I would have loved to have gone to the game but unless we play in-state and on a saturday most of us can't make it. That plus there are about a hundred D1-A schools in our state so our fan base is small even by mid-major standards. So other than Alumni and thier families theres no real motivation to become a KSU fan when you have Ohio State so close and the large city of Akron with thier Zips so close by. We have Akron, Toledo, Bowling Green, Ohio State, Ohio U, Miami of Ohio, and to an extent Cincy. So yea our fan base is small but loyal (especially in basketball where we are looking for our 10th straight year with 20+ wins).
Our average home attendance was only ~17,000 last year. Thats up almost 10,000 per game compared to 2005 (thanks to thier $1 Miller Lite drafts promotoion)
