Re: 2014-2015 College Football Thread: A New Era Begins..
There's almost no crossover between sporting rivalries. If they were, OSU would be a far bigger game in hockey, but WRT the B1G, it's 4th. And MAC schools in state I think are more interesting. Like if you played Western Michigan vs. Kent State- I bet more are interested in KSU.
Still, I'm sure the reported numbers will be higher than 100k- the game against Deleware a few years ago was empty, and still managed 100k.
Huh. I guess it's just the hockey connection, but I view Miami as relatively interesting, as MAC opponents go. But I suppose the overwhelming factor is the disappointment of last weekend. And the hockey community just isn't big enough to overcome something like that -- even at Michigan.
As I'm often (and recently) reminded, I'm not your typical Football poster. But I do care and wouldn't revel. My choice would be for all BT teams to play in front of full stadiums all season long.
Anyhow, have a great time at the game.
Amen.
