UMass and BC playing in Boston is a little different than Penn hosting Binghamton. Penn hasn't had a meaningful home game over the holiday is years. I think they may have had LaSalle a few days after New Years recently, but they're usually on the road or playing teams like Binghamton. They played Davidson (pre-Steph) about a decade ago, and they were lucky if there were 1500 in the stands. If Penn can't get kids to come to the Princeton game when most of them are officially back (but class has yet to begin) what chance do they have of filling the Palestra against anyone over the holidays? John Q public sure doesn't care anymore.
