As bad as we might feel about our attendance, take solace that the "Battle of the Bay State" will likely be played in front of 35K empty seats in Foxboro.

Are they seriously playing that game at Foxboro?

some interesting games. Tennessee-Va Tech in front of 150,000 should be awesome. Hopefully Pitt beats the hell out of sleazebag Franklin. Carolina vs Illinois could be interesting, don't know what to make of Illinois under Lovie yet. Oh yeah, and the Friday night game seems pretty good.

I don't know much about Illinois' roster, but Lovie Smith can coach.

Where else would you play such an epic rivalry game?!

Although playing it at Foxboro High School might be more appropriate.

66,829 (Gillette capacity) - 35k = 31,829. We drew 31,336 for Colgate.

They are playing in Foxboro because its a UMass home game and they use Foxboro for their bigger games to pump their attendance to keep up above the D-1 mandatory limit. As I believe their Amherst homefield is very tiny. They will get mid 40l for this game as BC fans will actually have a chance to attend a game after they lost that home game in Ireland.
