If we were 2-10 in conference, our crowds would look the exact same.
Maybe it's like that for basketball in general then. I was watching Wake and UNC a few weeks ago when they played at Wake. There were honestly more UNC fans in the stands than there were Wake fans. They're having a shitty year, too, so maybe it's just basketball.

I went to every football game during the 21 game losing streak.
Basketball is just different. It's not an all-day event. A close game is exciting; a win is always fun. On the other hand, watching your team flounder around and be pretty much guaranteed to lose by double digits against any team with a pulse (including Southern Conference teams) is just depressing. Honestly, when you read the box score you're glad you didn't go. When the team is middle of the road and any game can go either way, sure, then it's still worth going. If you're as bad as we are, with no chance -- forget it. Why put yourself through that?
