But that large aTm alumni base tho I thought you Aggies made money. I guess the price of oil is hurting that cash flow.
Gimme a break. First, A&M struggles to fill the arena even with a conference-winning team. Basketball just ain't our thing. Second, Lexington is 214 miles from Nashville. BFD. Day trip. College Station is 761 miles away... so nobody is driving.
I'm sure the attendance will heavily be in UK's favor. Sucks, but it is what it is.

This has zero bearing on the people that show up to the tournament. They're the people who can't get tickets to games in Rupp and live out in West Kentucky. Nashville is closer for them than Lexington. For a lot of them, my wife's family included, even Oxford is closer than Lexington,, so they go to that game.
