South Carolina's scrimmage had 38,000.  How many did we have at our scrimmage?  I estimated to be around 8,000, but I never heard the actual number.

I know that it all has to do with Spurrier's return to coaching, but how nice would it be to have that kind of turnout for spring scrimmages?

I heard Nebraska had 52,000.....
That's because there isn't jacksh*t to do in the springtime in Nebraska - plant wheat and attend the Bugeater spring game.

South Carolina's attendance was due to the marketing of the spring game with free cigarettes and warm Milwaukee's Best.

Nebraska 52,000?  Maybe Nebraska icon Trev Alberts made a special guest speech to deliver his semi-annual Houston Nutt put down tirade.  :D

For an extra 25 cents they would roll the can around on an ice block for you. The cigs were stale though.

Our turnout for the spring game is so bad because the product is so bad.  I don't mean that the Hogs are bad but the exhibition is not real exciting if you haven't noticed.  If we were to really split into two descent teams and have a real red vs white game I'm betting we could get around 30,000 or so but it's going to take a few titles before were really packing em in.

why would 50000 or 38000 hog fans want to go see the marcus monk throw our first td pass. or watch lengthy breaks because of all of the injuries on the o-line. i've got better things to do on my saturday.
