Compared to our student body, yes, no doubt.

This is very fixable with games that matter. SMU has had over 2/3 of their entire student body at the last two games. If UNT did that you'd sell out the stadium. Do you think SMU just has sports crazy students? Generating that excitement will be harder without marquee opponents but with winning and the right promotion you can get much, much farther down the line and mostly fill the TCU stadium

I'd take UNT over Houston with their pathetic offense right now.

I’ve been beating this drum in other posts, but the bottom line is that the culture and identity of this university does not attract sports fans. Those students turn into alumni that still don’t like sports, no matter how much winning is going on. You would think that the administration would be interested in why our alumni are less engaged and less likely to donate compared to other schools of our size, but the answers likely won’t be pretty and go far beyond just wins and losses.

Syracuse/UNLV is an interesting one to track, see how UNLV does in week 2 of their new QB replacing the quitter
