Watching from Texas last night, I was equally impressed by the crowd as I was the game. “Rupp was Rockin!” It’s been a while since the crowd has been that loud. Can’t wait until we’re back listed as the toughest arena to visit!!!!!

^^^^^ This has always been the case at Rupp. Fans simply aren't going to get excited watching the CATS play a team like Minot State University. Good opponent brings a rowdier Rupp crowd.Rupp always rocks when it is a highly ranked opponent. People just have a hard time getting up for the bad opponents.
It also helps when there is a team on the floor worth cheering for that looks like legit contenders. A far cry from the 9-16 team. Talented players, homegrown kid like Sheppard and a change in style of basketball have quite a bit to do with it giving BBN hope.This is what many on here have been saying. Bring in a quality OOC opponent, and Rupp still kicks @$$. Bring in Cupcake State or Directional University and it sound more like a prayer meeting on Wednesday night.
