The overwhelming contingent of students at the Nevada game was unlike anything I've witnessed at Memorial in quite some time. You'd like to see at least a core of students have a little more resilience (their undergraduate educations only last so long, and for better or worse this Cal program is what they've got), but faceplanting in that game and then TCU really crushed hopes of any follow through on that momentum. Cal has traditionally done well in the early season non-conference games, which can help lift attendance a bit through mid season. But to perform so miserably so early in the schedule given our generally poor recent track record, it's hard to recover from. Should get a decent crowd at SC, but I'm gonna guess the stadium will still only be maybe 2/3 filled.
