Why won't IU come to MS?

I would be they double us for a game against Northwestern.

As if IU draws that big of a crowd at their home football games? I bet we got more on homecoming than they do for a Big Ten game.

Err.. IU drew an average of over 41,000 fans for each of their 6 home games in 2010. Indiana State drew an average of 5,478.

It's not even close.

IU averaged 40k a game in 2009 (didn't do much searching and that was what I came up with... )

:bigsmile: Thanks for the chuckle!!

Even with the abysmal state that IS gloomington football; their turnstile count is higher than ours; as to WHO those folks cheer for once inside the stadium...

And if you factor in the tailgate crowd in gloomington; the numbers get worse...

Great enthusiasm, landrus!! You definitely have rose-colored glasses!

We need to try and get a game at Notre Dame in the future, playing in a historic venue and playing against one of the greatest football traditions ever.

Notre Dame doesn't play FCS schools.

Notre Dame doesn't play FCS schools.

That's true (at least since 1978...)

What about their all-time series...

And those aren't about to start playing FCS schools now

Went to an OSU homegame at Bloomington a couple of years ago. SO many OSU fans that they were able to do the O-H-I-O chant from all 4 corners of the stadium.. Tailgate crowd was 75 percent Buckeye fans..

Why won't IU come to MS? We went there a couple of seasons ago, and then we go there 2 more times, but why won't they play here?

Do you have any clue about what you are saying ?
