Anyone have any speculations as to why this game in particular is selling so fantastically well? St. Mary's is certainly a respectable mid-major, but we've had other quality opponents here before that did not sell out 6 hours before tipoff (New Mexico, St. Louis), especially on a weeknight. Even the Florida State game last week took a walk-up crowd from the LBAA folks to get the upper corners filled.
Could it be the buzz around the NIT? One last chance to see Vashil and Keith Carter in person? The long period of time between last week's win and tonight's game? Maybe even a well-marketed game by the athletics department?

Little did he know how our making the ¼ finals would change all that.

We actually asked the officials about it... and the NCAA changed their mind about this... No Rules Changes for the tournaments.

Will Florida State be the first ACC team ever to play at the ARC??
Without looking anything up, if Notre Dame's pre-ACC tenure counts, then no.

The LBAA Tournament Boys Championship game tips at 3:30pm Sunday... followed by the awards ceremony...

I have little idea what the actual rules might be. But that makes a Monday NIT game sound pretty plausible.
Quote from: agibson on March 10, 2016, 02:53:01 PMIt would seem there's a non-zero chance that we get bumped down to a 3 seed or so. It would be hard to imagine playing on the road, but...
Quote from: vu72 on March 10, 2016, 02:43:57 PMSo if more regular conference champions lose does that improve our chances of getting into the NCAAs?
Quote from: mgovalpo on March 10, 2016, 02:00:00 PMI think the WCC break on Sunday (which was for both men and women) was because of BYU not playing on Sundays.
Quote from: VULB#62 on March 10, 2016, 08:09:29 AMWouldn't a 1 day break before the final be better for the finalists?

As much as I think we deserve an at large bid, holy crap do I want three power 5 schools to have to come to Valpo. When's the last time a top 100 RPI power 5 school came to Valpo? I think it was Purdue in 2011. Since that game the non-con top 100 (via KenPom) opponents we've had at the ARC:
2011-- #66 Iona
2011-- #71 Missouri St.
2012-- #69 Akron
2014-- #35 Saint Louis
2014-- #86 Mercer
2016-- #70 Iona
Let's get Kansas St, VaTech, and Ohio St to come to the ARC. They played a combined 4 true road OOC games this season, so let's see if they deign to play in the ARC.

If it's SiriusXM, it must be correct (I work for the company)
