ESPN has 3,314 for Session I. I assume that’s a lot of MoSt and neutrals.

MoSt didn’t have much (and hasn’t since 2011). The 3,314 is tickets distributed with half of those being sponsors/all-session purchasers who didn’t show up.

It’s not often someone loses Todd Thomas’ Q&A games but the Evansville fan thought there were only 2 teams in Indiana.

Missouri St/Murray St set an Arch Madness record with only a 27-14 score at halftime.

Evansville/Illinois St threatening to rebreak that record a few hours later with a 20-13 score with 2:42 left.

Surprisingly, UIC has brought the largest student section and Belmont was 2nd. SIU 3rd. The other 5 had an empty student section.

UIC on fire up 41-27 at halftime. Credit to the Flames’ student section as they brought about 30.

My turnstile estimates:
Thursday afternoon - 1,500
Thursday night - 4,000

Few things better than a game going into overtime at 10:40 at night at Arch Madness!

Bryan Mullins with the Bryan Mullins special of taking the air out of the ball with 2:30 to go and up 5-6 points. Classic.
