The Bobcats football team is hoping to bounce back soon from last week's loss to the University of Louisiana-Monroe. Losing the HOME game to U-L-M was disappointing enough, but another disheartening factor was attendance, or rather, the lack of it. Bobcat Update's Breann Barrow has the story.

The football team is now 1-and-1 in the Sun Belt Conference, 2-and-4 overall.  The team seems to be making progress under head coach Jake Spavital, but the Bobcats are still lacking support on game day. Fans just aren't showing up in sufficient numbers. Some students say better promotions would help.

Students say they love the game-day experience. Even when the Bobcats fail to win every time out, it's important to have an energetic student section.
SB
A few students suggest having pep-rallies in the quad during the week prior to home games.
SB
Another suggestion: having giveaways of Bobcat-related merchandise to encourage more student attendance.
SB
Some say lowering the cost of food and drinks would attract more fans.

Next up for the football team will be Arkansas State on October 26th in Arkansas. For Bobcat Update, I'm Breann Barrow.
