As a "Rebelalum", and now a teacher at Boone, I had the same thoughts!! Where was everybody???
Boone will always hold my heart!! No matter what!!
I am a life long fan.
I did not see a lot of pep or desire in the team. I am not sure what is going on, but I know they appeared to try and many of the guys looked heartbroken and frustrated as the game progressed.
Time will tell.
As far as a wreck on the interstate keeping fans away, I was late to the game because of the traffic. However I don't believe for a minute that kept a true fan away.
