Around SBN: Dana White Announces Koscheck vs. Hendricks for UFC on FOX

Absent Texas fans?!

To many times the Kansas game comments referenced the functional home crowd for KU in Oklahoma city

Where were the texas fans? How did we get overwhelmed in the crowd? Did we not expect to be there?

We're a football school
It's only been fairly recent that that basketball program is becoming well-publicized. Not enough time  to build up a large hardcore fan-base.

Yep.
How many Kansas fans show up to their football games?
Street level

What California said... but also
This is just the Big 12 Tourney.  It matters, but I'm not sure it matters enough for our Dallas/ Austin/ Houston alumni to drive up to Okie and spend three nights there.

Good point!!
Spending one night in okc is bad enough,... can't imagine staying three nights there.  I'd rather have a root canal!!

Also the draw
Kansas had a pretty easy draw to the finals.  Texas was no where near an automatic with a potential match up against A&M.

TEXAS certainly was not well
represented in the crowd.  My guess is that the fan base was about 90% ku blue.  Ugly,... ugly,... ugly!!!

Spring Break
Although I don't think the fact that Texas is now on Spring Break makes much of a difference, but some kids may have just gone home.
