Here, Bob and I agree.  I would think it might be less than 5 years of
losing seasons to end that sell out streak.  When you look around college
football, and hear about all the great venues to see games played, there are
a lot of them that don't necessarily feature full stadiums every Saturday.
My brother-in-law, a Mizzou alum, traveled to Mississippi for the game they
played there, and remarked on the things going on around the football game
and all that.  But there may have been more Mizzou fans than home team
fans.  There's the stadium, the atmosphere, the tailgating, the social
environment, and the game.  Winning a lot, and playing well most of the
time, can make all of those things worth enjoying.  Losing at home, often
and badly, not so much.
