I think they are pretty good. I am pulling for EKU...I saw Richmond play at Vandy, but that was early on-I thought Richmond was very good, very nice/balanced offense, but again, that was game 1....I like EKU's record and only two losses were against a good FCS/Kentucky team and transition/WKU team. Richmond is known for overspending the bid to get home games, and EKU attendance was bad this year (WHY?)...But, I think EKU will win, probably go to Wofford (Montana is overrated) and win game # 2!!! GO OVC !

Good luck to the Colonels and the Panthers. Win one for the OVC.

I think attendance at EKU games is down for three reasons...
1) There was no reason for Colonel fans to neccessarily believe this would be the season that the team claims another title.
2) UK has been (moderately) successful and many of their home games coincide with Easterns. Lexington is only 30 minutes of interstate from Richmond.
3) The most interesting games for the fans were road games (Murray, WKU, EIU, JaxSt) or didn't have usual draw (TSU's band didn't come because it was Homecoming).
I hope the attendance rebounds next season.
