And besides, if the series starting one day earlier causes 10,000+ fans to make alternate weekend plans when we are playing for a conference title, then that only further proves my point.
Well that Arkansas series was after finals, so ~20K of our potential attendees were headed home or to the beach/lake to party. Starkville area doesn't have the population to seemlessly replace ~20K students leaving town. As we discussed above, BR does have the population to replace any attendance loss due to students being out of town.
