Aside from Michigan, I’m not sure they’ve faced a defense as good as ours. Their points scored margin is something ridiculous like +32. Play fast against crappy defenses, that’ll happen. That said, we’ll need to slow them down for sure.
Aw jeez.... this isn't like a no hitter, is it? Where you don't talk about it while it's in progress?
Well Arizona might have had something to do with UM’s bad 3-pt shooting. Currently they are 24th in 3-pt FG defense, holding teams to 27%. Even excluding the UM game they are 29.1%, which would be 60th. For comparison, Illini are 167th at 32.6%. And when I see a team have almost as many steals (7 in Arizona’s case) as their opponent has assists (8 for Michigan), that tells me some good D is being played.
I still haven’t gotten over 3 of Kiwane’s misses
If they're being sold at a face value of $90, doesn't that make them $90 seats?
Totally get where you're coming from. In my limited experience, I thought the face of all the Upper 200 level seats were $25, regardless of the game.
Some combination of us having a better team, playing a marquee, quasi-rival opponent, and doing so on a Saturday will tend to cause demand to skyrocket.
We have 6 in better spot than that and don't even pay hardly that for the entire year!!
It’s progressive pricing. Welcome to the new world. Happening in all sports. The higher the demand for single games, the higher the single game ticket price. Single game tickets for Cardinals vs Pirates on a Tuesday night go cheap. Tickets for a Cards vs Cubs on a Saturday are sold at a premium. It’s a free enterprise / supply and demand world my friend.
I believe the game is on Wednesday night the 22nd....but I digress...been a few years (I think 2018 was the last time I was there) but this is usually a pretty high demand ticket....I will be there this year and we damn well better put an end to the Mizzo win streak in this game....ILL
We are talking about the Arizona game this Saturday, though...
AAAhhh......my bad
.....carry on ......I'll have another Heffwizzen.....go Illini!
I mean, it's Wyoming...
That is true, but you can't watch them play and not be impressed.
In general I just can't watch them play at all because.i don't have Pac-12 Network.
I didn't much care for Miller, but I have watched most of the U of A, PAC 12, Big Ten, ACC, and ranked team games for many years. I have always loved college BBall since I was a kid and have both COX and DirecTV and get 30 to 50 games most nights. Couldn't live without it.
Good gravy, that's a large TV bill. I'd probably watch Arizona a fair bit if I had the channel on account of I live here, but I don't, so I get that time back to answer 10,000 questions from my kids every night while being jumped on.
