It’s more showing we belong. We have a big football stadium and basketball arena. Our football team is lacking but
At least our basketball team is looking like a deep run potential.

But Baylor sells out every game

Of course. Built a tiny new arena. Easy to sell it out.

Wait, does that apply to small football stadiums too?
LaserCoug
Feb 11, 11:05am
Yes. If Baylor built a 35,000 seat stadium, it would sell out as well.

We're better than Kansas!

I don’t understand Wrubell’s obsession with attendance. If everyone else had an arena the same size as ours

It’s fun to “win” at something!

Odd. Oklahoma was half-empty on Tuesday but their average is near full capacity?

At the end of the day, the MBB program is making great money rn, which matters

This word, attendance, I don’t think it means what you think it means. Lots of teams fail to fill their arena.

And if percentages were what got used, I wouldn't object as much

95% of a 10k arena is not even close to 80% of a 19k arena
Warner

Why do you think that is even relevant?
Cougarbib
Feb 11, 5:18pm
So you're saying teams 11-14 would have double the attendance if they had the capacity?

I think that’s unknowable

FieroCoug, is also an Oklahoma fan and says it's never been a MBB school. Their attendance at the BYU game

There is probably a reason arenas are built to a certain size

Big 12 Revenue matters.

Are they selling out their current arena? If not, what difference would having

Unless those schools sell out - that size difference is irrelevant. U need a

If that were true I think Baylor would’ve gotten a bigger arena.

its easy to understand coming from BYU's history of having a P5/P4 fanbase but

Would be better to see in terms of capacity

How pathetic that Utah, with their rich history, will be dead last in attendance next year

Don’t understand why Baylor’s new arena is so small

Baylor is not a traditional powerhouse. They are a smaller city and university

I didn't get it either, but a Baylor fan on here provided a great explanation.

Exactly. BYU in that huge city Provo has a better fan base. Better fan support

Utah County has 730,000 residents and Mclennan county 230,000 residents.

As I said, BYU has a far superior fanbase - Local and National.

It's true we wouldn't. Weeknight games especially non conference

I want to see % of capacity

I’m shocked the OU numbers are that high. I was at game and only 40% full.
