Awesome! However I have a feeling we are going to be out numbered tomorrow night unless some more Bobcats come out. Akron had a great crowd as they should since they are only 35 miles away.

My daughter and I had two Bobcat fans that flew in from Springfield, Missouri for the game. That was impressive.

Today was the best Ohio crowd in Cleveland for ANY game...semis, finals, you name it. Simply amazing - and it put WMU to absolute shame.

I was told by the Marketing/Ticket Sales staff postgame that we have sold many more tickets for tomorrow...but I still agree that we'll be outnumbered. Akron simply has too much of an advantage being 30 min. down the road. I think the crowd should be close to 50-50 though, and I know we'll hold our own in the stands.

SO EXCITED...CAN'T WAIT!!!

I hope most of our fans find a way to sit in adjacent sections. Were had 4-5 sections up top that were mostly full and 2 down low that were packed. But there were a lot of Bobcats that were spread out around the arena.

Do that, and just take over the whole arena.
We have more alumni in the Cleveland area than Akron has fans!

I'm not worried if Akron has more fans there than us.  They are so much closer to Cleveland than us that it's to be expected, almost.  

The thing is, we will have a GREAT representation!  We will make our presence felt in the Q.

We might fill up the lower bowl tomorrow, which would be awesome.

I think some Bobcats took to lower bowl once Akron fans left for the night. If its 50/50 tomorrow it's easily 2/3 Ohio...we were muuuuuuuuch more vocal than Western, Kent or Akron fans in the semis.

I'm looking for the Cats G's to break down the Zips off the dribble. Attack the hoop and dish!

Find it hard to believe it was better then the '05 finals against Buffalo. They actually had to put the students in the upper level and we filled at least 3 sections.

The bottom and top behind our bench were pretty full and they put the students behind the basket this time.
 

VERY excited for tonight.  Akron always brings a great crowd, but if you take all the Bobcats from last night and add some we will give them a run for their money.

I've seen crazier things happen.
