Wouldn't be surprised if Colorado and AZ school numbers go up with a move to the big 12. Newness can breed more interest/excitement
ISU viewer increase
- Thread starter OPButtrey
- Start date
Their numbers will increase because big 12 teams fans watch more than PAC 12 fans.
I grew up in Sioux City and have been going to ISU games since the mid-80s. I was one of two ISU fans in a sea of Iowa and Nebraska fans growing up. You couldn't buy ISU gear. ISU was NEVER on TV.
Fast forward to now. I don't know if you've noticed but the ISU fanbase is young. There are kids everywhere. I'm talking infants to middle school to high school age. Pollard and the athletic department have been fantastic getting the family involved. Now look at the Iowa fan base and Nebraska fan base. Old. So...old. When it comes to TV execs and conference commissioners, it goes noticed. Keep bringing your kids to tailgate tours and games. Bring your grandkids. Things are looking bright, I promise you.

Vanderbilt road games would have to have consisted of fans in attendance closing one eye or holding their hand over the Vandy players in order to achieve that low number...
I believe it.
