No one else cares.
I actually made the drive down to see the game last night. Was a great game to watch. The officiating was kinda rough at several points in the game, but i think it went both ways. UIC was just a 2 man show though. Mayo and the tall white guy were their offense the whole night. There was a pretty big crowd, but that damn town needs to start supporting that school. It is rediculas how small the crowds are some times. I can remember back in the day, when i was a student, there would only be around one or two thousand a game. For two cities with about 120,000 in population, they do not draw at all.
It was nice to get some fried cheese balls from the pub II. Damn i miss the pub II.
Oh yeah, they had the quick change artists there for half time. It was pretty crazy.
In response to you question though, no one will care about this team until they win an NCAA game, or beat U of I. My real hope is that they get matched up against Davidson in the bracketbuster game so we can get some national TV. That would get some people to notice.
