Just left the Corner Alley which is the Alumni host. Saw Goose there. Right now I see as many UK fans as any but, probably not more than others. Pretty evenly balanced at this point.

Lots of empty seats for this first game so neither Notre Dame or Wichita St. brought a ton of fans.

WSU has a fair few in their corner section. My thought is that most of those empty seats will be UK fans. I hope!

I am concerned that for the first time this year Big Blue Nation may be outnumbered by WVA fans. I was in Syracuse in 2010 and they outnumbered us in that Elite 8 game. They took over Columbus in the first two rounds. I hope we have enough Big Blue fans in reserve who still have some money left to travel to Cleveland. As of this morning the game was not a sell out.
No way and I was there, too. WV doesn't have much of a fanbase regardless of who they play. Kentucky fans will outnumber everyone 5 to 1.

The yellow in the corner is ND fans. If they stay and cheer against us we could be out number 3 to1.

No, they are Shocker fans. They are cheering when WSU gets a rebound and you can see Greg Marshall's wife just behind the bench.

No worries. But you're right about us being outnumbered. We will have a plurality of fans, but won't have the majority. Hopefully the fans of whoever loses will leave and the remaining crowd will be about 50% UK

Sitting in the middle of the Wichita State section. No advantage for Blue tonight. I'll try and get a picture for you all a few minutes before our game.

I hope I'm wrong England but this makes me feel better.

We do usually have the upper sections though, which you can't see on TV. Hoping that's the case anyway...

Like I said way earlier in the thread, we will be lucky to have an equal amount of fans at this game. There was no way we were going to dominate it. Just too many things against us in this one.

Whoever loses the first game, probably won't cheer for or against us, and will just watch the game for its entertainment.

Keep in mind folks we don't really NEED a home court advantage. We've done okay in true road games this year I'd say.
It would be nice if it's not overwhelming in favor of WVU though.

So...UK fans who are not at the game are trashing UK fans for not going to the game...

Is it just me or does the crowd not seem overwhelmingly loud in the WSU/ND game? Is it a function of being in a more open pro arena?

Fan support is great but we aren't playing the game.I don't think we have that much control over how they play and I'm sure the players could care less about the crowd.

A lot of it depends on where the broadcasting team places the mics.

When they just flashed the team up on the screen a second ago it sounded like there were more boos than cheers. We definitely didn't takeover Cleveland.

It's a function of microphone placement. If there is no one there for one team, the put a mic in front of the few that are. They pump or down the volume as the game goes. TV makes TV.
