akronzip12345 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Actually, anything above 3000 is good for OU, they usually do not draw large crowds.for OOC K-e-n-t didn't do to bad, it was George Mason though, so I dunno...What's our excuse then Quote

akronzip12345 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Thanks for the stats,I dunno if I believe those because I live down by OU and go to their games...but oh well.Keep in mind, OU's is probably "high" because theres nothing else to do down there. Keep in mind, K-e-n-t and Akron are 10 miles apart, we split the fan base.Still disappointed by our attendance. Quote

If Akron had a bigger arena, how many tickets could they sell of the Can't game? Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Keep in mind, OU's is probably "high" becauseOdd that "OU" and "high" appear in the same sentence? Probably the first time ever? Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 What's our excuse then From what I understand, the NCAA declared several hundred AK-Rowdies "fanatically ineligible" for the first semester. Assuming finals go well...and fingers are crossed on this one...there should be a major influx of Rowdies arriving soon. Quote
