When a school is ranked in the Top 25 in the country in Week 13, one would think fans would pack the stadium to watch them play. That wasn't the case on Saturday in one part of Sanford Stadium when the No. 10 Georgia Bulldogs faced the UMass Minutemen.
Georgia entered Saturday’s game as a 42.5-point favorite (ESPN BET) with an 8-2 record. Everyone knows the tremendous success the Bulldogs have had since head coach Kirby Smart took over in 2015, claiming two national titles, two SEC championships, and three College Football Playoff appearances.
However, it seems some in the student section, particularly from Greek life, may be taking that success for granted. Despite reserved seating, their section was noticeably half-empty, as the rest of the stadium packed in during the first quarter.

Other fans on social media shared their reactions, calling out the students for not showing up.
"Typical Greek Life section," one fan said .
"That’s embarrassing," another wrote . Give tickets to fans that want to be there."
"Lotta people at home that would love to use these seats," added a fan . "Use em or lose em."
Reduce the student capacity for cupcake games by 5k and pass tickets out to kids in Rocksprings and Nellie B that couldn’t dream about affording tickets for a game," another said .
"To the people defending the students, this isn’t the first time this has happened," a fan added . "Same thing happened at the Mississippi State game. Just own up to it."
"Then give them to someone who will show up," another fan wrote . "Idc when or who it is, if you’re too lazy to show up you shouldn’t get the tickets."
