National coverage of Cuse

[kirbivore]

There's been some prior mentions that the SU game is getting very little coverage nationally. I think that most talking heads think the 8/9 game is a coin flip who will lose the #1 seed in the 2nd round, so why bother talking about it. Last time SU was in the 8/9 game was 20 years ago, which was a lifetime ago in terms of media outlets and social media.

Although Bilas said if we win, we'll be a tough opponent for Gonzaga.

How much coverage u want? its two relatively unimportant teams playing one another - if we win, Cuse/Gonzaga will get all the coverage u need - ilit will be as big a 2nd round match u can get

 

[GooseMutt]

We normally get more coverage but the Narrative that we don’t belong is absent this year.

8/9 games dont usually get much hype. first weekend is all about upsets and theres no upsets in that game. cuse-gonzaga will be a big time 2nd round matchup that gets alot of buzz.

 

[DeGrozz]

There's no really great story to come out of this game -- Neither team is particularly interesting this year, there's not an extremely intriguing player in the game, and no one would be particularly surprised if either team wins.

1,600 losses dealt out between two coaches in the second round will get people talking though.

Just the way I like it. Fly under the radar.

It's just not the same without Gottleib crying we don't belong in the dance.

As long as we're not a Boeing 737 Max8.

He tried once via tweet in the lead up, but then gave up quickly since basically every bracket expert had us on the 8/9 line.

8/9 is the game where media dies.

Clay Travis called us great this morning and said he can see us knocking off Zaga, FWIW

Well one part of that sentence is completely wrong

Were a 8 seed that lost 13 games how much should we get?
