If the student section isn't at least 75% full for the Florida game Saturday, the athletic department needs to start selling sections of student seats to the general public. Might as well make a little money on the seats instead of being wasted. Even for horrible games, every other section has at least a few people in them. Students have no excuse for missing this game.

Taken away and given to whom? The rest of the joint is empty too.

Convert those empty student seats to empty old people seats.

LSU students can't support athletics and act mature.

Their section in TS should be taken away too. They care more for their profane chants, social atmosphere and leaving early to go to drink alcohol at a bar then supporting LSU athletics.

We've sucked for most of the last 20 years and still, before they moved it to behind the goal, the students showed up. They've been given the worst 100 level seats in the building. The students wants to feel like they are important. Sitting them in obstructed view seating is pathetic.

They already moved the student section from a section with actual seats. People refuse to sit in the new student section for this reason.

I'll be there, but I'll be doing Bengal Brass. We substitute for the student section more often than not.

They need to make every game a priority point game again, people will show up, at least for the beginning...

So give it to the general public when the rest of the pmac is empty????

How about start winning big games and maybe, just maybe the pmac (including the student section) would start filling up.

Winning brings fans. I've been to a few games this year, but obviously if we put together some wins there will be more fans.

Yes I know, people should support the team no matter what. But still. Just give it time. Coach JJ is turning the program around

It's gonna be a blow out just like in 2011. Florida's offense is just a worse version of ours

It would have helped if LSU could have beaten a bad Auburn team.

The seats will still be empty regardless.

What is the current student section capacity? Regardless, I think filling it to 75% is a very optimistic goal given what I've seen the past 12 years.

Plus, school has been out of session since early December, before that was finals week, dead week, and Thanksgiving. They'll show up when the semester starts when they're actually in Baton Rouge instead of Texas.
