In my opinion: ISUr had the largest crowd yesterday, then Bradley, Loyola and Southern roughly tied for 3rd.

Drake the smallest, by a lot. I think Evansville brought more folks over for a Thursday game than Drake did for a Friday.

Not sure who has more fans - Sugar Bears or Barry.


I don't follow the reference to "ch/ness". :huh: What does that mean?

The Arch Madness logo is painted on the court. Take a look at where the halfcourt line is painted through the logo, then it will make sense.

Hardly saw any ISUb fans. SIU/MoSt fans kind of blended together.


They curtained off the upper deck, but lower bowl capacity is still almost 10k. It was about half full on Friday, so probably somewhere around 5-6k.

While Loyola has had their biggest contingent since joining the Valley, they were definitely not the 2nd biggest.

That's the most Bradley fans I've seen in several years. I'd rank it as ISUr, Bradley, SIU, Missouri St, Loyola, Drake, Indiana St.

Box score for the Bradley game showed attendance at 6,410.

I thought the over all crowd size was pretty good. They would let you set where ever you wanted.
Many fans of all teams sat behind the benches or where ever they thought was a good vantage point.
That was the most Bradley fans I had seen in a long time.
People were scattered in the end sections, Bands, some students, then fans.
I thought the loss would Wichita would be more visible. I told my wife during the game yesterday Bradley kind of took over WSU's spot of filling their section and spilling over into the curve!
I thought UNI had a pretty good crowd. I actually thought Drake had more than usual. It is harder to tell when fans are sitting up in the Club area.

UNI had a great contingent on Friday. ISUr had the most and it wasn't close.
