There were definitely BYU fans and one big section, but less BYU fans in the Utah sections than expected. I was one of a few fans in my section, not many at all.

Maybe BYU fans hid it more and were more quiet?

Maybe my expectations on the number of BYU fans was way off going into the game?

Mostly because they were generally terrible in the PAC, but still kind of cool

That's why it stinks that Kansas State lost to ASU on Saturday. C'mon Wildcats!

Well us losing to Kansas put us in a very bad position and made this game huge

It will be along the line of the Phoenix Open

My guess is that there will be at least 10,000 BYU fans or roughly 20%.

I really wonder if ASU fans don't know how many BYU fans may already have tix

An awkward question regarding BYU fans at BYU/Utah

krindorr

There were a lot of BYU fans at the Utah game. I'm surprised you couldn't hear the roar of the crowd

To be fair, I was watching late night and had it pretty quiet

My guess is closer to 20k BYU fans. ASU fans weren't really buying tickets

Agreed, outside of Utah and Oregon the former P12 schools don't have loud, crazy fans.

It wasn't close to being sold out either. This one will be.

I bought my tickets in July… based on stubhub in my section, I could sell them for 10x what I paid
