Yes, yes. You can point to the BYU/UCF game as the opposite but UCF has never really been in a regional conference before. They don’t have that history. BYU was in the mountain west but always saw themselves as better than. So again— it’s different for everyone.

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

I think the stadium attendance discussion is super fascinating because it’s really nuanced and layered. Like Bama/Texas? Probably never gonna have to worry about it.

But Arizona State? Like yeah man, I don’t think a game against TCU or whoever will do much to excite the base.

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

I know people think “wow new teams, how exciting!” But in reality, regionality made the sport. It is why the sport was as popular as it’s been.

This Houston/Utah game, would be fun in week 2 but now it’s a conference game and Eccles is loud but… idk man. Feels flatter

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

@panamanole Worth it!!! It’s great man

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

And every spot is different, right? Like Oregon? Football culture so yeah you may show up for the Nebraska game because “oh man that’s cool we play them now” but some day, you will look back and wish you were playing Utah instead of Illinois.

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

Again— people in Dallas dont care about a game against Cal. No matter how good they are, there zero in common from a school/sports standpoint, they’re in a conference that makes zero sense for them to be in together. Same reason why the Stanford game had like 12 people last night

[Dan Wolken @DanWolken]

Why is there nobody at the SMU-Cal game? Attendance looks horrific. You’re a top-25 team!

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

@Asharp52 Oh, great school! Wouldn’t blame anyone for going there for the degree

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

Again— what is the point of Stanford fans (fairly, they don’t have a huge base that shows up) caring or investing in a game against NC State? A school with zero in common and on the other side of the country

[Noah Fleischman @fleischman_noah]

The crowd at kickoff for NC State at Stanford.

@panamanole It’s solostove. Had it for 5 years, was a wedding gift but if it ever goes in biting the bullet and going with the same one.

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

@panamanole Love it. Completely smokeless. Wife hates fired because of smoke but will sit here with me on this one.

As long as you don’t have it or the wood wet, it works perfectly.

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

The boys love it out here

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

I’ve decided to adopt New Mexico as my only other team to give a shit about this year.

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

Shit— prayers to everyone in Tally and at FAMU.

[Madison Social @MadisonSocial]

Today at the tuck was up there

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

Cool moment for UCF, neither one of these staffs deserve a W though 😭

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

It’s one bad year but probably time to at the very least ask questions about Dan Lanning

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

Even the players, they also had dumbassery in this.

[Ira Schoffel @IraSchoffel]

Crazy coaching decisions, clueless refs and oblivious commentators … this BYU-UCF game has it all!!!

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

This is a mess. Dumbassery from coaches, players and officials lol

[Mike Settle Jr @settleml92]

BYU has always been a dirty football team and they’ve gotten away with it for a long time. Hope the unsportsmanlike costs them
