Photo: Embarrassing crowd for Missouri-Kentucky game
Not many fans were at Faurot Field to see the opening kickoff in Saturday’s SEC East matchup between Kentucky and Mizzou.
Views from the press box showed a sparse crowd with only minutes to go before the start of the game:

On the heels of a disappointing loss to Middle Tennessee last week, it’s not surprising that the 2-5 Tigers aren’t drawing much of a crowd.
A win against the Wildcats will do a lot to help attendance in the coming weeks, though.
