I am curious how the championship game goes now that is in Kansas City? I have checked the KCSTAR this week and have not seen one article about it. Even worse this morning the lead sport article isn't even a sports story. It is about a high school "possibly" being racist at a basketball game. I believe that either team playing in the final division 2 game could compete with half the teams in bowl games. What is even sadder is the semi finals were on ESPN 3 a sub channel while one of their prime channels showed a who cares basketball game. I for one will complain to the NCAA, and if both schools fans started complaining maybe d2 championship games in all sports would get more tv coverage. Seems the softball championship was on internet not tv? ESPN is about pro sports. I for one think d2 football, basketball, baseball and softball should get better coverage for their championships. These kids have worked hard and many are not on scholarships. They deserve more support.

true, however the Kansas city area has given very little coverage. The national news outlets like to follow pro, it they would give some attention to d2 maybe crowds would pick up. I would much rather to watch the d2 championship or the d1a semi finals over the sewer bowls. or in the case of last week  Ariz. stomp Missouri in basketball. NCAA could and should put pressure on the national media for more coverage

The "sewer" bowls, or less important ones are still very important
to schools for the money they generate to keep as many sports as
possible. It can be the difference in softball for the next season.
The SEC has 12 teams going to bowls (maybe 13) that the entire
conference will benefit. there aren't too many bowls and they all
are necessary for the financial health of all the difference sports
for schools depending on it. 

 

What they call cup cake games in D1 football are greatly appreciated
for the large paychecks and national exposure for the not so great
teams, and just might be their bowl game for the year.
