texas inviting a lot of empty seats

[spitfyr36]

Their stadium looks dead... is this the usual?

It's the state of Texas. Yes, all their MBB programs have horrible support.

Verrrrry normal.
This is a pretty good crowd by Texas standards.

I'm really tired seeing these empty seats in Big 12 arenas. Looks bad. TT, OU, and now Texas. Seriously, you can't fill up your lower level seats at least?

Bad for the conference IMO.

Pretty much. Even when they were a top ten team you could buy tickets the day of the game. This is a little worse than normal though, especially since the game is on ESPN3. And why in the hell is this game on the tres? You're ranked #8 and Texas isn't bad this year, couldn't they at least put it on the might LHN? Afterall, ESPN spent all that money on the LHN, you would think they would actually show something decent on it. At least the bar I'm at is streaming the game and can put it on the TV's.

With as many fans as they put in their football stadiums, it's pathetic how awful their basketball crowds are.

Its somewhat of a rotation and games are set before the season. No one thought UT would Beas good, same goes for ISU c

NBA basketball seems to have a very detrimental effect on college basketball. At least it seems to be the case for Texas, Baylor, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State.

The Spurs are at least 60 minutes away from here, 90 minutes from my side of town, and that's on a good day.

Texas order of priority:

1. Football in the Fall
2. National Signing Day for Football
3. Spring Football
