Did we just go back in a time machine to Creighton in 2012, 2013, or the early-mid 2000s? Lower bowl is a sea of Blue.

Are they waiting for the Nebraska vs Iowa game to end or is it moved to another channel?

Todd Thomas did a series of trivia with an 80-year-old woman in powder blue and she ripped through each question. Love it!

When Indiana State made that 18-point comeback, that had to be the loudest Arch Madness has been since 2013 Creighton/Wichita final.

CBS finally switched over when it was 9-3 Drake. The B1G Title game going to OT was too much.

Anyhow, I can't believe Drake did it, much less back-to-back. I thought all season long we were going to lose on Saturday of Arch Madness. Going to have to work the transfer portal hard to replace Brodie but otherwise no reason we can't three peat next year.

In the interim, doing everything I can (granted social media won't do anything) to convince the committee to put Indiana State in too. Already looking forward to Drake-Indiana State games next year.

Not sure yesterday was louder than 2015 UNI-ISU/ or even 2019 UNI-Bradley. Both of those finals had better turnouts. Drake just does not travel.

Drake actually travels extremely well given the size of the general fan base and the fact that the tournament is a 6 hour drive away. Outnumbered by Indiana St yesterday but that's to be expected against a public school having their best season in a very long time with only a 2 and a half hour drive.
