$140 for season tickets isn't the problem ... student growth from out-of-state kids who didn't grow up X fans is one factor ... a better, more individualized experience at home with 3 tvs, better food, cheaper drinks, etc. is another ... athletic depts nickle and diming people for everything is another ... games that last 3 1/2 hrs so cbs can get their commercials in is another ...

all adds up to declining attendance ...

The first Athletic Department that thinks it's smart to run the tailgating experience at a loss, and incentivize people to get their arse to the stadium will be the first AD to set the standard.
