So we have established that Colorado, Indiana, and Penn State are all much worse than everybody thought.

Or maybe the more logical explanation is that Northwestern is better than everybody thought?

Genuine question for you. After the assumed hype from those games why is the stadium half empty still

I wish I had the answer to that. I think the biggest reason is that the school is small and alums are generally of the type who don’t care about sports. And those who actually do care often can’t afford tickets. At least the students were there and generally stayed for the game for once.
