Sorry to beat this dead horse one more time, but I can’t help thinking that our game tonight should be on ESPN tonight and not on the Duece. Instead of showing the #11-12 ranked teams battling it out they chose to go with #13 Arizona vs. unranked USC. Sure, they will own the tv market in the southwest, but on a national level we should have the bigger draw.
And the reason for this is the lack of respect for SMC. I don’t know how many years it would take, but if they were to schedule tougher games (and I think they are doing well enough to win a few outside of their gym), eventually they could have the recognition they deserve. And the best part would be that better teams would actually want to do a home and home with SMC.
I realize the difference between playing on ESPN vs. ESPN 2 isn’t such a big deal. At least we’re not on the Ocho.
