fans did a great job. My lungs hurt.

Agree the most since the PSU game and I thought there were more as well. Trying to move around the dome was impossible. Parking lots that are usually empty were filled up by 10:45am. Loved having a packed house. Will probably see it again for the Clemson game. Would be nice to see some locals show up for Pitt and BC

When they renovate the Dome we should cut capacity down to 44K. Place gets plenty loud with that many people, creates more demand for tickets, and seems to be the right size for our fan base.

Seemed like 45k to me. And the crowd was awesome.

The crowd looked and sounded great on TV.

Was totally going to just post the same thing. 44K is the number.

And I don't mean my comment to be negative. I've said for years that the Dome is a bit too big for our fanbase. We *can* draw 45K+ occasionally, but under that would be best for business IMHO.

You guys are too pessimistic. 35,000 locals for a team that was 3 and 0 for the first time in 16 years and playing as a 23 point underdog, is really quite exceptional. Syracuse is not a major city. If the team wins they can easily get 50 as a 7-2 team against Clemson.

 

[OrangeCrush22]

Crowd was fantastic. It might be the most fun I've ever had at the Dome when we lost. My hands hurt from clapping and my voice is cracking.

 

[JrodCuse]

Maybe finally we can change that big picture that recruits stand in front of that still says "big east" on the field.

If they win the next two there will be over 45K for Pitt.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Being at the game it didn't look like there were 6,000 empty seats. Great crowd. Sat in front of 7 LSU fans and they were great and very complimentary of our team. They kept saying who are these guys. Great fans who love football. Let's get healthy in the next couple of weeks and this team can beat several teams left on this schedule.

If? IF?! C'mon, Man!

We are on the train, and the Orange Express will roll into that Pitt game like a tsunami. Puck Fitt. Bring back Dungey and bring on all comers.

That would be Impressive considering pitt won't bring that many

 

[upperdeck]

there were a ton of LSU fans sitting in seats that SU fans resold. but Pitt/BC will bring a few hundred like they always do.

 

[K Otto XLIV]

I guessed 42k. Who cares though as the crowd was great.

Three weeks and two more opportunities to build up the buzz. 5 and 1 with a chance to lock up bowl eligibility and 3 and 0 in conference will bring another would bring at least another 7500 out.
