Not even close - the apathy toward LSU hoops takes more than solid road win crack - in fact much more. Hell, I'd be willing to bet a large chunk of students and casual fans may not even know we won yesterday.

I’ll be there and I think it’ll be a great crowd. Any time we have a chance to beat KY it’s a big deal. 8:00 start time might be an issue for the geezers but this team deserves support Wednesday night.

I am going… sellout vs actual attendance is very different

Home games vs Kentucky are usually the most well attended games. UK brings a lot of fans too. I don’t think it will be a sell out, but it might be their biggest crowd of the year

For a Wednesday night game against an unranked opponent on the road nowhere near Lexington?

UK has a giant fanbase that aren't all living in Kentucky.

Won’t be a sellout (or even close). But should be one of the better crowds of the season. For better or worse, Kentucky is the “Alabama” of SEC basketball. More casual fans show up when they are in town than any other teams. And there are often several Kentucky fans in attendance too.

Bigger question is do the students show up? Understandably, there as been a ton of apathy from them. But coming off a big win, against UK, with nothing else happening on a Wednesday night, should give them reason to show up.

IF LSU somehow beats UK then the next game vs Miss. St could be a really good crowd. Saturday night game where football is fully over, March is nearing (CBB’s month), and LSU would be coming off back to back wins over ranked teams.

Some season ticket holders have already given up on LSUMBB. I would expect a decent crowd, maybe 9500 to 10K. My wife and I will be there as usual.

I got 4 tickets yesterday. Taking my daughter. I’ll figure out how to get to work by 550 am on Thursday.

A lot of UK fans travel with the team because they can’t get tickets into Rupp

Oh, I'll be there too, I always am. And I do think it will be the biggest crowd of the year, it almost always is when Kentucky comes to town.

I'd say 9 or 10K, Cats will probably have 5 or 600 in the stands as well.
