Attendance Last Night 

Growing up with the Tigers in the 70's, 80's and 90's I remember some incredible games down in Norman.  In fact, there was a time when I hated the Sooners much more than I did the Jayhawks (and that's saying something.)  I was curious about the attendance for the game.  Was it the result of a bad season, a strange start time, general apathy or just the wake left by poor coaching from an ex Dukie (we understand, believe me.)

Curious to hear your thoughts because it seemed weird to play in Lloyd Noble in front of so few.

Re: Attendance Last Night 

Attendance at the games is very poor, but last night can be attributed to the 6 o'clock start time. It's hard for a lot of people to get off work and still make it to the game at a decent time. Like I say, attendance is bad this year, but we had a pretty decent crowd for ISU on Saturday and if the game had been at 7 or 8, I think the turnout would have been better. In no way am I saying that we fill the arena though. Just would have been better than last nights attendance.

Berry Tramel puts it well in stating that "they" really don't care about fan attendance.
