Top 25 Kansas drew 20K for a stadium that could only fit 18k.
They sold a soccer stadium in Kansas City out for a P4 team to play a 3rd year FCS team.

i don’t feel better
People who are using not having NIL to buy players in football are silly. How long has UH had to fix that… Since UH was accepted to the Big 12 years ago.
All i know is Tillman is not happy and thats why sorry Pez was fired!
yeah…they are renovating their stadium and are playing in a very small stadium this season,
As you always say…dumb comparison, bro!
Kansas draws pretty well.
WVU inflated their numbers. Lots of empties in their stadium.
Wow, for Penn State?

What are you talking about with WVU? The place was packed for kickoff, then a lot of people left after a 2 hour rain delay.

I thought it was bigger.
The stadium’s official capacity is 47,233. A then-record crowd of 51,574 saw the Jayhawks defeat Kansas State 25–18 in 1973.
At the Jayhawks’ November 5, 2005 streak-snapping 40–15 victory over Nebraska, it was announced that that attendance record was broken, with a standing-room-only crowd of 51,750.
On November 18, 2006, a then attendance record of 51,821 fans watched the Jayhawks defeat Kansas State, 39–20. The home attendance average of 44,137 in seven games during the year set a new season record, surpassing the prior season’s record of 43,675 in six contests. Over the last three seasons, stadium attendance has averaged more than 41,000 per game.
On November 1, 2008, the Jayhawks set a new record of 52,230 fans in attendance. The Jayhawks beat Kansas State 52–21 in the renovated stadium
On September 5, 2009, Kansas broke the record again as 52,530 fans watched the Jayhawks defeat Northern Colorado in the opening game of the
I think Kansas suffers the same problem as UH regardless of capacity, where they only get lots of fans to show up when they are good.
So OP or the responses here aren’t totally misguided, but those 18K fans probably show up to games either way
We may not be looking down at anyone after the next home game.

Kansas isn’t playing at their regular home stadium this year; it’s undergoing renovations.
