Quote from: timhawk on June 05, 2013, 09:14:27 PMI go to a few KU games every year and honestly I would say at kickoff the stadium is anywhere from 70-80% full. the problem is that at half time I'd say 30% of them leave even if we are up. is sad really because KU fans don't really support the football team like they should. I mean if I was a player and saw a stadium 80% full and then come out after half and it's 50% full I'd be pretty upset. I've been to a few games at Snyder stadium myself and it's a great atmosphere just like Allen Fieldhouse is during basketball. FWIW that ok. state game in lawrence this year was in CRAPPY weather so that's why the attendance was down for that game.Where do you live in relation to Lawrentucky, Tim?

What would you rather do? Watch a losing football team or cruise on down to the hawk, crush some brews, and slam some fillies? I know what I would do.

May have already been posted somewhere, but I did not realize that Virginia Tech (you know, the team that KU beat in the 2008 Orange Bowl, defining KU as an elite program with a win that surpasses any and all football accomplishments ever made by K-State) only has a BCS winning percentage of 16.7 % (1 out of 6).

Virginia Tech just went through a DoD that makes K-State's look like chump change. Plus, their BCS Bowl losses were against elite teams like Kansas, Stanford, and Michigan.
Holy crap some of our fans will never recover from KU's orange bowl.

VaTech lost consecutive Orange Bowls to KU and Cincinnati!
Quote from: jtksu on June 06, 2013, 02:05:48 PMVaTech lost consecutive Orange Bowls to KU and Cincinnati! False. Virginia Tech beat Cincinnati the year after they lost to KU.
We have no room to talk when it comes to bowl games. They're Snyder's kryptonite.
At one point the ACC was 2-13 in BCS bowls. Their wins were over Virginia Tech(before they joined) and Cincinnati. I think they've picked up one win since then.
