This would be a rather big venue for the Bison to play in for a neutral site regular season game...Hopefully the place is pretty full for it!
See my earlier post for details. This game will likely be the first game of the BB&T Classic, with a game between George Washington and Maryland to follow. Even with two games, however, they may not fill the place. Last year's classic, with GMU vs American and Maryland vs GW, drew just under 12,000 people. This year, the MD - GW matchup, may be a bit less of a draw, but GMU is now a big name and the GMU-BU matchup is a lot more attractive than the American-GMU game was last year. (There was also a Howard-Navy afternoon game last year that probably had little effect on the overall attendance.)
