Message: [QUOTE="DPCuse, post: 33467, member: 1309"] I wonder if the lack of interest in football is based on the fact that SU is the only major football team within probably 4-5 hours. There aren't any natural rivalries that get people interested in college football. You know, to be bred to hate your rival and root for your home team. There are plenty of NFL fans, basketball fans and baseball fans. So I don't think it is that we don't have sports fans here or do enough for them. People are busy with family life all across the country so it can't be that. The economy sucks all over so I don't buy that. We've been more successful lately so that doesn't seem to be it. I don't buy the nice fall weather and people hate to be inside because the weather sucked Saturday yet we only drew 41K. Maybe IMG can figure out a way to create interest or find a price where people would be interested in coming. [/QUOTE]
