Re: Northwest @ Grand Valley
Ya know, I graduated 6 years ago and still go to every football game I can- even when I lived 4 hours away. I had to miss this weekend's game because of a prior commitment, and I was really bummed to have to watch at home. So some of us, I'm sure, had legit excuses but WOW i was also stunned to see so few people there. Students are whatever- let's face it, most of them don't care about d2 football at all. When I was a student, the only time we filled the student section for playoffs was when everyone had a chance to be on ESPN or ESPN2 (ESPN3 has zero appeal as it's not on actual TV). But I could not believe the regular home side was so empty!! MSU is crap, UM wasn't playing anybody good, it was an afternoon game, and it was against freakin Northwest! Where was everybody at?? I would've killed to be there.
On a side note, who cares if "most" Ferris students stay for the whole game up in Big Rapids. They get about 5% the amount of students at the games that GV does...
