More than 150,000 fans are expected to attend this weekends game between Tennessee and Virginia Tech at Bristol Motor Speedway.That would be the biggest crowd for a college football game in modern history. It would shatter the NCAA single-game record of 115,109, set in 2013 when Michigan beat Notre Dame 41-30 at the Big House.But how does it compare to other really big team sporting events?Heres a look at some of the largest crowds for a single game between teams, which excludes events like Formula One races and cumulative attendance for things like the World Cup. Oh, and its a really inexact science.TOP THIS: Theres a reason the gold-medal soccer match for this summers Rio Olympics was held at Maracana Stadium. Its a place steeped in historical significance for Brazil and it hosted whats considered the largest crowd ever for a soccer game.An estimated 199,854 fans watched Brazil play Uruguay at Maracana during the 1950 World Cup.Some say its likely the match topped 200,000, but there were 173,850 tickets sold, the full allotment.The reason so many people were able to squeeze into the venue was because there werent many seats, just grandstands, adding meaning to the phrase standing room only.Oh, and Uruguay won the match, 2-1, meaning most of those folks werent cheering when it was over.RUMOR HAS IT: The actual record for a college football game in the United States may have been set the year before the stock market crashed to spark the Great Depression.It occurred on Oct. 13, 1928, at Chicagos Soldier Field. An estimated crowd of 120,000 watched Notre Dame defeat rival Navy 7-0. The crowd rivaled the number who saw Notre Dame edge USC at the same venue the year before -- but the actual number of sold tickets for the game against the Trojans was listed at 99,573, while the Navy game had 103,081 paid, so it gets the edge.THE UNKNOWN: The stadium with the greatest capacity in the world is the Rungrado May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, North Korea. The arena can hold 150,000 and has been used for soccer matches, including a friendship game between North and South Korean labor unions.Theres really no way of knowing whether soccer matches or any other event have set an attendance record, because, well, its in North Korea. But we do know its huge.PLAYING FOR PRAGUE: When World War II ended in Europe, two U.S. Army units played an American football game at Strahov Stadium in Prague. It is said that 400,000 war-weary people attended the September 1945 game to celebrate, although that number could not be verified.The game was replayed last year to mark the 70th anniversary, although at a different site. Strahov Stadium is no longer used for sporting events.HISTORIC HAMPDEN: The legendary stadium in Glasgow hosted an international between Scotland and England in 1937 that had an announced attendance of 149,415. But some say the actual total number of spectators was far greater because of special guests, the media and police at the game.The doors were eventually closed leaving thousands shut out, and the home team rallied for a 3-1 victory.SOCCER STATESIDE: Michigan Stadium was also the scene of the best-attended soccer match in the United States, when 109,318 fans showed up to watch Real Madrid play Manchester United in an International Cup match in 2014.HEY! WHAT ABOUT THE SUPER BOWL? The biggest crowd to watch the NFL championship in person was the 103,985 fans at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, on Jan. 20, 1980. Terry Bradshaw led the Pittsburgh Steelers to a 31-19 victory over the Los Angeles Rams.

