I'll say 105,000 for Saturday, November 8th vs Alabama.

I think the home opener's attendance vs Sam Houston State will rival that attendance though. Just because it will be the first time many fans will get to see the newly-expanded Tiger Stadium.

I wouldn't be surprised to see as much as 106,000 for one of the games.

Bama is a good guess, but if we lose one before it it won't be.

Plus the stadium will have a good feel for the home opener, but let's face it, maybe 20k will be there at the start of the 2nd half. They will sell out but I'm going with 81k actual at home opener. And it will be less than that until we play Ole miss.

Now LSU isn't losing money, the tickets will be bought, but people won't show up.

And honestly, I don't care. I'll go to the shite games and be able to lounge around not having fat arse next to me taking up two seats or people bitching at me to sit down.


Only way this changes is if LF or one of the qbs goes off in houston.

There will be about 75K actual attendance for that game.

Bama maybe because they'll bring 20000 fans. The expansion was a terrible idea.

Might top 100k for one of two games. Most will be around 90-95

As a season ticket holder since 1961, it saddens me to say that, in my opinion, LSU will have the smallest actual attendance numbers going back to Curley's days. If we cann't draw more than the 72K against the gators last yr, what can we expect for the 4 rent a wins & outside of bama, the SEC home games? O. Miss & Mo State didn't even sell out their allotments.

Reading it wrong...I wanted a guess for the attendance, not the game...will edit OP to make that clearer.

where did you get this number? there were far more than that there. yes people did go to the concourses because they were hot, but there were at least 85k people actually in the stadium for that game
