I'll be going but DAMN...a local team SUCKS . :facepalm

Tickets were $15 - 10 rows from floor this year.

Mizzou and Oklahoma should bring in more people than Taco Tech and Nebraska

I wouldn't be so sure about OU bringing more fans than Nebraska. OU can hardly get any fans to travel to KC for the conference tourney, so I wouldn't expect many to make the trip for a tournament right before Thanksgiving. Mizzou, on the other hand, will have plenty of people there.

yup..that's what stinks....local school = higher priced tickets or worse seats.

Mizzou will sell that out themselves. Plenty of MU fans here in KC

hopefully they (mu) kind of suck early on next yr...so they aren't as likely to go watch.

Mizzou sucks. Always has. Based on my decades of attending Big-8/12 basketball tournaments in KC, their basketball fan-base contains large numbers of terrible human beings. As bad as they are, Colorado Buffalo football fans are even worse.

I miss the trips to OU games at Nebraska and aTm, but I am so pleased that Mizzou and Colorado are darkening somebody else's conference.

They just drew fewer than 10,000 for a home game this week in their 15,000 seat arena, so I think it is very unlikely that they will come close to filling the Sprint Center, unless their team makes a huge turnaround by next November. They will obviously have more fans there than OU, Butler, or Stanford, but it won't be like those classic conference tourney games from the early 2000s when we repeatedly beat them in front of a full house of MU fans in Kemper.

Missouri basketball prominence has taken a hit over the years for they've undergone losing seasons in 3 of the past 4 years and are currently 3 and 3 this year. Tickets will likely not be scarce to come by.

No way they had anywhere close to 10k butts in seats. Their attendance is about like ours - sadly. Tickets sold maybe...

True...but being Thanksgiving week...city of 1 million, a few fans might just decide it's better than driving 2 hrs to Columbia for a game...especially early in the season.
