Oso planning to go pro
The crowd instinctively knows the team isn't that good.
Then they should lose their seats.
Forget the student section, the crowd was pathetic tonight. I couldn’t believe the lack of enthusiasm. Asses were in seats all but a couple possessions. We’d pull within a bucket and the sound of shoes squeaking on offense was deafening. A friend said ‘[the team] is giving us nothing’ to which I replied ‘what are we [the fans] giving them?’ Unusual and very disappointing.
Why is this surprising Marquette has very little fan support from the students.
This is exactly what happens when you have a Tuesday night game, have had a mediocre team since you've been a freshman, and have zero faith in the head coach.
It was a top 15 team against a top 20 Marquette team. If that’s not enough, time to shrink the section and make money off those seats.
Shoutout to the students who actually did show up and got Creighton to force up shots a couple times with the fake shot clock countdown.
Back when I was in school we walked two miles uphill though the snow to every game at the Bradley Center!
Barefoot too!But we saw the national champions. And, there were only 10,400 seats total.
I'm not gonna get on the crowd for last night. It's hard to keep energy in the building when the home side is putting on a masonry clinic.
Make money off of what seats? It's not like we have a lower bowls sold out to season tickets holder. We still had about 1,900 students at the game.
It's been a weird vibe lately with the students. What's going on there? Is there resentment because of the transfers and Ed?
Student sections have been hot and warm throughout the years. A lot depends on the fan captains which don't seem to happen anymore with the bow tie seating. The DJs, Jump Around Guy, Shake Shack and the promotions are the only time there appears to be any charge of energy. The students are looking to be led versus bringing some spontaneity.The exception this year has been the band and the front row crew behind the band basket. I have seen years where the students boycotted the team and were cold towards Buzz (alleged sexual assault teams), but when the students are booing the coach, not standing for the fight song, putting up signs of lack of support for the coach, something isn't right. We joke about us Vesties being a get off my lawn crew, but at the the BC, the students were the show. At FF, it seems the students are looking for game operations to orchestrate something for them. I see little to no originality as they just seem to show up to be entertained. It's been a weird vibe lately with the students. What's going on there?
