I've tried getting tickets but cannot get through to NU at all.

I've called an emailed the ticket office every day as instructed by our athletics website: https://nuhuskies.com/news/2019/3/17/men...ament.aspx

They said tickets go on sale at 8pm Sunday so I called and emailed them at that time. Nobody has responded to any of my inquiries. I don't want to go and pay 4x as much to sit in the nose bleeds with a bunch of random Kansas and Auburn fans. Anyone have any ideas?

Every time I call the ticket office nobody answers. I've left my name and number to call me back each time but they never have. I've emailed them too. All I need is one ticket. This is really frustrating.

Looks like there is a link to a portal to buy tickets on the website. It says they are sold out. I am 99% sure that link was not on that article on Sunday. I guess I won't be able to go.

STL I've been to a regional and three Final Fours bought tickets outside of the arenas for my wife and I and never paid more than face value. When it gets within a couple of hours of game time everyone just wants to dump their extras and go inside and enjoy the atmosphere.

Thanks for the info. I would like to sit with NU fans. I don't even know what section we'd be in. It's annoying that I've called and emailed the ticket office on both Sunday and Monday but they haven't responded to me.

How about emailing coach Murphy? Coach Fogel offered me tickets to the Maui Classic and when we went up to his room at the Sheraton he pulled a stack of tickets that was at least two inches thick. Just ask him if he has access to tickets and offer to pay for them.

STL,

Email a.inman@northeastern.edu. Alex is pretty good at getting back to you. You can also try Zac White too (z.white@northearern.edu)

Hopefully it’s not too late.

Thanks, I've emailed Alex but I'll give Zac a shot.

Got a ticket. Looks like I'm going to Utah. Thanks to Alex at the ticket office.

Awesome!

Enjoy!

Looks like $$ coming in on NU (or at least people don't like Kansas). Line opened at NU +8.5 but now it's down to NU +6.5

Wow. I guess the days of us being twenty point dogs (like against UNC) are over. We were a 16 seed that year. That's a big move in the line. Maybe Lawson got hit by a tractor.

Maybe it has to do with the rumor that Self was leaving to coach the Bulls. A rumor like that is a distraction.

Also this is not the strongest of Kansas squads. Your style can definitely give them issues.

Also ESPN has a nice shout out to you guys yesterday round 5/5:30 on their all day bracket deal they did. Had Calhoun on and ended up talking about NU for 5 or so minutes.

NCAA presser with Occeus, Vasa and Coen on Wednesday ...

https://kuathletics.com/news/2019/3/19/m...stern.aspx is Kansas's preview. They have the longest active streak of being ranked at 200 weeks, with North Carolina second with 100. They have longest ever streak of consecutive tournament appearances with 30. Dedric Lawson is tied for seventh with 20 double-doubles, and Cacok got mentioned for having the most, albeit conferences weren't listed so you couldn't tell that Cacok was in the CAA with Northeastern. They have the third most tournament appearances, third most games, and fourth most wins. In all three of those, Kentucky is first and North Carolina is second. Duke has fewer appearances and games than Kansas with more wins. Kansas has an .818 winning percentage under Bill Self. Coen has a record of 224-196, and Kansas mistakenly made him sound better by saying 224-96.

The last time Kansas was a 4 seed, they lost to 13 seed Bradley in 2006. That was an upset, but nothing compared to George Mason making the Final Four.

Kansas shoots okay and has more turnovers than assists. http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketb...s-jayhawks has a 30 second video titled "Jayhawks are just average."

To see who you play next if you win, 12 seed New Mexico State was up 14-8, but 5 seed Auburn now leads 25-19. In general, I would rather New Mexico State win, but I picked Auburn to win today and beat Kansas. I'll be rooting for Northeastern both because I root for CAA teams and because of my bracket. If you play Auburn, either I will get that Round of 32 game right or hardly anybody will.

Every real sports fan knows that rooting hard for a team CAN affect the outcome. Glad to have you aboard!

Less than 5 minutes to tipoff. Go Huskies!
