KU came to TBA in 2010 when they were #1 (we beat that arse with only 6 scholarship players ) and they traveled very, very well for being so far away. Had probably 600 or 700 here

Yeah that's kinda what I'm saying, with Kentucky going up to Missouri it will probably be like that in reverse with at least those sorts of numbers. ku traveling like they do would have obviously filled our arena to the brim every year if we had let them since we are so close by, but the rivalry was such that Mizzou fan demand was every bit as high as theirs. Right now, Mizzou fan mood and hopes for our team is pretty much at rock bottom and although its a big game against UK, the lack of history will probably mean our fans won't be as motivated to shell out huge cash for scalper tickets - and that's where the UK masses can always get you.
