Hmmm...It's not likely to happen, but that is a hell of a question (LOL). For starters, you'd have to have a venue that can hold that many people. The only venue I can think of that can hold 90,000 is the Cotton Bowl.

it’s a thought. If everyone were to go in the game I think a big game could hit it

 

[Hey Que]

In this day and time, I don't see it. With so many games being on TV/Internet casual fans will stay at home.

 

[Buc98]

If they played the Bayou Classic in Baton Rouge at Tiger Stadium? Maybe small outside chance?

Jerryworld, Darrel K. Royal, and Kyle Field are the only other ones in Texas . No HBCU game will draw over 90k in any of those locations though.

I used the Cotton Bowl because that is the only venue currently being used that could accommodate such a crowd.

I thought that or a SU vs JSU game depending on records and something like a 2010 rivalry with the bands

NOTTTTTT ONE !!

 

[Olde Hornet]

None. I cant see any of the FCS schools doing it.

 

[In_The_662]

None. I think our max is the MCC and BC (around 60-70K) which is great compared to other FCS schools

I don't know about those numbers tha

Please! The biggest Southern vs j st crowd was 99. That was about 60 to 63,000 at that game. 90,000 to 100,000 will never happen.

Black americans are too assimilated & simultaneously apathetic towards HBCUs, as we know them. Unless x-over appeal occurs, I don't see it occurring anytime soon. You'll find your answers locally w/ those you may interact w/ or are in your environment(s) on a daily basis. If they're uninterested, you already know...

[Tigerpride]

97 and 99 were pretty much neck and neck. It rained cats and dogs in 01 and then we had the Bell Error... LOL

JSU vs. SU attendance:

1997: 60,319
1999: 55,000

SWAC, JSU are I-AA attendance champs

Southern vs. JSU always hit with fans

 

[JROCK]

I believe the largest BCF attendance game was the 1974 Bayou Classic (76,000) in Old Tulane Stadium.

 

[2kool]

AAMU and Alabama State in Bryant Denny.

In other words, never
