What an absolute disgrace.  Are there even 10,000 butts in seats tonight?

Why would any high school football player with offers to other good programs want to come play in a stadium that is 80% empty -- when the team is ranked?!

Haven't seen it this bad in a while...I don't expect great attendance but this has to be in the low teens. 

I dont know what can be done but it really is sad. Prime time on espn and fans don't show up.

Temple is not a draw.  A crappy local team would have been better.

Yeah, but those 50,000+ empty pewter & red seats look awesome to the national TV audience, don't they.  Really screams, "USF!"

I'm all about an OCS but why the **** would we build one after this season? Complete joke of a program....UCiF passed us and it's a fact now.

Do not care if they were playing Sheboygan Community College.  This attendance -- for a ranked team, no less -- is inexcusable and a total embarrassment to USF.

Absolutely correct

Just because one team is ranked, it doesn't make it high stakes CFB that casual fans would be interested in.

We shouldn't need a draw for 20-25k fans to show up. That's the problem right there.

 

Tampa fans are fickle, you see it in every sport in the area...but this is inexcusable.

Say what??  This is a frigging conference opponent who beat us last year, not an FCS team.  If that's not high enough stakes, then Tampa Bay cannot support an FBS football program.
