Looks like a packed house in Storz

LOL...

Should've played the game at Gampel.

XL Center, same place where we'll play em. So will be a bit easier road game for us than the claustraphobic and sweaty Gampel gym.

Expect a tad bit more Orange fans at XL than 'ville fans. Let's take it over!

School still not in seession, and they usually play the bigger games in Hartford, more seats=more $.

The lower bowl was embarrassing though.

You mean like last year's Syracuse game?

they were sending out emails saying that they were not sold out. I live 20 minutes form there. I should have gone

Their fan base isn't nearly as passionate/dedicated as they should be considering what kind of program they consider themselves.

We had 17,000+ on NYE against Central Connecticut coming off a loss and a poor effort against Alcorn State. They can barely get 12,000 coming off a big win against Notre Dame and playing Louisville, the new #1 team in the country. Also, Napier might be one of the players I like the least in the history of the Big East.

Still, Ollie is doing a pretty great job, much better than I ever would have thought he would.

Crowd arrived late. Civic center was 80% plus full and loud. Lower bowl was full.

Those were L'ville fans who flew in late because of the fog.

For Louisville? That's terrible. We would've had 25K or more on a Monday against LVille.

80% of 16k is about 13k. You come here to brag about that while playing the #1 team in the land?

Man, what happened to your school.

Can you say "Bandwagon"?

 

[jdubs30]

I see a lot of empty blue seats there OFP...

EDIT: Granted, it is difficult to sell out XL

Man, what happened to your school.

I know, it's almost like being ineligible for the NCAAs and having every rival ditch us was demoralizing for the fan base, who'd a thunk it?

 

[Orangello]

Patches of Corporate tix. No patches in the 200s.

I actually thought they were just some of your passionate fans taking an in game nap.

 

[jncuse]

Can you blame them. Who would want to cheer on a team with Shabazz Napier on it?
