Today's announced attendance vs UNM was 84,748. That is the lowest attendance we have had in the renovated Kyle Field and the lowest overall since the Nov 6, 2010 win over #11 Oklahoma 33-19 which had 81,392 fans.

The rain I'm sure drove up ticket sales. Not to mention the tropical storm earlier in the week.

It's a hot 11am game against New Mexico while favored by 30 with a backup QB after a year of covid.

Not concerned.

11 am game vs a lack luster opponent in the midst of a pandemic and rain in the forecast.. 81k people seems like a lot.

11am non conference game in September. Not the most highly desired circumstances.

100,000 + for Nicholls State in 2017 after a loss at UCLA makes less sense than this... I'd say that makes this interesting.

I sold my tickets but yeah after a hot game against Kent State then travelling to Colorado last week we decided to take a break this weekend with a hot early game against a boring opponent. I'm sure many Aggies made similar decisions.

It will be packed for SEC opening play in October don't worry.

Oh c'mon... those of you mentioning the pandemic like you didn't sit and admire the D-list celebrities not wearing a mask at the Met Gala a few days ago.

COVID is impacting attendance all over the country. Tickets are much cheaper. Lowest ticket price today $11. Texas/Rice tickets as low as $7.

I'm going to miss st game in 2 weeks and paying half of what I paid 5 years ago.

I'm glad we had low attendance today. Maybe our AD will stop scheduling these games.

September day games should NEVER be scheduled in College Station, Texas.

NEVER!

The fact that you find that interesting is interesting.

Don't need to go that far. But, I'll settle for a G5 team or someone like Rutgers or some other barely P5 team.

We totally could have filled those seats with some Del Rio migrants.

And still would have been a record-setting crowd when I was in school.

And this crowd was for New Mexico.

It's very interesting, but which part was interesting for you?

announced attendance is tickets sold
1) people are dropping season tickets mostly because of price & they are too old
2) thousands of students did not pull tickets
3) because getting tickets on the secondary markets is easy people are not becoming season ticket holders

I am an old and I refuse to go to anymore September 11am games. My recliner is just fine at that if day.

If you are a season ticket holder you'd be included in the attendance count

Another dumb thread after an 11AM shut out and the FIGHTIN Texas Aggies are ranked in Top 10 across many categories.

Then you may not be able to watch the games. TV partners have time slots to fill and everyone gets an 11 o'clock kick. We could go back to not being on TV and schedule the time ourselves.
