Just for kicks, I am conducting this same poll over on the Oklahoma State board.

So far, 62.5% say they are significantly less interested than 10 years ago. Compared to 47% on HMax.

Yet another 37.5% of OSU followers say they are either somewhat more interested or significantly more interested versus 10 years ago. Only 6.7% of HMaxers fall into that category.

The two programs are 5 hours apart. One gets twice as much $$ in the Big 10. The "payroll" for both teams is in the $23 million range this year. The current temperature is that OSU fans feel a bit better, but still most say they are somewhat less or significantly less interested. The optimism is probably because hope springs eternal and they have a brand-new coach and 90+ new players on the roster.

I am going to continue monitoring to see how the results look and compare in a week.

I am only interested in what your Red Raider brethren feel about the topic.

Anxiously waiting for those results!! ;)

We eagerly await your frequent reports back. Godspeed.
 
Once you select your number, feel free to discuss "why." Older? NIL? Conference? Other priorities in life? Huskers aren't as good as they used to be?
all the above. i used to have a 8 screen wall just for saturday football in the basement. sold off most of it a couple years ago. just no desire to see what its become. i used to be downright giddy for saturday mornings. now, im not afraid to go to the store or do something outside in the middle of the day....

every saturday used to be like christmas morning when you were 5 and got to open presents. now its like getting a colonoscopy....
 
I voted "Somewhat less interested than 10 years ago". My daughter who was a BIG NU fan 10 years ago or so now she voted "No interest in CFP whatsoever ....."
 
I’m every bit as excited to watch football on Saturdays as i was 10 years ago. What’s changed is the amount of information i consume during the offseason. I used to drive around all day with Omaha sports stations playing and read every article on Hmax daily. I haven’t listened to anything all offseason and have maybe clicked on 5 articles.

I can get with this. I spend a lot less time in the off season worrying about and listening to talking heads discuss things.
 
There is a game in 4 days and there are 10 people in here. That’s very weak.
Some people (like me) are probably tired of the endless, meaningless speculation and predictions. Everyone has an opinion that means absolutely zilch at this point. That all changes this weekend.

If there are only 10 people in here next week, that would be truly sad.
