FAU will be a very difficult test.

I do believe that game will probably sell out.

The only remaining home game you can't buy a ticket to (except general admission) on ticketmaster.  Interesting.

Wow, that is interesting ....... there are few resale tix there but that's it. StubHub has what looks like similar tix to TM but also some in the Club area, which I hate seeing. Nothing in the 300's though, which is odd if all the lower ones are sold ....... maybe I underestimated that game's interest.

How many FAU fans live in the area?  I'm guessing it isn't USF fans buying them up.

Good question. I believe only time ranked teams missed the tournament was probably due to being banned from post season play. If USF doesn’t get ranked in the top 25 this season I believe they will get there next season. 

In 2004, Utah State was 25-2 and ranked #21

FAU fans in the area and not that bad a drive from down there either. It'll be them and probably some casual college hoops fans from around here, plus some add'l, curious USF fans not already going to games.

Probably gonna be one of the biggest hoops games in the nation during that time. We shall see if ESPN College GameDay makes the trip to the YC….

I too underestimated the interest in FAU locally.  Assuming since there is a GA section this year, that the 300 level would just be part of that and you won't see seats for sale up there even if they plan on utilizing it for a game.  Not sure, but again I'm pretty amazed.

GO BULLS!

No, especially if we get a top 4 seed. I would say we are in the 5-10% range at this point. If we can show that we are capable of beating FAU I think that number jumps to 15% to 20%. 

Looking at the regular season conference champ odds, we opened at +4000 and that is now down to +550. I'm just glad this team has given us all something to enjoy. We are used to getting ready for Spring practice for football at this point.
