Tarheels at Spartans at Ford Field.

Lots of people expected. Floor maker in Dollar Bay, Michigan is 5 miles from my house.

Prolly, so.
...Even if they were healthy. ...Even if Hansbrough doesn't play.
Nice floor, though.

I had the same thought. Burr's shoes have a lot of white. Just curious what shoes they are wearing.

Hard to tell. I like a little white, but that looks odd.

Ford field looks very empty. Not a lot of fans at the game.

Wingtips?

Has the NCAA approved wingtips for officals? Or was that the TV lights glaring on patent leather?

There were 25K plus at the game.....I agree though, it looked fairly empty because it seats over 70K and those wide angle shots made it look cavernous. Wonder how good those upper level seats are? We'll see how many folks they stuff in there for the NCAA Championships later in the season......

Just me, but Burr and Welmer looked like two old retirees mall walking with those shoes. I guess I'm old school, but my first thought was Burr forgot his shoes and hit Walmart on the way to Ford Field.

I noticed the same thing during the Old Spice "Classic" in Orlando. It's not as big a venue, obviously, but it looked like the place was empty.

Bottom line, the games make more money from TV revenue than from ticket revenue.

It reminds them which way they are supposed to run.

I'm pretty sure the BEST GAME played their, was the record setting Kentucky game. But that is just my opinion. There was no empty seats for that one..
