It's all in good fun, but if I could steal a quote from Fever, "Obsession noted."

Meh. If they were doing well it would make us look desperate. As it is it's just funny given all of the smack Creighton fans talked while leaving the conference.Originally posted by KraRam View Post
Zero doubt they'd be doing the same thing if the shoe was on the other foot. Hell, if Marshall left they would have done it.Originally posted by BleacherReportComment

"Men's Basketball Ranks Sixth Nationally in Average Home Attendance"
Cool. Nice moral victory there. I'm just glad so many people were able to watch Creighton tie for last. I was surprised the article made no mention of the convenience of using Groupon.
Here's my favorite line in the article:
"...the Bluejays became the first team to average 17,000+ fans, despite finishing with a losing record, since Louisville in 2000-01."

That's one way to look for a silver lining. The logical compliment would be it proves people going to CU basketball games must not actually watch the game being played, as we've suspected for years.Comment

Does that mean that more people saw more losses in Omaha than anywhere else in the country?Originally posted by Dave Stalwart View PostComment

I think you may be right. What is (19 losses X 17,000 witnesses)? That's how much failure was individually witnessed in the Omaha Public Library this season alone.Originally posted by FlyingWheat View Post
If it didn't require a ton of research into the other popular losing teams in the NCAA, I'd almost be compelled to figure out if CU was #1 this season in "individual losses witnessed in person."
EDIT: upon further review, the number of home losses was 8, bringing the failure number to approximately 136,000 :) No losses have been witnessed at Charles Koch since like 2013 so it's tough to compare...Last edited by Dave Stalwart; July 8, 2015, 09:44 PM.Comment

With all that tortuous basketball on display, I bet beer sales were through the roof. Don't be surprised if they have a huge Budweiser logo on the front of their jersey's next year.Originally posted by Dave Stalwart View PostKung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!Comment

I'm confused. Here is a nice write up about the Big East but I didn't see where it mentioned powerhouse Creighton ever...at all. They are supposed to be a powerhouse program by now right? It seems to mention all the other teams. I mean, it IS a full conference overview and all. Creighton is in the Big East, right? This article even spends quite a bit on DePaul and Marquette.
Weird. :)

I believe CU and the Hall were both no shows in the lame article. Love the following quote:Originally posted by Dave Stalwart View Post
"St. John’s was a 9-seed, but the rest were seeded sixth or better, including Villanova, which claimed a No. 1 seed. Unfortunately for the league, none of that translated into postseason success.
The Red Storm and Providence didn’t make it past the first game. Villanova, Georgetown and Butler fizzled out in the round of 32. Nova proved to be the most disappointing in its upset loss to 8-seed NC State.
Xavier was the only team to advance out of the first weekend but was promptly sent packing by Arizona in the Sweet 16."
No what's so new about the Big Least getting a lot of teams in, only to see a lot of teams out early?Comment
