It's hard to be energized when your getting your ass kicked by 30 points in the first half!

I would argue that the crowd was sitting on their rumps on the first defensive possession. At which point we were not getting our asses kicked.

Not in my section, everyone was on their feet, especially on 3rd down.

I will say though, we haven't had a close home game in 2 years.

Big part of the problem IMO. The home games are rarely nail biters...I can't remember one in the recent past where I was really on the edge of my seat into the 4th Q.
