If I recall correctly, MSU either offers in-state to some Illinois kids or out-of-state tuition at MSU is still cheaper than in-state at places like UI-C, SIU_ et cetera.

I've heard it's both. There aren't too many Illinoisans as of now, and most of them are from Belleville, Alton, and other towns by St. Louis. What was different about the last few days was the volume of Chicago-related clothing (especially Bears stuff) and license plates with frames listing dealerships in Mundelein, Arlington Heights, and other Chicago suburbs. They were on and near campus, at the nearby hotels, etc. It was like we had turned into Mizzou for 72 hours.

Yes. I lived there for 5 years.

I'm sure there were more t-shirt fans there this year due to the success of the basketball team in recent years. There are a lot of Mizzou/SLU hybrids that like both teams.

After the team returns to mediocrity starting with the 2014-15 season, I'm sure it will fall back off until SLU's next "good for 2 years this decade" window.

You are hilariously wrong. Are you
Kidding me ROFL There are easily more MU than U of I fans and it isn't close.

Yes, and KC is also a "Mizzou town". (Spits out coke laughing)

After KU's lack of attendance during the Big 12-4+2 tourney, you have no room to talk. After all, KU gave your second favorite team, ISU, a free home game during the tourney.

And we won't even mention KU attendance at Arrowhead...that would just be too embarrassing.

Did u attend the game at Arrowhead. I am done. This is too sad.

This is good news to hear other fans go to the Big 12, since that proves KU doesn't have an unfair advantage at Sprint Center. Hopefully more folks like you start thinking this way so the tourney stays local, and so that KU gets the credit they deserve for all their success rather than saying it's "unfair."

SEC still getting sand kicked in their face. What a year to try and launch a network, lol.

That picture sucks. Any context as to what I am looking at?

If anything is going to doom the SEC Network, it's probably this picture. And, no, I don't have any idea what it is depicting.

This is another giant ZING! from Bambi. I don't know how you do it, man? And I especially don't know how you find this to be at all relevant your point about a sports network. The SEC just played in both the CFB and CBB national championship games. They both lost, but I would say it's a GOOD thing for a conference to be represented in the top game, no????


For those wondering what this vague, and totally irrelevant picture is depicting:

It is supposedly a picture of a dorm room at Louisville where one of the students has a UK flag that can be seen hanging on his/her wall. Burn!!!

UCONN sweeps the basketball titles. Realignment was supposed to ruin them. I remember when the Como-Sexuals left for the SEC many of them said: "KU basketball is going to die now when they're forced into the Mountain West, Mo Valley, etc etc"


Just another in their hilarious line of stupidity that emanates from that reerun fan base.

I dunno man, Wichita State will try to keep you out. :p

No you don't. Because you are lying.
