Blue Not Getting in?
- Thread starter bbncal02
- Start date
Still 3 hours before tip, relax lol, Matt isn't God with an all seeing eye
Let’s hope they show up, I don’t see why they wouldn’t. I mean I guess the teams overall health may give some pause but I guarantee if they make it out of this region they will crush Indianapolis.
I’m at the team hotel. There are barely any fans here. Hotel has 209 rooms and at check in they said they still have over 100 vacant rooms.
Ughhh that’s not good. Oh well I hope we play well. We have flamed out with packed crowds plenty recently.
You think they are still flying in? Lol
Lots of money spent in the SEC tourney. Many fans are gambling and saving their money for Sunday
Fans might be holding out to see if we make it to Indy next weekend. If we get that far I would expect Indy to be flooded with blue.
Ugh. I know money is tight for a lot of folks but even with Pope’s gas money offer this is sad.
Even if we traveled less we should be able to beat Troy lol
Hope we beat him
I believe it, and am not surprised. I suspect a lot of folks are waiting to go to Indy next weekend. Illinois has a pretty rabid fan base and Chicago is less than 90 minutes from Chicago (which is where, obviously, a ton of Illini fans/grads live). I think there’ll be a ton of orange and blue. Really hoping that either Xavier beats Illinois or that Illinois continues its Jekyll and Hyde stuff……
I mean alot of our fans just spent no telling how much for the SEC tournament and I don't think they got their money's worth lol.
I’ve screamed it before and will continue to scream it. Stop with the stupid SECT takeover and go to the NCAAT!
The boner BBN has for the SECT is dumb as hell.

Must be waiting for their gas money reimbursements to clear.
He literally goes to almost every NCAA tournament game. What makes you think he can’t tell the number of fans around town and the venue? Seems like his eye would be pretty good.
Most Kentucky fans can easily drive to the SECT location. Not so easy for a nationwide tournament. Plus it's much easier to plan out with much more time. It's a simple matter of logistics.
I AGREE 100%!!!!
UK and our fans get NOTHING from the SEC anymore, so WHY spend ALL of that money to go to Nashville when the team REALLY needs our support in the NCAA Tournament???
Just win baby that is all I want. I don't care if it's 100 fans or 10000 fans just WIN.
Chicago does have some bad traffic though.
Milwaukee is not close. It's not across the country, but it's not the next state over either. It's a long ass way to drive to plop down 400 dollars down for nose bleed seats. Iowa State and Illinois fans want to see game as well.
Not shocked. I'm sure there will still be enough to start a Go Big Blue chant

I have a buddy there. Said there are a TON of Illinois fans
I’m not worried about how many fans we have in the house.
Does Matt really think an 8-9 hour drive is close?
Knew there would be.
That will be a tough matchup, if they win and we do too, with the crowd they'll bring Sunday. All of the Illinois fans will be cheering against UK tonight too.
A friend of mine just texted from a bar close to the arena. Said it was packed with UK fans for what it's worth.
We need to start winning and make it past the first weekend. In the past, fans were saving money for the second weekend. I think we get the monkey off our back this time and we are playing next weekend.
Most of those fans aren’t going to Milwaukee. There are a ton of regional fans especially around nashville. Some Lexington folks go because it’s close and it has a beginning and end in the same weekend.
Matt goes to everything Free who in the hell has $400 for two tickets to a Friday night game Transportation hotel the hell with the NCAA
Watch @ home
The cost is stupid
Plus our fans just wasted $1000 in Nashville
Hard Pass

To Milwaukee? I had only been guessing, but I looked it up and it's 7 hours if you go straight through.
