Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 5089868, member: 7492"] I wonder how many season tickets have been sold at the XL Center? Gampel holds 10,299 for basketball while XL holds 16,294. Last year, the women's team averaged 11,181 which was their highest amount in 20 years. This year, there are 7 games scheduled at XL and really only 1 true marquee game of SoCal on Dec 21 and a quasi-good game against Creighton on Feb 22. The other 5 games are "pedestrian" to say the least- Boston Univ, Georgetown, Providence, Xavier and Butler. If the team beats last years average, it will be a tribute to Geno/CD not due to the teams they are playing. By my calculation, UConn finished 3rd in average attendance last year behind Iowa and SC. I suspect Iowa will take a step back and UConn could be vying for #2 again. [/QUOTE]
