A Dawg win. Most seem to think it will be roughly around the spread, with a few saying it will be close.

Attendance wise the predictions are any where from 10,000 to 25,000 with the upper estimates based on our reputation as good travelers.

Our fans travel pretty well, but probably not to New England for an early season game. If it was a bowl game, yes.

I think there's going to be a lot of Bulldogs up there. It's a great area to spend a long weekend.

They had a little over 12,000 against FIU last week for an on-campus game.

I'll be surprised if the total is much higher than 20,000 in actuality. I think you'll see a few thousand Bulldogs in attendance. Our first game in the Northeast in 30 years.

I think they played BC in week 2 at Gillette and got less than 20k.

I'm sure when we roll into town tickets will go like hotcakes.

25,112 per Wikipedia. No doubt there's gonna be a lot of empty seats on Saturday. Not too concerned with my 15-yard line tickets cause I figure we'll be able to more or less just go sit where we want to. Not that 15-yard line lower level is a terrible seat to begin with. I figure attendance will be close to 15,000.

after seeing how few dogs traveled to houston to watch us play, OK St, I'd say anything over 15k total in that stadium would be a win for the region.

Who did we play then? Maybe Rutgers?

I doubt we have a huge contingency, but I would think Boston would be a more attractive destination than Houston to our fans not within easy driving distance of Houston.

Since moving to Georgia, I was just curious. There is the typical 247, rivals, and SECrant but I couldn't find anything independent, but I just tried again and I found dawgs.com which was down the last time I checked, and one site (collegesports-fans.com) only gave a review of 3, as opposed to the same site giving sixpack a 10 (of course). Kinda surprising that there isn't more.

I thought we had a good crowd at that game. Don't forget that we were spread out over a whole side rather than packed into a visitor's section.

Rockey Felker's first game. They were favored, but we won, and then won on the road at #8 Tennessee the next week. We thought the golden age of MSU football had arrived. How wrong we were.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. With the game not being at risk of a sellout, I was thinking tickets should be at a reasonable price at the gate or by scalpers. Stubhub might be the safer route however.

Didn't Syracuse have a championship team in that era? Might've been back in the 60s or 70s.

Thanks! I actually saw that one on the search but assumed it was just basketball so didn't even click on it.

By the amount of activity, I'd say it pretty much is just basketball. There are a few football poster though.
