Drake @ Iowa Game Thread

Well they have almost 8000 season tickets, so you only need 2,000 walk ups to a game on a fri night. That should not be hard.

Bye bye credits.

If they can say they had 9K at the last two games, they surely can come up with more for this one.

Come on hawk-math. Don't let me down now.

The prop bet was for paid attendance, so that means whatever Iowa announces as the official number, is what the bet should be based on.

Actual attendance and paid attendance are two different things.

Worse yet - I'm pretty sure finals were this week so the students have probably cleared out.

Of course - paid and actual are two very different things.

Edit - Honest rw, I typed this before I read your post.

On TV they were saying 10,500 or so. It sounds more like 500 or so.

Is it just me, or does this entire program just feel, well, boring. Lickliter isn't exactly Mr. Intensity, though I do like him. The court sounds almost tranquil on TV. It just feels like you're watching a mid-major, and I don't mean that as an insult to Drake.
