From the TV perspective, it seemed to be a large, loud crowd today. This fanbase continues to amaze me at showing up big, being loud and taking one emotional gut punch after another. Not sure many programs would still have the following UT has after so little in return for so long. For all of you that attended today, my hat is off. There's a lot of frustration posting tonight. I get it. At least we have fans that care enough to be upset and don't accept just coming close to winning.

Way too many empty seats. Should of been a near sell out, think it would of changed the outcome honestly. Once Milton kept missing the deep balls, the crowd wasnt that loud anymore. At the start of the game Pitt was beyond rattled. Oh well. I get it. BVS and all

I thought the crowd was great, staying in the game right to the end. The team didn't quit and made some big plays, and there were the expected mistakes. The penalties were brutal, and that 4th and inches call was worse, but there's something to build on. Love to see Bailey get a shot at some point.

It’s hard to judge. The north upper deck was very sparse. It was thicker in the upper deck behind the visitor’s bench, and got better as you go around the south and west. Lower bowl looked full all the way around. But the crowd was working hard all day though. We did our part.

From where I was sitting there were a lot of empty seats in the upper deck. Certainly a bigger crowd than Bowling Green.

I am getting tired. The all day trip and just getting punched in the mouth with bad officiating and crappy calls. Kids played hard but staying home and watching instead just keeps sounding more appealing. Plus all the money you can save. Plus the AD doesn't give a crap about the fans. TV money seems to be enough for them.

Were we watching the same game? About 80,000 but looked less than that. It got loud at times but that upper deck looked empty

Why would we sell out? Haven’t won in years. Winn and it will be full.

Why do u say the AD doesn’t care about fans? Like Heupel he’s been there 6-8 months maybe?
