Coastal Carolina tickets for the game this weekend were $15.. as usual, Montana is paying for everyone else's playoff experience.
2013 and 2011 are the only first round byes the Griz have received. Before 2010 there was only16 teams in the tournament so all teams in the tournament started play Thanksgiving weekend.get'em_griz said:Attendance for the last few opening playoff games at WA-Griz
2014 -- 14,018 vs San Diego - W 52-14
2013 -- 17,345 vs Coastal Carolina - L 42-35
2014 attendance was due to the major winter storm that hit the same weekend.
2013 was most likely due to the cold, but at that point was one of the lowest first-round attendance games.
Before 2013, we usually had a bye during the Thanksgiving weekend. Attendance always goes back up after this weekend.

Exactly! :clap: We must have the highest season FCS ticket prices in the country. If the athletic dept. turns its back on providing cost of attendance stipends (thus confirming their assumption that Griz fans will show up and pay outrageous ticket prices no matter what the win-loss record is), then maybe prices will become more reasonable as attendance drops.grizindabox said:wbtfg said:Got it...I guess th6at makes sense. The ncaa doesn't Jack up the price, but the restrict schools from selling below regular season market value.
I really dislike the ncaa.....
maybe you should dislike the UM athletic department ticket pricing model....

:thumb: I agree, this is a bonus game and I am going to enjoy it. I can't control what other people do, and everyone has their reasons for not going, so rather than worry about it or cast judgement I'm just going to go to the game and have as much fun as possible.get'em_griz said:I forgot that we had a bye in 2013. It'll be a sad day if we only manage 12,500 fans.
... actually, no. It'll suck for all those people who stayed home while those of us who go get to enjoy another live Griz football game! :thumb:

Not worth the risk. Newspapers have the stories of those who ignore reality, and road reports.

Didn't you already have to turn in your gear to the equipment manager? Seriously, I don't really follow the Cats, but when was the last time they won a playoff game?
