[French Rage]

I don't know where you guys sit, but until it became obvious that we were going to get drubbed (so sometime just after half) the stadium sounded plenty loud to me. It was also pretty full, better than I expected with a 7:30 kickoff.

I agree, I thought the crowd was good at the start, especially given the time.  The student section was full and there holes in the crowd were few and far between.  Once it became clear in the second half that we were going to come back it definitely started to clear out.
