Will the leave-early culture improve this year, stay same, or get worse?

I'm hoping for a general movement towards keeping the stadium filled until later in the games.

it's going to get worse each year IMO

I think people will be more inclined to stay with better cell service and more pretty pictures to look at.

It'll get worse.
Same goes for lots of schools. Only a tight game will keep people in the stadium for the entire game.
At UGA, the default kickoff time is noon if the game isn't on ESPN or CBS.
Up 34-7 on Troy at halftime in 95 degree heat and humidity = 3/4 empty stadium by the 4th quarter.

I have never left a game early.
I don't leave movies early, so why would I leave a game early?

Probably going to be worse, especially for some of those early season crap games. Lots more people in stadium so folks will worry even more about traffic.
And of course this leads to the really good news..... Many more stupid threads on here about bad fans.

Unfortunately, it is probably going to get worse. I really hope not, but at best I can only see it staying the same.

all non-conf games as well as MSU and UK will be leave early games
Ole Miss and Bama won't
there's your answer

have you not seen the home schedule this year? the stadium should be empty in the 4th quarter of most of the games.

Probably going to the stay the same. If that is true, it means that several juniors will have had excellent seasons and get good draft grades. This in turn opens up recruiting spots. It is up to the coaches to find out how best to deal with the system and to maximize the benefit of getting exposure and telling players they can get a chance to play early and if they are good enough to go to the nfl early.

well considering the NFL adopted a new policy on draft grades, where I think they will only give 1st, 2nd or stay it may help. Lets hope the players stay.

What's interesting to me is that for the New Mexico State game there will be maybe 80,000 people in the stands at kickoff, and absolutely 0% excitement before or during the game. 1/2 the crowd that does show up will leave at halftime, and it will take an OBJ missed FG type of play to get people excited.
Yet if the team doesn't come out fired up like they are playing Alabama and destroy NMSU 55-0, then this board and radio will be filled with people bitching about how they need to get motivated and we should have been able to get our backups for playing time. And I'd bet a large number of those people would be the same ones that either didn't show up or left early.

Have you seen our schedule? The stadium will be dead for over half the games this year (3 joke OOC games and Kentucky). The same could happen for Miss St. Ole Miss and Bama will be good, though.

I hope it will be better for a couple of reasons:
1. We have TONS of incredible freshmen that will see playing time rise towards the end of these easier games. Including Fournette, Dupre, and Quinn. Also, we get to see more of the QBs. This isn't a situation where we have a starter that sits and everyone leaves.
2. The new stadium is much more enjoyable. Better TVs, more shade, and wifi available so people can check other scores of bigger games.

stay same, or get worse

Same students. Shitty schedule. Every game on tv without PPV. It'll be worse from now on.
