Not a sellout
The Big 12 title game is not going to be a sellout. We’re 15 minutes before kickoff, and the corners of the Alamodome basically empty. Not big chunks; maybe 2,000 people shy of capacity. But still, the ‘Dome seats about 65,000, some 13,000 less than Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, which always sells out the Big 12 title game unless Colorado is involved.
OU has about a 2-to-1 edge in the Alamodome crowd, by most estimates, although the Riverwalk edge seems to be about 3-to-1. San Antonio quickly will become a favorite of OU fans as far as Big 12 title venues. Easy drive or easy flight, lots to do, good weather. And the North team is a long way from home.