Cheap NFL Jerseys China . Thats about all he can do right now, so hes trying not to think about when he might be able to play again for the Los Angeles Lakers. Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys . After Mondays hard-fought loss, the wait seemed longer than usual. Getting set to go their separate ways for a short Christmas break, the Raptors coach credited his team for their effort on a seemingly impossible three-game road trip, urging them to build on that success when they get back to work at the end of the week.Ian Holloway gave his Football League play-off semi-final first-leg predictions, tipping a draw at Valley Parade on Sunday. Portsmouth and Plymouth kicked off the schedule with a thrilling 2-2 draw at Fratton Park on Thursday, while Sheffield Wednesday beat Brighton 2-0 on Friday night and Hull won 3-0 at Derby on Saturday.Meanwhile, Barnsley saw off Walsall 3-0 and Tom Beeres last-minute winner gave AFC Wimbledon a 1-0 advantage going into their second leg against Accrington Stanley. Bradford v Millwall, League One (Sunday from 12pm on Sky Sports 1 HD)I fancy Millwall strongly to win the play-offs.Neil Harris is leading a fresh young team into a new era and hes done a brilliant job. They probably could have done with avoiding Bradford in the play-offs as theyre a dangerous outfit at Valley Parade and have only conceded one goal there in the last seven games. I fancy Millwall strongly to win the play-offs. Neil Harris is leading a fresh young team into a new era and hes done a brilliant job Ollie on Millwall However, over two legs, Millwall should have enough firepower in Lee Gregory and Steve Morison to get the job done. A draw here would be a great result for the Lions.OLLIE PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds 6/1)Ollies earlier predictions...AFC Wimbledon v Accrington Stanley, League TwoHow unlucky were Accrington last weekend? All they needed was a win to go up but they drew 0-0 and hit the crossbar three times. Highlights of the Sky Bet League 2 semi final 1st leg between Wimbledon and Accrington. It would be a fantastic story if they were to see the job via the play-offs - their fans deserve a Wembley day out.Saying that, AFC Wimbledons fans also deserve a huge amount of credit to stick with their team during some dark days. This will be a cagey game as AFC dont concede too many. OLLIE PREDICTED: 1-1 - RESULT: 1-0Barnsley v Walsall, League OneThis has all the credentials for a wham-bam game! Goals galore.Both teams will be full of confidence. Barnsley sensationally hammered the champions last weekend while Walsall scored some absolute screamers as they dismantled Port Vale. Highlights of the Sky Bet League 1 semi-final 1st leg between Barnsley and Walsall. I do feel sorry for Walsall, though - a bit like Brighton, theyve had a fantastic season but just fell short despite amassing a big total of points.Sam Winnall has bagged 22 goals this season for Barnsley and I feel he has to be at his clinical best if Barnsley, who have had a strange yet sensational season, are to really trouble Walsall over two legs. OLLIE PREDICTED: 2-2 - RESULT: 3-0Derby County v Hull City, ChampionshipI was worried about Derbys mentality earlier this season, but theyve turned a corner in that regard. On their day, they can wipe the floor with anyone.This is a tough test for Hull, who Im shocked didnt finish in the top two. They have relied on Abel Hernandez to score their goals this season - no one else has chipped in regularly - and they have slippeed up in too many winnable games.dddddddddddd Highlights of the Championship play-off semi-final between Derby and Hull at the iPro Stadium. Both these teams have unbelievable talent on show. This game could be any scoreline if there is an early goal, especially now George Thorne is missing for Derby. He gives his back four plenty of protection.In their last seven league games, both teams have scored a total of 28 goals. I fancy a thriller here with Derby just edging it.OLLIE PREDICTED: 3-2 - RESULT: 0-3Sheffield Wednesday v Brighton, ChampionshipSheffield Wednesday have had a fantastic season and have a free shot at this now. I always love the underdog and will be delighted for them to defy the odds, although Brighton deserve to go up.Hillsborough will be rocking and rolling, the locals will be right up for this and their team will be able to play with the shackles off. Highlights of the Championship play-off semi-final between Sheffield Wednesday and Brighton at Hillsborough. However, they are bumping into a Brighton team that racked up 89 points in the Championship - a total usually more than enough to go up with.How will they overcome last weekends disappointment? Thats the key question.Brighton will probably be looking to keep this tight then get them down to the Amex on Monday. But Ive got a sneaky feeling Wednesday will give their home fans something to shout about. Home win.OLLIE PREDICTED: 2-1 - RESULT: 2-0Portsmouth v Plymouth Argyle, League TwoDerek Adams will be making sure his Plymouth boys remain positive. Despite their recent slump, they have had a magnificent season. Highlights of the League Two play-off 1st leg between Portsmouth and Plymouth at Fratton Park. Three more strong performances is all thats required - I hope they do it.Their first job at Fratton Park will be to silence the home crowd, who will be buzzing for this. If they achieve that, then I fancy an away win. OLLIE PREDICTED: 1-2 - RESULT: 2-2 Also See: FL72 Podcast Burnley ready to spend FL play-offs: Who, when, where?
