Arch Madness 2013

[shoxrox]

So WSU underachieved at 27-6, 16-2 in the Valley last year?

One weekend fling in St. Louis doesn't make a season, no matter what the Creighton Way says.

The two furthest schools from St. Louis once again carrying the other 8's jocks. And yet let's continue to reward the other 8 with a closer location for them.

And yes, maybe all of the screwiness of St. Louis has WSU fans a bit chapped about spending hundreds, if not, thousands of dollars per year watching mysterious events unfold. Maybe a lot of them are just gonna start saving their money for a well-deserved trip to KC someday.

"Screwiness"..."mysterious events"...LOL

Go read the thread at Shockernet from their Bradley game last night. They make Oliver Stone look like a rank amateur.

Easy to laugh at the screwiness when you're on the other end.

And yes, Shockernet is the only message board in the Valley, make that America, that complains about officiating. Thanks for stopping by though. We're a happenin' place.

While CU is clearly carrying the early ticket sales to Arch Madness, I can remember years when you could barely find the Jays section and the league managed to have the tourney in the Lou.
Seriously doubt the tourney is in any danger of going back to campus sites.

You're actually referring to the Rick Johnson years when Creighton didn't even make the tournament since they only included the top 8 teams and the bottom 2 stayed home. So yes, the attendance from Omaha was meager (non-existent).

Dana Altman championed hard for the idea of all 10 going to St. Louis with playing Thursday (actually Friday back then).

You got that right. As soon as things start going south (aka Dougie leaving), the NU fans will go back to their normal business and CU will not be represented in the 'Lou near to the extent.

You aren't very good at this.

Things will actually be going EAST for the Jays, to Madison Square Garden, but at least the Shuckers may finally win a MVC Conference Tourney when we are Big Priestin!

Very proud of CU fans! Several hundred in Berkeley, several thousand in Vegas and over 5,000 will be in St. Louis! We do travel well.
