My point was simply that the majority of CFB programs have bandwagon fanbases and I specifically mentioned UCLA as a ****ty (along with Cal and Stanford). Point being, there is really no evidence that Big 12 programs support their football notably more than Pac 12. The ratings and attendance show that
There are a million pictures of an empty KU stadium. I grabbed the first one I came across.
If you have a packed house in a game that is irrelevant to the college football landscape why is it important how many people were there in person?
That picture is not from last year, it is from 2019. Got to the link below to see the stadium at kickoff.
I know this is hard for you but context is important - stands are empty at the end of blowout games when the home team is on the losing end. Look at Phoenix in final game of the NBA playoffs this year - that was pretty empty at the end. That picture was cherry picked.
Huh? The picture I was responding to was between KU and TCU from last year when both were undefeated (and playing on FS1 btw).That picture is not from last year, it is from 2019. Got to the link below to see the stadium at kickoff.

Try to be honest.
Attendance for this game was 42,000, how far off of the KU attendance was that?
No evidence? SIAP, but this article does a pretty good job breaking it down:

1. B&G is lost in this discussion, so disregarding what he’s saying right now is advised
Haha. My whole point was that using a picture of a Kansas (KANSAS) home game, is not proof that the Big XII doesn’t support footballanyone else starting to think that perhaps ITB and some of our visitors are actively rooting for the demise of the pac?
i dunno. it is subtle. but, i do detect a certain nuanced pov being forwarded.
2. Yep. My bad. Just a bad Kansas year.
Explain. Their attendance is notoriously bad. Their 5 year average is 45% capacity.
Because they are no longer in the Pac-12 and have no impact on the current media negotiations. They also got an invite to the big boy table despite horrible attendance, which is a pretty strong counterpoint to the whole “attendance matters” argument going on
Yes, they are
Don’t go all hokie on me.
As he said, they were invited to the Show, so who cares? They are an outlier; a program with a national brand that has a mediocre fan base (their stadium also has a 92k capacity so their average attendance is probably on par or more than most Big 12, and it’s also an hour or more from their campus).
Nobody made that argument. Literally.
Nice reference there good sir. And that's fair, but if you looked at their average attendance numbers vs their student body size, it still comes out rather poorly.
