I know UCONN has mass numbers there; OU apparently had about 3000 fans. The question is: how will the Tenn and Duke fans go? I suspect the Tenn fans will support OU, the Duke fans may support them or be neutral. The other fans will probably support the underdogs. I wonder if Sooner fans were able to pick up any more tickets from the Tenn or Duke fans, but I doubt it because most of those fans had to fly to San Antonio and won't get back until their scheduled flights.

Go SOONERS!!! Let's show the world the Big 12 rules!

Vickie, I think that OU (may) have a slight edge in people rooting for the team, at best.

UConn has been established as a superpower for some time now, and there will be lots of support for them in the Dome. We have the advantage of proximity, and the fact the quite a few other Big 12 fans probably grabbed tickets and intend to use them to root for another conference team; since I'm sure they planned nice spring vacations around these 3 days in March.

UConn fans are the overwhelming majority in, quite literally half of the Alamodome, and they are very, very loud. It would be extremely surprising if they don't have a big edge Sunday night. The other fans may be pulling for OU, but they aren't going to be going crazy the way the UConn fans surely will.
