Could Any Game This Season Break Autzen Attendance Record Set Last Year VS Ohio State?

Recommended Posts

Could it be against the Beavers?  This might be the last game against the rodents for a long time!  Or could it be against those terrible Trojans?

The Oregon Ducks smashed their attendance record at Autzen Stadium last year on Oct. 12. The anticipated matchup between the Ducks...

Hmmmm…the attendance record games usually have something more compelling involved than we won’t be scheduled to play for an extended period of time.

 

The only interesting thing would be how long our backup QB gets to play in the 2nd half, and will he be able to beat the spread.

Theoretically... Yes... 

 

In reality... No. 

 

If the Beavers were better then maybe the prospect of the last civil war could draw more of a crowd. 

 

But that rivalry feels more dead than alive.

A rivalry is a special thing in any sport. They are a mixture of love and hate: love for one’s team and loathing for the...

 

Washington is an away game. 

 

USC is a maybe if both teams are undefeated but and it's a big BUT that game is at almost the end of the season and the likelihood of USC being undefeated by that point is highly unlikely.

I’d say odds are slim.

 

Looking at the schedules:

 

- USC could have 4+ losses and a coaching change by November

- OSU could happen if they were unbeaten or 2-1, but look impressive against Cal and @Texas Tech. More likely they’ll be 1-2 at best though.

The game against the Buckeyes last season was big and a B1G game. A game against the Beavs isn't either of those. The game against the Trojans is B1G, but Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota are more compelling B1G games.

As David Marsh noted, not likely in 2025 unless SC is contending for a spot in the B1G champ game.

 

2026 sees Michigan and Nebraska in Autzen. Nebraska fans travel. Either visitor could break the record. Conference game dates are not set.

 

2027 sees both Penn State and Ohio State in Autzen. Conference game dates are not set.

 

Ohio State or Penn State could break the record, which could then be broken in the same season by the other visitor. Iowa will also visit in 2027. Only six home games in 2027, but the season ticket sales record and the secondary market ticket price record could both be broken.
