Do y'all expect it to be pretty even or will this be closer to a home game for us? I mean, I know we're bringing the numbers, but I'm curious how much green I'm going to be seeing around Dallas.

If Duck fans are smart, they'll be wearing yellow not green.

So they will look almost like LSU's gold? Instead of a color that doesn't represent us...green?

I think you'll see 30-35k duck fans, 60k LSU fans and 5k random.

Same reason LSU fans don't wear purple. Doesn't show up on TV.

Besides, their yellow is fluorescent, neon yellow. It's not quite the same.

I see it about the same as the LSU vs. Aggies game -- but this time with LSU having the 55 - 60% share.

Ducks went to Tennnessee last season week 2 -- they represented themselves pretty well -- and that is all the way across the country pretty much.

I think it's going to be more Ducks than some LSU fans think.... which worries me.... too many LSU fans don't seem to think this is a tough game that LSU is going to have to play very well to win.

Our history in openining games is not so great when it comes to how we play.... we've won, but have not been playing top opponents and this time, I think Oregon repreents a much tougher contest for LSU.

Good thing the fans won't have to play in this one.

You guys only sold 15,000 tickets.

Even if some UO fans bought tickets from brokers, I doubt there will be more than 20,000 Duck fans in the building.

There weren't 35K Duck fans in Tempe for the BCSCG last year. Why would more than that make the longer trip down to Dallas?
