Traditionally speaking, the University of Arizona has a raucous home crowd. The student section — dubbed the ZonaZoo — can be particularly rowdy.
When looking at today’s contest between Southern Cal and Arizona, it appears as if the student section — and the rest of the fan base — forgot there was a game on Saturday.

Suffice it to say, but there’s not a whole lot of fan support for Rich Rodriguez and the Wildcats. It doesn’t help that Arizona is sitting at 2-4 overall. With 7:30 remaining in the third quarter, USC is up by a score of 41-7.
In addition, the insanely-hot temperatures may also have something to do with the porous turnout:
