The "average fan" cannot name half the teams in the MW or the AAC. Not sure why t really matters at this point. Agree to disagree regarding Pumphrey. Neither of us have stats to prove or disprove your point. If you look at the ratings for he SDSU vs Houston game, people clearly watched, and Pumphrey was obviously the showcase. That is why we were ranked in the Top 25 after that win, even though we had three losses.

It will be interesting to see what happens with our TV contracts in 2020. The AAC has more eyeballs competes for time with the B1G, SEC, ACC, and Big 12. Meanwhile, the MW only competes with the PAC. Will be interesting to see how it falls.

it was the pumphrey show at the end because it was a blowout but it was a greg ward, ed oliver , pumprey show when it started (with a mix of how will houston look without herman)

it was the greg ward, ed oliver show in the louisville game but id be very dishonest if i said they were obviously the show case (lamar jackson)

note: houston would have been ranked if we had won, we were ranked higher than you pregame and the favorite

we both know if that game had a different team not houston the rating would have been drastically different

Ummmm, you should watch the game again. The Pumphrey story line was talked about from the beggining. As was the matchup of Nico Siracusa against Ed Oliver.

Regarding Houston being ranked had they won, maybe. Maybe not. That just gives more credence to what I am saying. It was a highly watched game for a number of reasons. Yes, Houston had a lot of publicity and some big wins this year. SDSU had
A conference title and was ranked during the season. The ratings had a lot to do with the time slot as well. Ultimately, Jad it been USC or UCLA on the other side of the field, ratings would have been higher. Had it been Arizona State or TCU, it would have been lower.

you should rewatch the game yourself.. i make houston highlights and most of the audio i used for ed oliver was from that game..

they spent 30 minutes talking about how ed oliver would be a guaranteed top 5 pick...how ed oliver is unstoppable..how sdsu has never seeen a player like ed oliver
how no other freshmen other than jalen hurts affected his team like ed oliver...and on the first drive, how greg ward had an unmatched career, on the offical game preview they were talking about how this is last game of greg ward

and a ton of stuff about the herman lsu/texas drama

again you need to rewatch..after the blowout started in the second quarter it became the pumphrey show ..similar to how in the Louisville game it became the ed oliver show after the first quarter and counting the sacks..that in no shape or form meant we were the obvious showcase

pumphrey was obviously one of the main selling points but dont pretend it was all him

and this is my first time ever hearing that sdsu players name, so he had nothing to do with it

Dang, you got all pissed off at that joke? Yes, Houston would have better ratings vs SDSU in Vegas. Just like ECU would do better on the East Coast vs an East Coast team.

I'm hearing that a group is about to propose tearing down the Q, fixing the (very serious) floodplain issues caused by the Q's parking lots, and building a new 40-50k stadium for an expansion Major League Soccer franchise. SDSU will be allowed to use the stadium rent-free, and the construction money will be 100% non-taxpayer. Only "break" the developers will get is ownsership of the land at below-market-value (but how much below?) and be allowed to put some mixed-use retail/office/condo type stuff around/near the stadium.

Interesting if true.

So SDSU isn't getting its own OCS? They are going to play in a Major League Soccer Stadium? If that's true than San Diego St is bush league. I thought they were going to build their own OCS?

Yep... they came over here to the AAC all hot and heavy saying they were too good for the MWC and they can't even build a stadium? I bet they are the only team in the MWC that doesn't have a stadium. I figured the Chargers leaving San Diego would be huge for them. Chargers leave. SDSU has San Diego to themselves. They build an OCS. They become big time. But this nonsense abut hoping a MLS team builds a stadium for them to play in? Bush League.

Cheers!

I was wrong I should have titled this thread "sleeping giant SDSU about to be put to sleep for good."

Cheers!

Truthfully, this thread was illogical to begin with. Like saying that MLB is killing farm team baseball.

No, San Diego State will not be playing in a Soccer Stadium.

MLS will be playing in San Diego States new football Stadium. More than likely named "Aztec Warrior Stadium".

The Aztec Warrior Stadium will be approx 38,000 to 45,000 and will be on campus. It will be at the Mission Valley site that the Chargers played at which will become what some are calling "SDSU West". There will be classrooms, Dorms, a Stadium, and retail/condos.

There is no way a MLS soccer stadium is built on that site.

Oh you guys are doing well on the field. My point was about the stadium. If you have no place to play in a few years, how can you have a team? If San Diego St bought the Chargers stadium, I stand corrected. I haven't heard that. Any info on the subject would be appreciated.
