Pac 10 Cheap Ticket Alert: Washington State Cougars vs. Arizona State Sun Devils

If you are a Pac 10 basketball fan, I have great news for you! Ticket King has cheap Pac 10 basketball tickets including $5 tickets to Thursdays Washington State Cougars vs. Arizona State Sun Devils game. Be at Friel Court Pullman by 7pm to see this great game, with ticket prices so low you have no excuse not to go. Calling all Washington State basketball fans, show up and support your team!

I would love to go, but airfare just isn’t in the budget this week so I will be on the couch watching No.19 Georgia Tech (16-5, 4-3 ACC) play No. 9 Duke (17-4, 5-2 ACC), I am pretty sure that Duke Basketball will rock the house, but you never know, Georgia Tech is hungry for an upset and that is why I love college basketball!

Big Ten Network Game Alert: Iowa at Michigan State

Since I was born and raised in the Big Ten, I follow those teams the closest. I am thrilled that Comcast resolved its differences with the Big Ten Network so I can watch games I really care about on a regular basis. Last night was Iowa Hawkeyes at Michigan State that started right after dinner.

Ticket King had $5 tickets for the game – yes, 5 DOLLARS. If I lived in East Lansing, Michigan I would have scooped up the seats in a second. Is ticket scalping legal in Michigan? Even if it isn’t, you could buy the tickets for $5 and sell them at face value and make money. If I was a Michigan ticket scalper, I would have scooped up the $5 tickets and sold them on the street for a definite profit. Michigan State basketball fans are loyal and why wouldn’t they be? The Michigan State basketball team is AMAZING even if they did almost let Iowa back in the game.

No. 6 Michigan State remains unbeaten in the Big Ten beating Iowa 70-63 victory. I sure hope my Golden Gophers basketball team can knock them off of their pedastal!

Mountain West Conference: BYU Basketball On Top

Does anyone follow the Mountain West Conference? You should! Number 13 in the polls is Brigham Young University. Maybe BYU should be my dark horse in the bracket this year …I know - too early to be thinking about March Madness, I just can’t help myself.

Brigham Young (3-0, 18-1)
Colorado State (2-1, 11-6)
Utah (2-1, 9-8)
New Mexico (2-2, 16-3)
UNLV (2-2, 14-4)*

San Diego State (2-2, 13-5)
TCU (2-2, 9-9)
Wyoming (1-3, 8-10)
Air Force Falcons (0-3, 8-8)

*remember when the UNLV Rebels were the team to beat?

Hot College Basketball Game Alert: Clemson Tigers at Georgia Tech

Hot Hot Game tomorrow night No. 17 Clemson Tigers at No. 19 Georgia Tech. BE THERE!

I can not believe that we still have tickets for this hot game, but we do. Check our web site - $5 will get you in. You can't buy Georgia Tech Basketball tickets cheaper anywhere else.

If I could afford to fly to Georgia for the day I absolutely would. Instead I will watch the game on ESPN. I am a closet Clemson fan so I will be quietly rooting for the Tigers and I may just pick them to go all the way this year in the Big Dance...we will have to see...I suppose it is a bit early to be thinking about my March Madness bracket, but it is never too early to think about buying college basketball tickets!
