Because it isn’t



It’s almost fifth behind women’s basketball-softball and barely beating out women’s volleyball lol

I predict this thread will get anchored because it once again reveals the obvious truth .

When the First Round of the postseason is streamed mainly thru a ESPN + subscription with high school level production you know it’s not that popular.

Omaha has been a snooze fest too

Any more current data?

I bet it’s more popular now.

No where near football and basketball but still more popular that it was in 2015

College baseball is popular in the South and West coast. It is definitely not a northern or Midwest sport. That would be hockey

Just think how Aggy fans would be if they could claim that they are fifth in national championships in any of these sports that OP says, matters.

You are STILL melting about LSU being in another championship game.

Dude, you have got to move on.

I honestly believe the last game we saw was one of the more entertaining ones you could ever ask for. Not sure I agree with that statement. Louisville/OSU was pretty awesome as well.

Nothing factual yet to contradict my post. I thought you were supposed to be a doctor . Trust the science, not your feelings.

LSU-Florida in 2023 averaged 2.85 million across the series with 3.6 million watching Game 3 alone.

Who cares? IF you like it, follow it. If you don't, don't.

Same thing with music or movies. There's huge artists I could care less about. But there's less popular artists I may drive hours to see.

If you don’t like it don’t watch it. Those of us that do will.

To be fair, women's volleyball is one of those sports where I can easily see people watching even after their school has been eliminated.

I'm not sure WHY, per se... there's just something different about it.



I will say... the moment Beach Volleyball becomes an NCAA sanctioned sport, NIL will explode in favor of women's sports.

One game out of how many?

Not to mention a lot of it was due to fielding errors, not necessarily last minute heroics.

The WNBA draft this year doubled the viewership of the MLB draft. In 2023 a women’s volleyball game had 92,000 people in attendance. Single events aren’t sports wide.
