Our fans used to show up in New Jersey all the time when we played Seton Hall at the Meadowlands in the 90’s. Hurley said in his opening press conference that it seemed like there were more UConn fans than Seton Hall fans. I think he was right.Their fans showed out big time in Charleston... hoping ours do too at the Prudential Center.
I was at the Duke game and it seemed roughly 50/45 uconn fans to duke fans with some of the arena empty. Been to most of the MSG games since and its been a big UConn turnout. Not saying we wont show out but hope we bring the noise. They were smug, loud, and imposing during the Marquette game.Our fans used to show up in New Jersey all the time when we played Seton Hall at the Meadowlands in the 90’s.

As far as our most recent games in NJ a couple years ago vs FSU in Newark and vs Duke in 2015, how was the turnout?
I saw us play the Hall twice at the Meadowlands, the year of our first championship and the next year. Crowd was close to half UConn fans each time.Our fans used to show up in New Jersey all the time when we played Seton Hall at the Meadowlands in the 90’s.

I was actually at that Seton Hall game in 1999 as well. IIRC, It was a very low scoring game. 53-48 was the final? But I agree, It probably was about 50% UConn fans that day.I saw us play the Hall twice at the Meadowlands, the year of our first championship and the next year.

Have tickets with my son who lives in North Jersey for the St. Bonnies game
IIRC, we trailed for a long time but finally took the lead when Ricky Moore stripped his man and took the ball in for a layup, and then we pulled away.I was actually at that Seton Hall game in 1999 as well.

Perimeter defense is key and having Sanogo play like he did post incident last game.Solid team, they shoot the lights out. Will be a tough matchup for sure.
