    I don't know how you could get an accurate count, but I'd say it was damn close to being an even split. They travel about the best I have seen.

    Most news reports I've seen list the French Quarter as a 50/50 split pregame and the dome about 60/40 LSU.

    I tried but I kept losing count when some azzes would get up and walk to the bathroom before I could finish.

    I was in the Dome, and I have to disagree. I thought about this during the game, and I think we had at least 2/3 of the seats. A fan from OSU was on the phone and he told his friend they were outnumbered 2 to 1.

    I sat on the LSU side on the 20 yard line. The other side of the dome looked pretty solidly red to me. Hell of alot more OSU fans that ND fans walking around during the day.

    Ohio State has a large student body and their fans travel well. I think it was 55-45 to 60-40 LSU inside the Dome. Of course, we always sound like it's 90% Tiger fans and we had more to cheer about. With about five minutes to go, we had them 90-10...:hihi: .

    Anytime we play a school who wears red or orange, their numbers always seem high because those colors stand out real well.

    With that said...I do believe there were more Buckeye fans here (or were at least out partying more) than what I've seen when we played Nebraska, Illinois, Oklahoma, or Notre Dame in the Dome. They represented their university very well.

    THANKS to the Tiger Women!!! They showed once again why us LSU boys are usually smiling. We might not win every game but damn our women always smoke our opponents! :thumb:

    Congrats Coach Miles!!!...That's a huge set of balls we now have in the football office...and the two crystal ones are nice too! :miles:

    I was at the very top of the LSU side. My best guess is 60-40, and absolutely no higher than 65-35. LSU stretched far into the Loge sections on the OSU sideline, and onto the OSU side of the goal posts in the LSU EZ.

    I'd say 65-35 lsu....red drowns other colors out, so it always lokks like there were more than there really were. Sunday, Bourbon was 50-50, but leading up tp the game it was about 75% LSU. After it was about 95% LSU.
