BC and Gameday


Nov 4, 2018, 7:30 PM

Does anyone else think that BC stadium will be half empty from a BC fan perspective and their Ganeday show turnout will be an embarrassment ?

I would rather GameDay not be there if that is the case. They should be challenged to show up .

I dunno. Boston College has less than 10K students. Maybe to increase turnout they should run some free shuttles over from Boston U, which has twice as many students as BC.

They have a hockey game Friday night. No way the students will be up by 9 am

I'm sure Clemson fans will make up for their poor showing.***

It was full in 2016. Night game but earlier in the season. Red bandana game. Clemson was ranked #3.

gameday should be crowded. the students will all show up especially in this FOMO society that we all live in. plus, other students nearby with no connection to the school will prob go as well to be seen on TV etc.

as for the game, the stadium should be packed and as loud as 44K people can possibly be. the seats are aluminum bleachers so the sound just reverberates off them especially when people are stomping on them. night games, red bandana games in this decade and some of the ND/FSU ones in the early aughts were good proof of that.

that said, I cannot guarantee people will be there at the kickoff. BC fans are notorious for strolling in late to games. a lot of that has to do IMHO with the fact that the school limits tailgating before (for night games, maybe 3 hours IIRC) and people who drive 6-8 hours to the games to see friends and fellow graduates etc. tend to want to stay and drink a few extra beers in the parking lots. I hope I am wrong here though because it would look good for my school to have a packed stadium at kickoff.

I would guess on a full house at KO as there's warmth in

crowds and numbers, plus 8 o'clock. Dark, cold, and maybe wet for hours leading up.

Boston sports fans in general might make a go of ESPN's Gameday production Saturday morning when the traffic's good? It won't be Bowman by any measure. Hopefully it feels like home once the real action gets started.
