Yeah - no support for the program at all.
If the Beakers and the newly emboldened K-State fans want to take shots at the 'fake titan' label they claim is being applied to MU by its fans - fine, whatever. If they want to say the program is historically mediocre - fine. Those are legitimate points that can at least be discussed.
But seriously - the 'haha, MU can't even get fans to come out' argument is a non-starter. The atmosphere in Columbia for MU football is second to none, including Arrowhead.

That really is an impressive number, especially when you consider that it's not a marquis game, and its not inflated by a bunch of visiting fans packing the stadium.
As an aside, aTm announced its move to the SEC 10 days after it announced that it was exploring its options. Mizzou announced its intent to explore 9 days ago. I've heard a little speculation that the reason we weren't willing to adjust our start time in order to be. Televised because we may have announcement planned.
