At least MTSU has students, I am beginning to wonder if Western has any students left that attend basketball games?..If they do they sit around like they are at a nursing home..I know the product is not good, but good lord where are the students at Western? Even though are team is the worst since the late 90's as a student you need to attend the game and act like you care a little..

If Western had traveled even remotely close to how they used to travel, the game would have been a sell-out. Still, 10,105 is a great turnout (and almost 40% bigger than any crowd that can fit into Diddle.)

and they want to talk about wku's academics.... Diddle's capacity is 7300, you can get 7400 in the door but lets just use 7300. mt had 10,100....just rounding it is obviously below 30%. Third grade kids could figure that out. if you divide (this is all elementary math) 7300 out of 10100 you find that middle's attendance was 27.7% greater than the diddle capacity....shake your dick all you want...you don't need a 13k arena when you have exactly one home game a year that will reach that number....

Oh ****, who were we playing? I was some team in Murfreesboro....I cant remember their name...it doesn't matter. They aren't relevant, the color commentator said something about 25 years since they had been to the ncaa....they have never been to a final four...


OH WAIT IT WAS MTSU! Mediocre Tennessee State University! Sorry about that.

MT won.....we toyed with them for a while, kept them in the game, then coasted to a 19 point win. Same thing happened Sunday in the women's game.

Western's been to the Final Four ?

1971 - Western Kentucky* vacated after it was found that Jim McDaniels had signed contracts with an agent and to play for the Carolina Cougars of the American Basketball Association and accepted money during the season.

Wow...just wow.

You're right, this is third grade math, too bad for you, you are doing the wrong third grade math equation.

Let's establish some numbers, shall we?

Middle's attendance on Saturday: Roughly 10,000
Diddle's capacity: roughly 7,300

So, Diddle's capacity is indeed roughly 73% of the crowd we had on Saturday, but that doesn't mean it's 27% smaller. If your claim that Diddle's capacity was indeed 27% smaller than our attendance number from that day, all you need to do is increase 7,300 by 27% to get 10,000, right? 27% of 7300 is only 1,971. So if Diddle's capacity was increased by 27% you'd wind up with 9,271. See what you needed to do was subtract 7,300 from 10,000, when you do you end up 2,700, which is indeed 27% of 10,000, but we aren't trying to figure out what percentage 2,700 is of 10,000, that isn't Diddle's capacity, we want to figure out what percentage 2,700 is of 7,300. So if you divide 2,700 by 7,300 you end up with 37%.

so closest without going over wins right?

used the wrong formula oh ****!

let me try this math...

128-36=92

92/128=71.9% winning percentage
wku>mt or mt<wku...I like doing this math stuff...

Shut the **** up.

western has been to four actually. one was vacated. one was in the NIT but might have come after the mandatory bid policy.

this leaves us with
1942-2nd place
1948- third place

*1954-fourth place
*1971-3rd place.

What he's referring to is the NIT of the 40's and early 50's was considered by many to be the preferred post season tournament for national championship. The NCAA didn't become the preferred and accepted post season tournament until the 50's. The NIT then became the second choice or "also ran" tournament after that.
