It was a great idea, but an unrealized idea. I'm not sure how having the opposing team coming out from under the student section will affect the section. Maybe it will keep people motivated to stay so that they can heckle the opposing team as they run out of and back into the tunnel. It will be interesting to say the least. But for now, I'm not sure what to do.
Good point Ref. Not sure how much the other team coming out from under the student section will help, but it can't hurt.

We could also lower the student tickets total, but this really wouldn't fix the problem. It would just create less empty seats in the 4th quarter
