Thoughts on flipping sides of the field?

I'm all for it. If it means better reserved seats available for the games, great. Several years ago, i went with a med student who had student tix to a texas game and it was horrible. Just drunk college kids paying minor attention to the game. I get that's what a student section is for but it doesn't need to be between the 30s.

The point BO makes about the sun makes sense. Why has it taken all the coaches this long to figure it out?

Can't BO do whatever he wants with this?

He is afterall BO right.

It's a dumb friggin idea. And the Student Sextuon is actually mad crazy when they aren't trotting an embarrassingly inept product on the field.

I was at the Zou from 08-12. Tail end of the Daniel years and the beginning of the Gabbert era.

You don't know shite if you weren't there for the OU game with College Gameday. Or really, any conference game from that time.

Often, it was the student section making all the noise when the team was down.

This is an idiotic move and reeks of being a control freak.

Month ago, students did such an awesome job recruiting...now students are terrible. I for one like fans that don't show up for losing teams. Put a good product on the field, the team should bring the fans.

They should have done this years ago.

We have one of the smallest capacity stadiums in the league and can't even fill that up. That's why we lost the Orange Bowl invite to Kansas a few years back in the B12, because Mizzou fans don't travel well. Plus, we beat Kansas that year.

Meh. I'd love to see the student section harassing opposing coaches and players.

Come to a game against a lesser non-conference team and at kickoff, see who has more folks in the crowd, the alumni sideline or the student sideline...the students are fickle.

I have no problem with the plan other than the fact it looks like they may put the visiting team's fans in prime seating between the 40-yard lines. I hate that idea. Went to the LSU game last year and our seats were about halfway to the moon. If other conference teams give visiting fans crappy seats I see no reason why we shouldn't do the same.

That would explain it. They should break up the seats in groups of four or eight so they won't dominate one area.

They could also alternate rows with mizzou season ticket holders since they can use the first 25 rows for visiting teams instead of the proposed first 11 rows.
