Who’s home game is this?
Kansas gave up a home game to play Missouri at Arrowhead Stadium.
So, you’d think the Jayhawks would have the fan advantage.
But will they?
Less than half an hour before kickoff, the Arrowhead stands are tinted more black and gold than blue and crimson. Perhaps all the Jayhawk fans are still out in the parking lots tailgating, but if the Tigers end up having the advantage, that would be a serious knock against Kansas.
Athletic director Lew Perkins decided to move the game, presumably thinking that his Jayhawks would still have a home-field advantage.
Thing is, the Jayhawks have struggled to fill the stadium in Lawrence. But if the Kansas fans can’t get excited for this game — and can’t show it by buying tickets — that would be a sad state of affairs for the Jayhawks. If Kansas can’t look like a football school now, when will it ever look like one?
