Sold vs. attending is always hard to estimate, but I still think you’re optimistic on some of these.(Sold, not actual- assuming 7-9 wins)
PSU - 23,000
TT - 29,500 (unfortunately not a sellout).
Uw - 61000 (70% uw fans)
SJSU - 24,600 (parents weekend but a Friday night).
Hawaii - 25,500
Utah State - 25,000
Wyoming - 19,000
PSU is Labor Day weekend. It won’t break 20K.
Texas tech might not be too much overestimated, but there are still a lot of seats left. It’s looking more like 26-27K right now.
You’re wildly overestimating apple cup. There’s a lot of availability still. Unless they come up with some wildly successful promotions and discounts pretty soon, and/or both teams look better than expected in their first couple games, it’s going to struggle to make 50K. Actually at the moment it looks more like 40K.
SJSU might be close, but only because of parents weekend. Doing that on a Friday night is dumb, it’s going to drive attendance down.
Games after that will be affected quite a bit by performance. I don’t really see any reason to think Hawaii will be that well attended. Maybe it gets a bump from being the last time the weather might be decent.
Utah state won’t draw that well, 25K is high end.
Wyoming is Saturday afternoon after thanksgiving. Students aren’t coming back for that, so the parents aren’t coming. Unless we’re at 8+ wins going into that one, we’re looking at 15K tops.
