Has anyone ever figured out whether or not Jack Trice's capacity of 61,500 is just the physical bleacher seats or does that include hillsides?

It's everything. Hillsides were added to the official capacity after Pollard arrived.

Before that, you'd have Nebraska/Iowa games with 51,000+ attendance despite an "official" capacity of 43,000.

I watched the UCF / Cincinnati game. Actually UCF moved the ball quite well. They had two killer turnovers that hurt them, so take those out and who knows what happens. They fumbled at their own 5 and then held UC to a field goal. And with one minute left they drove the field and had a chance to win with 4 seconds left, but Cincy blitzed and sacked the QB.

This is another game where we can't take anything for granted just yet. We will still need to avoid penalties and turnovers I think. Just straight up, I agree we should win, but these guys are not inept from what I saw. They can give us a game if we don't show up. My two cents.

UCF cannot really pass the ball. They are a worse version of WVU imo. Same gameplan, however they will try to run the ball way more. Need to get on them early, and they may just fold
