Where the hell is eveyone.

Neb is ranked 6th in the nation and OU is trying to make the playoffs. And I am guessing there are maybe 100 people attending? 75 parents and 25 journalist?

There might be 10 students there since baseball tickets are basically free. Probably a better place to study than the library. At least quieter anyways.

College Baseball; what a Complete waste of a Universities money and ESPNs broadcast time. Maybe Neb could drop the Baseball program all together and split the Men's scholarships between football and basketball.

Watching this game further, I must admit that ESPN is doing a great job at NOT showing the stands. We are getting a lot of tight shots and field level cameras on the players to avoid showing the empty stands.

There were over 20,000 in attendance for yesterday's Georgia-Georgia Tech game. Don't condemn the sport based on one game.

Also, ESPN most likely would not be showing this if there were hockey playoffs going on right now.

Now, that actually makes since.

I watched the OU - WSU baseball game yesterday. And, it is not like they are using the local announcers. These games have got to cost ESPN something to cover.

I guess it beats reruns of The Strong Man contests. :D
