I'm an old fart. Class of 1980. Rolled into Stillwater in 1976 after four years in the Marines.
My son played baseball for Gary Ward at New Mexico State, so I used to follow several Sunbelt schools. I remember when you guys first got cranked up and were so excited about going D1A in football. Well now you're here. Let's strap it on.

OSU 41, FAU 17
i really think our offense can do something against OSU this week… obviously a blow-out, nonetheless

Here is an interesting article as to why it likely will not ever become the HUGE issue that the NCAA wants it to be. They have struggled for years to make attendance an issue. It is ridiculous. And I'm not just saying this as an FAU fan, the so-called "law" is intrinsically flawed.
Read this article to see why it is and hopefully will remain a non-issue.

http://www.macreportonline.com/15k_rule.htmlNow, yes, it is an opinion and yes FAU will still strive to meet the numbers but why talk about it. If we start whooping the pants off bigger name schools, then what? Who's to say we don't belong out there because our school is still growing? UF wasn't built in a day - they didn't have sellout games in the beginning - quite the opposite actually. OSU - the same story. Look past such ridiculous issues - get your head IN THE GAME. GO OWLS!!!
