Correct. The idea that K-State is missing a bunch of players and we're not is false. Plus our best player opted out and the line moved even further in K-State's favor to -7 and moneyline -267. It's clear what the experts think, so now we're about to find out who's right on the field.
Nobody outside of the hardcore fans cared about this football season following the 4-game losing streak. The attitude was "same old Rutgers" and the casuals checked out. As you noted, attendance (which wasn't great to begin with) plummeted for the Minnesota and Illinois games.
I also don't...
Line has moved in K State's favor to -7 following the Monangai opt-out. Seems logical that a couple more Rutgers players will opt out as well which I'm sure is also impacting the spread.

The Rutgers ticket office could screw up a cup of coffee. They are incompetent fools. I really hope the new athletic director fires everyone in the ticket office and the department as a whole for that matter. RU Athletics needs a fresh start.
That's an oversimplification and there will be a lot more Princeton alums in attendance than you think. Either way, it's great to see fan enthusiasm for the basketball program. Way ahead of the football program, which basically has to beg fans to show up for home games.
A poster in another thread (link below) said the ticket office was waiting until bowl ticket seats were allocated to process these and that they hoped to be done by 12/20. It's no wonder they finished early since hardly any RU fans are travelling to the "Rate Bowl" the day after Christmas...
