But Fordham has the mojo now, and Dayton looked disinterested vs. St. Joe’s last night. I think Dayton has the better club. We’ll see if it shows up tomorrow. Dayton could lose to Fordham if it brings the same effort, or lack thereof, as last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you are saying, but it depends how loose of a definition of "fan" you use. Most people I attended SLU with are casual fans at best. They normally don't pay any attention until we show up in the AP Top 25 or get to the conference championships game. Then they post tons of stuff about the Billikens and selfies decked out in Billiken Gear. I am sure Fordham has scores of thousands of those type of fans still living in Gotham.

courtside Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 3 hours ago, Bay Area Billiken said: A Fordham booster told me at least 5,000 Fordham fans were there last night. I thought he was being conservative, estimated 6,000 there myself. But if you think of the lower bowl as a rectangle curved at the edges, only the LaSalle end zone was mostly sparse. So 5/6 of the lower bowl was filled. That attendance figure of 8,500+ is in the ballpark, and 90% were Fordham fans during the Fordham game. The Fordham students were there em masse. They took the Metro North from Fordham in The Bronx to Grand Central, then transferred to the 4 NYC Subway to Barclays center in Brooklyn. They can also take the 4, B, or D without having to transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actual Billiken fans remember being at the old Arena when they started taking down the SLU tarps that blocked off the high ends of the upper deck. Spoonball was a thing.......It's been a while but it can be again.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a large part of way I don’t watch the PAC I don’t know why but I’ve always been drawn to Pac12 schools and sports. In fact I only looked at Pac12 schools for grad school before realizing what an incredible waste of money it would be. Not sure if it’s the educational pedigree, west coast vibe, the irrational and ungrounded anger I have towards the perceived slight the Pac12 receives compared to other P5 conferences, or what. But I do know that I love Bill Walton. And not because he’s a phenomenal color man. He’s horrible. It’s because he’s so bad he’s good. His exchanges are so incredibly awkward they’re hilarious. Plus I love the Grateful Dead… brianstl and Bay Area Billiken like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schasz Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Anyone know if CBSSN streams on anyplace like Prime? The cable company we have does not have CBSSN. I do have a stick so I could stream if there is anyone who picks up that network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
