NDSU vs Tennessee St in Nashville?

[HerdBot]

Little different for that one. Destination game yes. But an easy trip for a good majority of the fan base... We knew what it was game wise...

Very different. Twin cities has the most alumni and is a short drive. Next year it's actually good opponent.

Nashville would be really fun but it's not an easy drive and the opponent is meh. Get me actual Memphis and I'm there

But the crowd for Arizona was huge. Power 5 opponent, obviously

I don’t think it’s unrealistic to think 10k Bison fans and maybe even more attend the game given the location in Nashville. It won’t be anywhere close to the Twin Cities games in terms of Bison fans but I would guess that Tennessee State will have a good turnout as well so it likely will be a good crowd overall and hopefully NDSU can plan some fun activities around the game for fans to attend.

The NFL stadium is interesting. Some of their games draw like 6k and others vs Jackson State draw 50k. But the Tennesee stadium isnt historic. Its not like its at Fenway, Soldier Field or Lambeau

It will be more fan friendly than 99% of the stadiums NDSU typically plays in so that’s an upside. TSU won’t have 50k there but given NDSU’s reputation I would guess they should be able to get 15-20k.

Arizona also had a large concentration of NDSU alumni and direct flights out of Hector.
