Well it somewhat depends if thats wet gangrene or dry gangrene. There's a big difference. And gangrene isn't an infection, just dead tissue.

AUslug 1 Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 If the game had been in Coleman the sign would have said "We Cheat in Memphis and we beat our secretaries", and it would have been Mark Gottfreid getting pimped slapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autkidd 0 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Calapari said that was one of the best crowds he has ever seen and many recruits would go to UAB just because of that... Personally I'd love for our section to be as crazy as that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UAB's atmosphere at Bartow puts most SEC schools to shame. Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lca408 366 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 We bitch on this board all the time about how we have hardly any fans show up to Beard-Eaves, yada yada yada. "If our guys could get some crowd support, we might do well and win some games." I agree. If Auburn had better fan support for basketball, maybe the team could get just the right motivation to go out there and win some games. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen very much, except for 1 or 2 big games a year. You can throw out that statistic about Auburn having about 100 more fans on average show up at Beard-Eaves compared to Bartow and thats fine. Of course, if I'm not mistaken, Beard-Eaves holds something like 11 or 12 thousand fans and Bartow holds about 9500. Has Auburn had a sell out yet this year? I would hope tommorrow is a sell out, but I believe tickets are still available. UAB sold out tickets to the Memphis game about 2 weeks before tip-off. Don't hate on UAB just because its a part of the University of Alabama system. Its a great school, with a great basketball program, and great fans.

Ryan i honestly don't think posting one stat is really hating on UAB. i have no problem with uab. i would have been suprised if uab didn't have a sell-out against memphis; #1 team in the nation, going for a perfect year, uab being the last c-usa team to beat memphis. just like i would be surprised if today's game isn't sellout for auburn. uab is having a great year. my only point was that uab isn't exactly packing out the house every night either and that's with them having a pretty good year (uab and usa may be the only teams from the state that sniff the post-season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
