UTEP beats Tulane, 3 big games next

[MinerMan2010]

Only 7700 in attendance last night. Tulane sucks so bad at both football and basketball, they don't bring anything to the table. Empty arenas, bad teams, no national name. What makes it even worse is that UTEP lost to them in football. Pathetic.

Local TV for Saturdays game. Next Wednesday's game vs Houston is on CBS College Sports and Saturday's game vs Tulsa is on ESPN2. I know TU is an 8PM start, pretty sure UH game is too. How will the games being on TV affect our attendance. I say a shade above 8,000 for Houston and depending on how they play, aka if they win, the Tulsa game has a good shot at over 10,000.

MinerMan,

Utep fans have been raised to follow players who give everything they have to the team... what Barbie has brought us is selfish basketball... street ball... "Meeee" basketball.

It won't play in Peoria... and it certainly won't play in El Paso.

El Pasoans will spend their hard earned money where they get something of value back...

This ain't it...

Only way they get +10K or more is if they drop ticket prices significantly... like they did last year to attract CBI attendance.

Utep fans, by and large, are too smart for that ol' trick...

Realm...
