What's the over/under on the number of NU fans in attendance for that game?  I have a feeling the stadium might look like it did for the 1996 KSU v. NU game with a smattering of red everywhere.  Also, when was the last time KSU sold out a home game?

OU 04?

I'm guessing 8000 in red.

Well they are restoring the order after all ... or at least playing like they are going to against teams they think they can beat.

Against teams they don't think they can beat they're restoring the commitment to keeping it close.

I think it might have been the NU game in 04 (which was a week after the OU game).  And I agree on the 8K prediction.  It might even be closer to 9K.

As long as Tim Weiser insists on having 97% of the regular season ticket seats in the stadium (non student/faculty seats) priced at some of the highest levels in the Big 12, with approx. 50-60% of that 97% availabe to the general public requiring an extra donation.   Plus charging the same price for individual game tickets whether you sit in the endzone, or up on the far corners of the upper deck.   

Then KSU is never going to move past that 45-46K core (give or take a few thousand depending on the game).   So, if you take into account they'll try to jam 52-53,000 in there for a game like Nebraska, that leaves about 6-7-8,000 seats available for the Cornholes if the fringe fans don't think KSU is going to have a good season.   They're not willing to plunk down $70 bucks a pop to be sent off to the neither regions of the stadium, and they're not going to plunk down $325 a pop for season tickets.
