I think with the nickname gone and no longer in the wcha with old time rivals and those said old time rivals having a down years??? The issue is the students are not into it these past few years and the regular fans that go just go because it's a social event. Road fans know how to cheer. But the atmosphere really took a dive with the nickname gone and then once we got the new one it is just meh.
Really interesting when you remind yourself who has won the natty the last four years ; duluth, denver, und and providence
# Blue chippas dont win natties on their own (/s)
