BOISE, Idaho -- Cornell and Ivy League officials were disappointed that Utah State lost, because they were counting on the Aggies' fans to cheer for the Big Red.

Cornell ended up giving the bulk of its ticket allotment to Utah State, a move that allowed the school to bring most of its student section.

Utah State fans pledged before the game to cheer for Cornell in exchange for the tickets, but most of the navy-and-white shirts vacated the building after the 58-57 loss to Marquette.
