If we are a top 5 team for 2 years in a row and I'm season ticket holder X residing in St. Louis or KC, and the upcoming games on the home schedule are Stetson and Eastern Arkansas I'm very likely to not arrange to leave work early and arrive back at midnight to watch what essentially is an exhibition game where we just cream the opponent.
In addition to an expectation of winning, you have to create an expectation of being entertained. Now that students don't go to the games anymore the atmosphere is generally subpar and if the quality of competition/play is also subpar due to the opponent then there isn't an expectation of being entertained. I'd just watch that on TV and save myself 6 hours in the car and parking lot.
