That's still humiliating, and any school that can only draw those numbers should really consider moving down to division II where they can be more competitive.

Sitting here, drinking my coffee, enjoying the rain, and now you have me all nostalgic for the days when we used to beat the Terps .... (no need to dwell on the few times we lost)
Yes, life is good!

filled the lower deck at Clemson for a Spring Game. It use to be that no matter where you sat, you had plenty of room. Winning changed that, and Maryland hasn't won anything since Ralph Friedgen won the ACC in 2001.

Here's another shot at the other end of the field. If it's fake then they sure did a good job making it look empty.

other end of the field? Yes. Other side of the

stadium? No. Look, I'm not saying they had 30,000 on the other side of the stadium, just they had more than what is being portrayed in the pictures. It's sensationalism, bending the truth, and really just lying. I can't stand Maryland. Heck the closest I've ever come to getting into a fist fight at a game was in those stands with obnoxious Maryland fans. But I do enjoy some truth in reporting.

If you take the % of what their stadium holds to ours, then not as big a gap as you'd think.

This is amazing! I remember when I was a kid, we feared Maryland and were beaten by them many times. Things certainly have changed! Now we are feared! Feels good to be a Tiger!

That move to the BiG is really paying off.
Maryland is a lacrosse school. Scar is a WBB school.
Everyone knows this. It's unfair to expect fans to show up for a practice of a sport they don't care about.

Any obscure 70s or 80s band reunion tour would draw more.

I bet there was a bunch of leftovers in the concession stands, and great parking too.
