Re: Spring Game attendance...

Houston: 3,000

This year's red & white game was a blast. The weather was ideal and our new Texas Tech-esque offense was definitely fun to watch. Incumbent starting QB Case Keenum was solid (28 of 35, 205 yds, 2 tds) but was overshadowed by the performance of Blake Joseph (37 of 41, 421 yds, 5 tds.).

That's not accurate as well. If Florida State had some huge attendance number you would be singing the praises of spring games ha.

No I wouldn't, it is an intrasquad scrimmage. The only thing it is good for is recruiting and that is even debatable at this time of the year. That being said the best thing to happen to FSU football in the past 10 years happened in the spring game when Dan Kendra blew his knee out paving the way for Chris Weinke take take over.

Interestingly enough Drew Weatherford got hurt this spring and Christian Ponder became the offensive MVP and D'Vo Richardson showed some freakish athleticism at QB. Hopefully history repeats itself.

Since Florida State had 30,000 in attendance, I think you might be wrong on this one.

Yes it really is because to have high attendance at an intrasquad scrimmage shows that support, and interest in the program is strong...which is a good thing.

Someone said the game was a drunkfest? Funny thing that I didn't notice any drunks at the game.

This thread is going down hill in a hurry.
