New Scoreboard at Koch Arena

[C0|db|00ded]

That's a great capital investment by the city of Omaha. Nebraska fans are going to love it! If Omaha keeps this up, Nebraska is going to start playing more and more of their games at the Missing Link. That might force BJ and the motocross to start combining their events as doubleheaders due to a lack of rentable space...

Looks kind of small

That's exactly what I was thinking. Why is it so small?

Yup, just another perk of renting as opposed to owning. You get $6 million dollar scoreboards and first option at NCAA tournament seats when the tourney comes to town every few years.

I think it's great that the citizens of Bugaha get to watch multiple NCAA tournament games when their location is selected. God knows they've never been able to travel and watch one of their hometown teams play in multiple games...

I was thinking... now that BJ is getting a paycheck from the Big Priest, do you think they could afford to build their own place now and have games on campus like a real college? Maybe they could just demolish a bit of the slum that surrounds their school and build a fine arena on it?

Cross your fingers it's the first weekend!

Why are there Creighton fans still here?

Are they already getting shunted as the Evansville of the Big East?

Although if it was the second weekend, it might be the first time fans in Omaha have ever actually seen it.

Said no major college sports program, ever.

I get your bitterness. Really, I do.

I mean look - a WSU fan starts a "look at me" thread to brag about your new scoreboard. Then, much to a WSU fan's chagrin, someone posts a story about Creighton's (the school which WSU fans stew about over all others) new scoreboard, which dwarfs the one WSu just bought. To make matters worse, the new WSU scoreboard is close in size to the scoreboard that the CenturyLink Center is replacing. Plus, neither Creighton nor the taxpayers of Omaha had to pay one cent for the thing.

In reaction, you go in another thread and post that no one could have ever seen the Big East split coming, when pretty much everyone with a pulse already predicted exactly that years ago.

I'd probably be bitter too.

I don't think anyone here is bitter over a scoreboard.

I do think somebody here is bitter over postseason success.
