Other than Creighton what B East schools sell out?

Of the CU road games I have watched and other B East games I watch, I would say not many. Somewhat concerning.

For the four conference games at Hinkle, only one has been a sell out. Hinkle capacity is listed as 10,000. I believe Butler lists actual attendance rather than tickets sold, but I could be wrong. I think you have also hit a nerve with some posters who will flame back at you for bringing this up.

Villanova 9,318
DePaul 6,163
Georgetown 9,640
Marquette 10,000

so we are about to hear the old Colorado Football excuse?.... To many outdoor activities, to many other schools close by, to many pro sports type of thing?

Fans of teams that can't win in the post season love to worry about attendance... There must really be nothing to do in Nebraska.

As a Creighton fan, I am embarrassed.

You got a link for that? And do they have any numbers other than Butlers? I'm having some trouble finding Marquette's #'s. I'd assume they are still reasonably high since there are over 3,000 student season ticket holders and I would assume at least a similar number of non-students. We don't generally sell out the 20,000 seat Bradley Center, and I would assume we will have a dropoff from the 15,000 we had last year, but I would still assume we wind up around 14,000.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Georgetown does not sellout
DePaul does not sellout

You beat those 2 schools. If this is what you were fishing for.

Please disregard this guy, we as Creighton fans love being in this conference, attendance in the Big East is easily top 5 in the country.
