    NRF pricing going to be a huge problem

    I hope you’re right. But other than ‘95 and ‘96 we haven’t really caught the imagination or interest of the locals. Even with our high powered offense in 2000, my recall is that it was a 50/50 mix of fans at the wild Michigan game. Maybe the new stadium and continued success will bring in more...

    MSU is awful, need to be the hell out of them

    But MSU going for two with the Illini playing their second string QB was another strange coaching decision.

    NRF pricing going to be a huge problem

    Looks like it’s 50% full. For Iowa it will be 50% yellow. We’re unable to attract the average Chicago area sports fan.

    Sold Out

    We are in section 117, two rows from the concourse, and I saw a number of empty seats. But a lot of people seemed to watch the game from the concourse, especially by a spot at the railing where there is a small bar that allowed them to easily eat their food, drink their beers and watch the game.

    Explain Empty Seats and Pricey Tickets -- Didn't Make Sense....

    Without the students the atmosphere yesterday evening was pretty lame. No buzz or energy in the crowd.

    Why are tickets so expensive for the Western game?

    They should be giving them away. Stadium is fairly empty 20 minutes before kick-off.

    The dark ages are back?

    Been going to NU games since the dark ages. Don’t ever remember QB running 69 for a TD. The way they’re playing today, it might be a year of many head shaking firsts.

    Game Thread: Northwestern at Tulane

    Neither the O or D coordinator is looking good today. The play calling when we had fourth and goal was questionable. On fourth and eight we don’t pressure the QB. Maybe this is just a wasted year until the new stadium is open for a new coaching staff.

    Ten Questions: 8. Can Northwestern restore home-field advantage?

    Their fans were as insufferable as any OSU fan I’ve seen at Ryan or the former Shoe. And if you have seats in the north end zone avoid taking the walkway under them. The stands are essentially scaffolding so objects can fall or be intentionally pushed onto people walking below. left the IU...
