Marquette/BYU: Yum Center Floor Failure?
Written by

It’s getting a little tight in Louisville, Kentucky as BYU is trying to mount a successful comeback against the Marquette Golden Eagles. While the lead is currently 12, the Cougars have already cut it to a six-point deficit once already. The question is, do they have another run in them, allowing them to close the gap completely?

While the game has been entertaining, the condition of the playing floor is getting just as much attention as the March Madness basketball. Even Verne Lundquist said something about the air time the towel guy is getting.

The floor in the YUM! Center is very moist. There is a joke in there somewhere.(image) 13 minutes ago via web ·  Reply ·  Retweet ·  Favorite · powered by @socialditto

Floor “slippery” at the KFC Yum! Center (more so than usual) Officials are looking at it.

Apparently, the floor was newly-installed by the NCAA, meaning there isn’t much they won’t screw up if you give them the room to do so.
