Message: [QUOTE="FrancoPizza, post: 3108082, member: 5195"] did you ask if they were coming back for western mich? That’s a better measuring stick. In the span of a few plays we went from a possible 17-13 to 24-6. Absolutely crushing and the stadium emptied pretty quickly at that point. I was at Italian fest earlier today and ran into several “casuals” who were at the game. While I was waiting for my kids to take a picture with Otto I struck up a few conversations and the general sentiment is same old Syracuse is back. They loved the pregaming but they came for the opponent. Last season did a lot to reignite interest from the casuals but the last 2 weeks has all but erased those gains. There’ll be 42k announced next week and maybe 30 actually in the seats. I’m as disappointed as anyone because we need those casuals and bandwagons to fill the place. [/QUOTE]
