Fox Sports 1 (at least its not ESPN)

Unpopular opinion: the stadium is morgue-ish for most games. Michigan, obviously not, but many of the rest of the games...lots of the tea and crumpet set sitting on their hands, and students not paying any attention to the game.

Just sayin': Except for the seat licenses, football in Da Shoe is somewhat evolving into the same situation as basketball in the Schott.
1. The ticket prices keep going up.
2. They are pricing out the average fan and most students.
3. I'm guessing at this one; but I'll say that with the big money and fancy cars the players are getting now, they do not connect/interact with the students like they did when I was a student. The students don't look at the football players as being "one of us" like they did years ago.
4. The best seats go to season ticket holders that are donors, facility, and others with "connections".
5. Overall most of the fans in above category (#4) are older and do "sit on their hands" sometimes.

Haven’t been to a game in a few years now. Used to go every year, but living out of state turns it into a very expensive affair. The cost and availability of decent seats has really made it a difficult proposition.

Son-in-law reps Elijah Craig and made the deal with tOSU last year. Hoping maybe to benefit from that relationship this season :sneaky:
