Illinois’ student section had a pathetic showing for the Illini’s home game on Saturday against Ohio State.
The Illini lost 60-35 to the Buckeyes for their 20th consecutive Big Ten loss. The students must have known a defeat was coming (or they’re all studying for exams or something), because very few of them showed up for the game.
Here’s how the student section looked 10 minutes before kickoff:

Some students did file in later, but they still were unable to pull off a proper card stunt:

Just a few letters short there, fellas.
As Deadspin points out, though, the Illinois student section generally is on the money with their card stunts:

Saturday just wasn’t their day. Illinois is now 3-7 and 0-6 in conference play. I wouldn’t be too excited about showing up to support them either.
H/T Dr. Saturday
