Several people on the Ga Tech forums talking about the Dayton fans and how loud and numerous they were compared to the Tech students and general fan base.
There were 6,283 announced tonight -- probably closer to 4,000 actually in the seats. This was one of Tech's better non-con home games on their schedule. We know when BG comes to Dayton there will be 13,500 in the stands.
Im sure BG is happy in Atlanta and has BCS resources and is coaching in the best basketball conference in the country by far. Its a sweet gig no doubt.
But a little part of me wonders if BG, just for a fleeting moment, looked in the stands at those Red sweatshirts (including a few
Red Scare t-shirts I saw) and thought to himself, "I can replicate a lot of things here, but I will never replicate the passion in the stands. It'll never be like it used to be."
