Many are saying 8, but I am hoping 7 lol

I am living dangerously. I am buying the day of the game.

We did this in OKC. You have to really commit to monitoring all day. We got amazing club level seats, but there were still face value seats available the whole time, so there was always a backup option. For S16, there are no more face value seats

Yeah, at this point now, might as well wait until the day of the games unless you are fortunate to be financially healthy.

What time are we playing? My bracket says 1015.

Has not been announced yet. Duarte speculated that we would have the late game, which would mean 8 PM or later.

God forbid itā€™s a 6pm tip and the arena isnā€™t full.

If you have tix, please get there on time. I get itā€™s a weekday and that thereā€™s an Astros game that afternoon. But we all know that so make arrangements NOW.

Be on time. Be loud. Wear red.

Youā€™ll be in the wrong place then.

I live in Cinco Ranch II in Katy.

But anyone who knows me knows that no such serum will be necessary.

We played Illinois in the playoffs a few years ago, and I was definitely cheering for UH all the way!

Do we want Iowa to win or Florida for the possible rematch?

94

I donā€™t care other than hating the Florida coach. Illinois is biggest road block in this region to me. Not that we auto beat either FL/ Iowa but to me Illinois will be toughest to beat.

We beat them in the sweet 16 in 21, I think, so their coach has seen it before.

97

The atmosphere that Florida has in Tampa is what the Toyota Center should be like. it should be no minimum than 10K (and more) UH fans.
