Tailgating, SU Football, it's irreplacable to me. Being the home opener, Villanova has a chance to see mid-30's, maybe. If you hit 40K, actual 40K and not announced, that's huge for that type of opponent. I know this has been discussed until no end, but what brings in the casual fan? In my experience it's been two things. 1) Marquee opponent 2) Winning team You can beat your chest and advertise all you want. You can have the most exciting offense in the world. At the end of the day, if it's not a top-25 opponent or we dont have a good record, attendance will hover where it has been within reason. Earn a 5-0 or 4-1 record and you'll have to sit on your sticker for Florida State, possibly Louisville if we're 3-1, moreso if we're 4-0. [/QUOTE]
