Not sure. What do people in Connecticut do on Saturdays?

We aren't located in the middle of nowhere, close to nothing. Less than a 2 hour drive to New York/Boston/Providence/the ocean.

That is a bad excuse. As someone that used to drive to Uconn games from Central Mass, Uconn is not really close to much.

The real reason nobody shows up, is you are a G5 program with minimal success as of late. Not much you can do about it, other than win a few more games, and generate a following. Even then, the ceiling is low due to location, culture in the northeast, and most importantly, being G5.

LOL. Not surprising you commented here. Less than 2 hours (driving) to New York and Boston isn't close to much? LOL.

UCONN averaged almost 40K from 2005-2010 (after moving to FBS). It wasn't until after Edsall left and UCONN hired a couple idiots that attendance dropped off.

I know you're still experiencing those 5 stages of grief regarding your G4 status and failure to make the Access Bowl. Poor guy.

Ummm, I know that UCONN averaged well from 2005 to 2010. I went to two games in the 2010 season during your run to the Fiesta Bowl. Attendance dropped due to losing and being relegated to G5 status. We agree on these points.

Regarding being close, ok man. If you think the fact that people can drive to Boston or NYC is what is keeping people a way, I am not sure what to tell you. Most people don't wake up on Saturday mornings and say "hey, I want to drive two hours to go to a different city." I used to live in Franklin, Ma as well as Harvard, Ma, and felt like Boston was a lifetime away.

Its G5 and losing bud. You can change the losing part. Do it.

If you thought Harvard, MA was a lifetime away then you must not have had much of a social life.

That's the norm for young adults in the Northeast. Perhaps you're past your prime and not up to date with what young people in this region do today.

Well that is a fact. Wife, children, business, Guard, travel......and all the other BS in life will do that to you.

Getting me to drive to Boston or wherever takes/took planning. I would assume that is your clientele. Middled aged men and their families. Not young millenials.

Hey, I could be wrong.

A key point. The P5 leagues have been around for a while, with the B12 being the youngest (but an iteration of B8 and SWC). We are the only league in growth stage with the right population masses surrounding most of our schools.

Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

But the AAC does have schools that measure up pretty well to Rutgers, Indiana, Purdue, Northwestern, Iowa, IL & MD in terms of name & brand. Even better when measured against the B12 aside from UT & OU. And about the same against the ACC aside from Clemson, FSU & a couple of others. So the AAC isn't expecting B1G $$, just $8M-10M........

Sorry but no AAC school measures up to Iowa. They get 70k when they are 3-9. Bad example. Iowa will take more fans to their mid tier bowl game than every one of USF home games. They bring at least 20,000 fans to bowls. I know, I've been to those bowl games when an unranked Iowa fills a stadium in Texas or Arizona vs an un ranked PAC team. No one in this conference would bring fans like that unless they were undefeated in a big bowl. Last few years certain AAC teams brought less than 100 fans to their bowls.

Which AAC team travels the best?

For bowls? Navy and ECU easily.
Houston brought a huge crowd with them to Dallas vs Penn St a few years ago and vs TCU a decade ago. Memphis supported their hometown Liberty Bowl very well for years too.

Navy has averaged 18000 in bowl ticket sales going to 13 bowl games in the last 14 seasons.
That's allotment of tickets sold through NAAA ticket office, not looking at predominant colors in sections or guessing at who had more people out for the nightlife.

If they would just post the team's records next to their names on the score graphic, that would be nice. They are the only ones who don't do that. It helps the casual viewer who "happens upon" the game.

I'm predicting CBS-SN gets the majority of the AAC media deal. I'm basing this on the way they talk about us. It's very favorable coverage. ESPN ignores or laughs at the P6 stuff. Fox outright acts like the AAC doesn't exist and NBC....I've given up on them as serious players. Outside of Notre Dame football they don't seem to care. I predict Aresco gets a 6 year deal with CBS-SN for 6 years (2020-2026) worth 4.5 million per team per year.

After watching the recording of the ECU/BYU game, I was very impressed with the CBSSN broadcast. The graphics were top notch, the picture was clear, camera work was good and the commentators actually seemed knowledgeable about both teams. The sound quality of the crowd came through nice and clear. Unlike the mickey mouse sports network, they have consistently managed to use 'ECU' in their graphics, rather than E. Carolina, E. Car. or whatever. Same for other schools like S. Florida.

If the money is there, I would be very happy with the quality of their broadcasts. Until now the money has been with ESPN, but I am disgusted with their manipulation of college sports. We have to go with the money, but I hope it is someone else.

My only beef with CBS is that (and I could be missing something) their app game is not so strong. I use Apple TV for sports.

If you open ESPN, there is a college football button that has all their games.

I have 2 CBS apps (CBS and CBS Sports).

CBS - requires some separate subscription than a cable/sat login, and doesn't always have sports (subscribed just for the super bowl last year and didn't find out until after paying that it wasn't included)

CBS Sports - doesn't seem to have a login option and just has a bunch of clips
