Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 2451839, member: 527"] 1) CBB season is far too long 2) Only thing that matters is March and the Tournament (literally the regular season and conference tournaments have become an afterthought) 3) No one or two regular season game is important anymore, even long-time rival games. Just have to win enough games overall to make the tournament. We live in a society in all sports where if you didn't win a championship your season was a total failure. That's how things are viewed and in some sports (NFL, NBA) you can get away with that because the popularity across the board in all cities is huge. But when you are on the verge of another year of not making the tournament its understandable that a segment of the fan-base just gives up and goes, don't care anymore. Because that's how the sport is now built. Only 1 month matters and its March. [/QUOTE]
