Do you block us out the rest of the time?

I know, right. We have a pretty regular group of posters here.

I'm pretty sure we're top 5 on this board.

uk played in front of 92,000 empty seats in their loss to Baylor last night.

It is Kentucky's job to fill up the seats in Texas when we are facing a Texas team? Not sure if you saw it, but Baylor won that game to the applause of hundreds of Baylor fans. Weather, interest, cost... whatever. UK played that game for one reason. The Final Four is being held there this year. That is a huge familiarity advantage if they get that far.

Quote:LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- That didn't go according to plan. Two years ago, noting that the University of Kentucky "takes over" whatever city its basketball team visits for a game, John Calipari hatched a grand vision.

The Wildcats would play in the biggest venue, on national television. They'd get ready for the Final Four-dome type setting, and their fans would flock down. That was the idea.

Instead, he got what happened last night. Snow socked in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Fewer than 13,000 showed up in the cavernous AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys with a capacity of 105,000. And No. 20-ranked Baylor's length, athleticism and experience were more than capable of dealing with Calipari's basketball team, as the No. 3-ranked Wildcats struggled late to fall 67-62.

Not all things go according to plan.

Cuse's average attendance is hovering just under 25k...and the biggest games haven't even been played yet. I think they'll average about 26k this year. Cya UK.
