I would much rather watch a bball game between two highly ranked teams in a season that 'doesnt mean anything', than watch 80% of the games the football teams play in a season that 'matters'. Who cares if all the games 'count' if they are playing Louisiana Monroe, or somebody like that. I'd much rather see someone like UT play Tennessee or Michigan or some other BCS conference team knowing that even if they lose they will make the playoffs, than watch them play teams like North Texas so they make sure they don't lose in order to get into a fraud of a playoff system like the BCS
I wouldn't care to comment on what you think. However, I am really curious if you got better explanations on the low interest on NCAA basketball this early in the season?

I think my model is pretty good, and you did nothing to disprove it?
