Seton Hall will draw to some extent but it's 2 days before Christmas (never a good sell) and in Newark. One is paying $15+ for the train even before the ticket, any food and else. At the rate RU is playing would have drawn much better later as the game may well decide a postseason birth for both teams.
How was the crowd last night?

No one is paying $15 for a train ride? Huh?
How much is parking for games at The RAC?
Plus, you can park at The Rock anywhere from $5 to $20 within a few blocks.
Going to The Rock is much easier for a lot of RU alums compared to trekking all the way down to Piscataway.
timing is issue. Wanted to go and planned to go until it became the 1 night my extended family could come over. won't even be able to watch the game on the set. Otherwise I think a game in the holiday pre-window is cool. Puts ME in the spirit.
I don't see an issue with the game being on the 23rd.
Especially it being a Friday night game.
People can always make excuses to not do something though.

the game is at 630 on a night which is really the last night to get stuff done before X Mas. Its going to have big impact.
Talk to me when the student section is FULL. And by "full" I mean all 3 sections, packed top-to-bottom, without Smith's band taking up 30 freakin' rows.
6:30 on the last day of work (two days BEFORE Christmas? Another reason it might be tough to get to (though it IS a Friday).....
They let you move to an empty seat in the 200 level?
Last year ushers kept the middle of the 200 section empty rather than let those who bought cheaper 200 level seats from moving to mid-court
It's not a matter of moving down to the 200 level, but never climbing the steps up to the 300 level to begin with. Instead of walking past 20 nearly empty rows, just pick one to stop and sit down in.
Unfortunately, we very well could be on a losing streak by then given how tough the Big10 schedule is. Hope not.
I have to think the students, if back, will be in attendance in fairly big numbers.. They came out in great numbers for football-even at the end of the year. The B1G puts out a great product.
I think the students understand were in a rebuilding phase. However, they also know Pikiell's team plays hard, plays great D and frankly (as others have said the league isn't incredibly strong this year) is capable of beating anyone on any night. The students R hungry for a winner and this team has a shot at postseason play if they play to their potential. Given my past experience I think the student section will be a tough ticket by late January. Also in the past when the team is good they seem to be able to either get to games-or get tickets into other hands-while on break.
