GAME 7 - OKLAHOMA (4-2) vs Marquette (4-3) from Chicago 1:00pm CST on NBC

When you put something in quotes, it implies somebody said it, but I don't believe anybody did. The quote just said road but nothing about hostile, and you went off on a diatribe about Allen Fieldhouse, which sounds a lot like...embellishment.

Well @WichitaSooner ? You care about accuracy..

He responded to my initial comment that it wasn’t a road game by specifically using the word “hostile.”

You used “hostile”, not him.

Some of you, Wichita especially, will argue about some of the dumbest things. I think you enjoy arguing for the sake of it.

I disagree, you like to argue for the sake of it.

Radio said 80/20 Marquette folks.

“Neutral site” closer to them just like zags game.

Porter said pregame on radio it’s an NIL money maker. No brainer in his mind to play

He clearly isn't here for genuine discussion. I used the search function and was going to apologize if I missed the post, but perhaps expectedly, the post he mentions does not exist.

This has been mentioned before that neutral games make more money. Can you or someone elaborate on this for me? I don’t get how a neutral game makes more $ than a normal home game, unless the home team has a small gym.

Yesterdays game was part of the bad boy mower series…

They get paid to play there. Sponsored games make much more money than home games.

Zags game was played in Spokane so basically a buy game for zags. Say we make $50k on game in norman. Zags/arena that hosted thinks they can make more money and pay is $150k to go up there.

Big oof

 

[WichitaSooner]

Ahh yes, because the NCAA clasifies how hostile the crowd is.

Since he is lying about not referring to a hostile crowd after I pointed out it was a neutral court game, here ya go.

 

[WichitaSooner]

Big oof

See below.

 

[Eielson]

Neutral court game and not exactly a hostile crowd.

This is where hostile entered the conversation.

 

[WichitaSooner]

This is where hostile entered the conversation.

And you followed up by implying that it was, in fact, a hostile crowd despite how the NCAA classifies the game. And then this morning, you pretended like no one had suggested it was a hostile crowd, even though you had done that very thing.

Not even close to true. There is a clear record of what was said and everybody except you is in agreement, so this conversation is done.

You know how good it is for your soul/ego to just admit you got something wrong? Its okay. Its so good for you.

If OU is on the NCAA bubble, the Committee will view this more as a road win than a neutral court win even though it's technically the latter. Chicago is about 90 minutes from Marquette's campus. They obviously had most of the fans. If the game was in Tulsa, it would be considered less impressive when the Committee is putting together the field. Last year, I was at the OU-Michigan game in Charlotte. While that was a true neutral court win based on geography, the lady I took to the game still likes to tease that OU had about 50 fans out of 10,000. While a slight exaggeration, the operative word was "slight". For two football schools, it was a disappointing disparity...but if that win was in Detroit, the Committee would have given it even more weight.

Seems reasonable. They gotta chance to get a good Q-1 win against Wake Forest
