I can understand why it has happened. It was significantly colder than the first 3 home games, it was early, and KU was favored by about 20. And before the last two home games, it had been about 3 years since there was a close game. In fact, out of KU's last 9 home games, 8 have been before noon. Week after week, that takes a toll on tailgaters. KU plays OU at either 2:30 or 7 in 2 weeks. If the same problem occurs then, it will be embarrassing. Bottom line, though, is that there's just not the passion behind KU football like there is in other places.
