Looks like there is white on the toe???

I had the same thought. Burr's shoes have a lot of white. Just curious what shoes they are wearing.

Hard to tell. I like a little white, but that looks odd.

Ford field looks very empty. Not a lot of fans at the game.

Has the NCAA approved wingtips for officals? Or was that the TV lights glaring on patent leather?

There were 25K plus at the game.....I agree though, it looked fairly empty because it seats over 70K and those wide angle shots made it look cavernous. Wonder how good those upper level seats are? We'll see how many folks they stuff in there for the NCAA Championships later in the season......

More than probably go to Lions games.

I noticed the same thing during the Old Spice "Classic" in Orlando. It's not as big a venue, obviously, but it looked like the place was empty.

Bottom line, the games make more money from TV revenue than from ticket revenue.

the thing in Orlando has actually grown a lot since it started 3 (maybe 4) years ago. it's not a huge arena, but it does handle a nice crowd. I think if they keep at it, they will eventually fill it up.
