I believe this was the largest crowd the Bobcats have ever played before, bigger than the OSU game a couple of years ago.  And it will be interesing to see the national TV viewership ratings on ESPN.  And I also hope the win sparks a tremendous turnout in Athens for  New Mexico State.

Bigger by a smidge than UT in 09, but both 08 and 10 OSU games were over 105.

That's Estadio Azteca-esque.

While that is a huge attendance figure, it was actually the third smallest crowd at Beaver Stadium since the 2001 expansion.  Only last year's Eastern Michigan and Indiana State games had smaller crowds.  It was also the smallest crowd to see a PSU loss since the expansion. The previous record was 100,353 for 2004's 14-7 Northwestern win.

I'm pretty sure that was the largest crowd to see an OHIO victory.

Have to think the 61,514 at Kentucky in 2004 was the biggest crowd to witness an Ohio victory.
