Marquette vs UW-Madison game

[JD]

Hello fellow MU faithful, I was just wondering if anybody would be interested in going to the $hithole they call the Kohl Center for the game?  It would be a sweet victory especially in person so who's joining!?

[MountainCreekHouse]

I am planning on going! Let's put some yellow in that sea of red.

I agree, have you got your tickets yet?

[MountainCreekHouse]

No but I'm fine with scrapping up some nose-bleeds

[furrious9]

Being a student here at Madison, i plan on going, in the student section with my marquette jersey, and fully embracing every a****** chant thrown my way. Im already making bets we win by atleast 10

[RyanConroy]

^^^ This is great stuff.

[Buchec18]

Planning on gathering up somewhat of a crew and going there. Still have to get tickets though, we've been looking but wanna see if we can get cheaper tix than $50.. anybody have any options? Poor student here.

Not many seats, just a couple of rows in Section 120.

Why didnt you go to Marquette?

[bilsu]

I will be there.

[jeffreyweee]

Why didnt you go to Marquette?

Most people don't pick their school based on basketball affiliation.

I'm not most people though.

Do you really think the Kohl Center is a $hithole?  

[Buzz Williams' Spillproof Chiclets Cup]

Do you really think the Kohl Center is a craphole?  

To re-tell an old joke, what's the difference between the Kohl Center and a porcupine?

A porcupine has 17,000 pricks on the outside.

I wouldn't call it a $craphole, but it sure is void of any character. Defines the word generic. I don't think the Bradley Center is anything to write home about, but it is 10 years older than the Kohl Center.

I'm going to scalp a few weeks before. Haven't missed this game in 7 years. Watching how athletic our team is, I can't understand how this should be close. But I'm sure it will be. Along with their high ranking also, don't get the Jordan Taylor hype. He is a good player, no doubt. But I would rather have DJO. Subtract Leuer and Nankvill and where do their points come from? Does Blue come home and have the defensive game of his life on Taylor? I certainly hope so.

It's going to be a great game, I can't wait to see us put serious ball pressure put on them.

[cheebs09]

I think their ball movement and three point shooting will make it tough on us in addition to being at the Kohl Center. Also, our rebounding will have to step up. I think it is a tough game.

I plan on being there as well.

I have never been excited by the interior of the complex.  Pretty cold and blase.  It is, though, fan friend in terms of sight lines, proximity to the court ...

They are athletic enough so that if they space themselves, move the ball, and shoot well enough, they will give MU a real tough time.  Especially since they never turn the ball over.

[PGsHeroes32]

I will hopefully be attending as well, first time to the KOHL Center for me.

As for the Badgers, I agree they are probably a little overrated but with the way they shoot in that building and have a lot of guys who can hit 3s we will be in for a game if our 3 pt defense doesnt improve.

Do you really think the Kohl Center is a $hithole? 

Simply: Yes, I do.

[ZiggysFryBoy]

Z F-B will be there.

[Sir Lawrence]

Have my tickets, will be sporting MU gear.
The Kohl Center is a much better basketball venue than the BC.  Dark ceiling, they close the hallways with curtains during play, to block light, so it has a "hunkered down" feel to it. 

If it's a schmidthole, then what is the BC?

[shiloh26]

I'll be there.  Purchased a pack of student tickets just for this game.  Furrious, I'll be there to weather the rain of "a--hole" with you in the student section.

I agree.  I wish we had a venue like that.  The BC sucks.

[MUMac]

I agree.  I wish we had a venue like that.  The BC sucks.

The court reminds me of the MECCA when they would turn the lights off in the seating area.  The focus is on the court. 

I used to prefer the Kohl Center.  Now, though, for atmosphere I prefer the BC.  I would take the seating configuration and aforementioned focus on the court from the Kohl Center to make the perfect venue.
