If you fall into the trap of saying that certain games don't mean anything then where does it stop? Pre-conference games don't matter, conference games don't matter... anything but an NCAA tourney bid doesn't matter?!? Give me a break.
If none of the games matter except the conference tournament championship game then what is the point? Are you a fan for one game or the whole season?
I love seeing my alma mater play anyone anytime. I love competition and I love college basketball. There is always pride on the line. I want us to beat teams for the sake of beating them. Sure, I understand that some games are more significant than others, I get that, but as long as the game is played and there is a winner and a loser, the game means something!
If only one game matters to you this season why bother being a Weber fan? I'm sure you could find another sporting event that "matters" more.
