What do y'all think.?

I say we still have 90+ K if the game is within 7

Outside of that... Anything 10 or more up... I see a mass exodus once again. I don't think a lot our fan base will stick around for the 4th quarter if we are up more than a score. Especially since much of our fan base still doesn't consider Miss St a big game.

I hope I am wrong and we have 100K exiting the stadium after the final gun!

Tigers 33
Miss St 17

Geaux Tigers!!!

Mr and mrs OT baller need to leave their luxury seats at half to not sit in traffic with the plebs.

In my experiences the score doesn't seem to matter much. A few never return after halftime and the exodus typically starts midway through the third quater.

They're not yelling to the point of passing out on 3rd downs either. Dead weight.

Although I think it's low class, I am impressed that most Alabama fans don't leave early so they can all wave their pom poms and do the "We just beat the hell out of you" chant. If the game is under two scores in the 4th, then people would be idiots to leave because that is NOT over when you're playing a respectable team.

The crowd would probably stay longer if the parking and traffic situation improved.

Traffic is not the reason people leave early.
By the third quarter the booze they sneaked in is running out and they need to get some more into their system.

Well you don't seem very informed. The place is usually packed at the end for big and close games

Well, I'll never forget the AR game several years ago the was tied, with national title hopes on the line and the stadium was prob half full in the 4th quarter. There have been many others as well. Personally, I don't care if people leave, that's there prerogative, was just stating my opinion.

Just look at the game 2 years ago. LSU was only up by 3 at the half, and only 13 at the start of the 4th. Yet the stadium cleared out like it was a 28 point lead on Sam Houston State. MSU moved the ball and twice had 1st and goal with a chance to cut the lead to 6. Yet only about 1/2 the stadium actually saw it.

I completely understand leaving non-competitive games against crap teams, there's no point in watching a pointless exercise. What baffles me are the people that leave early in competitive games, especially against conference schools.

People left the Wisconsin game in Houston at half. Times have changed.

They care more about tailgating and traffic than watching a game, something I've never understood. Where is the logic behind paying thousands for season tickets only to leave at halftime, or paying hundreds for tickets on the open market just to leave before the final. I really don't get it, unless these are all free and corporate tickets, not real fans.

I call BS. Remember, we're talking about the "nobody's-going-to-tell-me-when-I-can-leave-its-my-money" crowd!

It's not going to be a blowout, but alot of fans will still leave before the 4thQ anyways.
