Surprisingly, Aggies ARE human. When the team is bad, like all others, attendance suffers. Plus, your everyday fan probably didn't know Mizzou was undefeated coming into that game. Like all teams, if we keep winning the fans will come. Example: A&M has broken Midnight Madness attendance records for 2 straight years. Why? Because the b-ball program is on the rise.

I got a great picture of the North endzone with all the empyt seats. Only 71,000 on hand for a 5-1 team playing a 6-0 ranked team. That is a bit rediculous.

Like I said, a 5-1 team that really hadn't proved a lot before beating Mizzou and a lotta people didn't feel that Mizzou had proved much either. 71,000 isn't great but it definitely could've been worse. Hey, we're just a lil' country school in the BCS; give us time.

actually with aTm's schedule they should be "5"-1

but like I always say, a team schedules to suit its needs, not to appease fans ....... so if aTm plays Bethany Lutheran College in the non-conference and its get them ready for league action (see the aTm hoopsters last year), then thats a good schedule for them

I drove down Welborn during the 2nd quarter after my duties at HS in the morning and was shocked to see the empty seats in the top of the Ozone. I think the alumni are trying to send a message to Byrne about Fran and the high ticket prices.

so wouldn't that put the Ags at 1-5-1 as well then??? There one good win being over Mizzou??? Please don't tell me that Army and Kansas were "big wins" for the Ags.
