I appreciate everything SVP said on it last night in One Big Thing: "multiple things can be true at once... The Big 12 is the best basketball conference... the Big 12 played an awful OOC schedule... it did help manipulate NET rating... ACC schools: there's nothing preventing you from doing the exact same thing next year - schedule accordingly."
Pittsburgh tried to do this and lost to mizzou

I know that. Their fans still bought alot of tickets.

Creighton fans likely hold the majority of the tickets. Their season ticket holders get the first chance to buy tickets. Most love college BB and gobble up all they can get. Plus, they know they can unload any sessions that they don’t want to attend. This is exactly what my friend does, a long-time Creighton season ticket holder.

Does anyone on ESPN ever criticize the SEC for playing soft football OOC schedules?

Creighton fans don't get first crack at the entire pile of public tickets.

I'm seeing a lot of discussion about the first weekend of the tournament but not much about the sweet 16 and elite eight. I intend to make the trip to LA/Boston/Detroit/Dallas WHEN we advance. Win out and we're the lowest 2 seed playing in LA? Thoughts?

And Bama is finally starting to schedule home and homes but for A LONG time the big dog schools like them want neutral fields.
That's why I love that FSU beam LSU these last couple years.
