USC fans apparently did not want to sit in the heat during their team’s home opener against San Jose State.
Before the game, school officials warned fans about the heat: “High temperatures are expected for this event. The Coliseum seating bowl has very limited shade available.”
The temperature at kickoff was 94 degrees, with a real feel temperature of 104 degrees, according to AccuWeather.
Unfortunately, it appears fans weren’t interested in checking out the game because of the muggy weather, as absolutely nobody showed up.

This is why nobody takes USC’s fanbase seriously . The few that actually care run their mouths on social Media 24/7 but when it comes time to actually physically show up and support the team, the stadium is empty . Embarrassing. The SC fan base isn’t even real, the LA way pic.twitter.com/MrymZ5EyKU

There are literally only 8 college football games today and this is all USC could get to show up to the stadium for the season opener.
Pathetic for a “proud” program that claims 11 national championships… pic.twitter.com/LqgkZmmp0v

Some fans defended USC fans for not wanting to attend the game due to the heat.
