I’ll be there…where do we think the MU section will be? (Looking at tickets now)
-
Any early indications on Friday night game time?
-
I'm in Austin for a conference and trying to swing this. Game time matters but doing everything I can to make this

Jake
Get your ass to Dallas!!
-
I’ll do my best to be there Sunday.

Just a guess, but if Duke wins tonight, Marquette v NC State will probably be the least valuable game for the networks. (Houston v. Duke, Purdue v. Gonzaga and Creighton v. Tennessee being the others.)
That *usually* means the third game to tip of the evening, which means around 8:00. My guess...
Duke v. Houston
Creighton v. Tennessee
Marquette v. NC State
Purdue v. Gonzaga - they will definitely tip this last for the west coast audience.
If JMU beats Duke, I would guess they'd move us to the first time around 5:30.

Any early indications on Friday night game time?
The TV slots on CBS and TBS start at 6 PM and 6:30 PM so figure tips 10-15 minutes after that and second games about 2 1/2 hours after those.
So the four start times would be about 6:15, 6:45, 8:45, and 9:15.
If the other game is Houston-Duke I would guess that MU will be the first game at the site, but that’s just a guess, and what I would prefer.
-
I bought my tickets…didn’t want to wait until after the Houston game…section 123
-
Enjoy. I am going to have to manage my spring break driving schedule that Sunday. Not golf ball driving, Rico, you not real fan who would rather golf, but my driving across the country.
-
Will probably be there. Will wait to Friday and but tickets then.

Appreciate the info! These ETs?

Is it definitely Friday?

Is it definitely Friday?
Yes. The dates at the respective locations are always set long in advance. Here they are for the next two years.

I’m fully booked and can’t wait. Any Scoopers want to bring the sticks and play some golf on Saturday?
-
All in, no finish line!!
-
6:10pm FRI ! ! ! 8-)
-
Cheapest pair I'm finding right now for Friday alone is $600+ including fees for crappy uppers in the end zone. Put that together with a few other things going on, including a family commitment, and I'm probably gonna have to pass, dammit.
After Marquette wins Friday, maybe we could swing it for Sunday.
-
If anyone has a single for Friday they are trying to get rid of, lemme know.
-
I ended up picking up lower level seats in Sec. 123 for all sessions on Seat Geek. It seemed like the better value vs. purchasing each game separately. Even if Duke takes down Houston, I don't see the prices for Sunday falling considerably.
-
Does anyone know what hotel the team is staying at? I called the MU ticket office and they said they didn’t have that information.
-
Bought both sessions ticket.
That was a lot.
-
Any idea what the game time on Sunday would be? I think it will be either 2pm or 5pm? Trying to plan my flight home for Sunday night.

Last year's Sunday games were at 2:20 and 5:00. Likely won't be finalized until Friday's games are complete.

I'm driving up from San Antonio friday morning, My first time seeing the boys live in like a decade, and my first NCAA tournament game. Might end up spending 1600 on tickets, I am excited.

I'm driving up from Houston on Thursday and can't wait for tip off. I will stay after the big win for the Sunday contest. The last time we were in this position - Washington DC, 2013 - I attended the win over Miami in the Sweet 16 followed by a vanquishing at the hands of Syracuse in the Elite 8. If I remember correctly, Obama was at the game and brought us horrible luck in a 55-39 defensive snoozer.
