I was not able to be there but it sounded very loud on the radio and TV as I listened in the car when I was traveling and watched the end at home.
Attendance was 51K. I agree that it should have been full. I think there are several factors involved here. Ticket prices, Economics, Big Screen TV’s, people staying in the Junction to tailgate during the game. There seems to be 10-15K or more on campus for games that do not go in to the game.
All that said, Leach knows that is not worth talking about. If we keep winning the crowds will be bigger.

Interesting that we had a bigger crowd for Memphis than we did A&M. Of course I know that was the first game of the year on a holiday weekend and it was easy for people to come. Ticket prices were lower as well.

Regardless we needed state fans in the stands. It was the most pathetic showing I’ve seen at an SEC game (not against Vandy) since at least 2008

Don’t think there was 51k. Also tailgating was way down so not 15k outside the stadium. Tickets were still plentiful through the ticket office last weekand they were asking $100 for lowers through the ticket office. Same for this week. I understand they think they have to maintain the sale price in line with what season ticket holders are paying but they should drop prices across the board and fill it up. They’ve also jacked up concession prices again.
