Can't lie. If FSU offered and I had to choose between X and FSU based on women (assuming I have no pre-existing X-based fanaticism, which I do have) it's kind of a no-brainer. Plus, it's Florida.
Saying that, if I had had D1 ability and X offered to me, I would have signed as soon as possible. Can't imagine actually playing for the team I grew up loving so much.We've come a long way since my bench seat at the Fieldhouse!

The underdogs were 6-2 in the first round, with the biggest upset #8 CSU Bakersfield beating #1 California.
Now, if Greensboro can just beat Syracuse....he went up late, and I was already up there.

In California's defense, they were without two of their better players.

I was under the impression that Florida State sold out every game from Duke on. Like a lot of places, basketball is more of a restaurant than a religion. If it's good, then it's rammed full and everyone wants to be there, but if it's not no one really cares and people just stop going. I think a lot of so-called "football schools" are like that about basketball, and a lot of "basketball schools" are like that about football.
But, having said that, I can't seem to find their attendance figures."You can't fix stupid." Ron White

If you really want to find that answer, you can look at each game summary on ESPN under the schedule/score results for FSU.
I looked at the first home game after their Duke win (which wasn't sold out). It was against ND.
Attendance: 10,535, 84% of 12,500 capacity...he went up late, and I was already up there.

I thought that first round NIT games were played at the better seed's site.
If so, why did Indiana go to Georgia Tech?...he went up late, and I was already up there.
