From where I sat, it looked like the stadium was about 80% empty. This was a bold article to write.

Texas fans. They don't get to see a lot of wins against the old Purple cat U.

Well clearly that was not where I sat.  Looks quite a bit better from that angle.  FWIW, all that white on the right side were seats, not people, so that side was mostly empty.  KSU fans and UT students were representing though.

Yeah, you can't see it but the upper deck is empty to the left, I think most of that to the left is people moving down to the student section.

it was like half full and Edith Royal "gamely braved the elements" from a climate controlled suite.  also Ricky Williams looked like he wanted to die out there.  for Austin it was about as shitty as their weather gets.

we bought upper level tickets for $20 and moved under the overhang right after kickoff, got a whole row that was empty and were nice and dry the whole game.
