we know TCU has 37 real fans

[HFCS]

Just a 7 point Big 12 game....stands are COMPLETELY EMPTY!!!

Why the need to expand a stadium that's empty when you're ranked #15?

When they are ahead do the fans stay?

I was thinking the same thing - didn't they spen a lot of money renovating their stadium? The end zones are empty....

on the other hand, their women dress to the 9's for games.

Radio show said it was kind of cold for Texas. About 55 degrees. I was lolling pretty hard.

 

[GrindingAway]

They said in the pregame they paid cash for it. If you have it might as well spend it.

 

[SplitIdentity]

Really embarrassing for them.

 

[HFCS]

that one stinks when TCU D has been living offsides all game

In Texas, playing isu is a game nobody cares to see. ISU should be changing that perception.

Fall break for TCU students is Monday and Tuesday so many are out of town. That may be only a few thousand fans but it makes a huge difference.

We're going to be a hard draw for a small fanbase that relies on walkups to fill out the stadium.

I believe the Texas state fair is also going on right now.

 

[copenhagen]

that was pathetic.

TCU fan base is puny. They are like Baylor.

They don't, and will never, need capacity for our game. Much like baylor they have the capacity to capitalize on when UT, TTU, OU, OSU, and Baylor fans (to varying degrees) come and add a ton of fans to their stadium. Theyre more than happy to take money from longhorn (and other) fans.

One of the biggest downsides of being on an outpost like we are now is that other than for a few games, we have to rely on our fans, and our fans alone, to fill our stadium.

Understand....their stadium capacity is approximately equal to the number of living alumni they have in total. They're smaller than UNI by like 4k students. I'm thinking 7K undergrads if I recall correctly. We need to turn that place into JTS south in a few years. Bus trip!!!!!

And filling it we are. Pathetic for tcu's first game in big time football since 1995.
