“We Want UCONN.”

[REB1094]

Good. I love it! This should be one of the best games in the tournament this year. Every college basketball fan should want and be excited for this matchup

Wow, it's so weird that this random Illinois guy knows Deepster.

 

[dogpause]

I love playing against really good teams. Bring it on.

His friend obviously is a dork. Lives in Connecticut and didn’t know UConn was #1.

I'm trying to follow the logic here.

So most people look down on the school and go elsewhere (maybe true), but we have a big alumni base, but everyone else doesn't care?

lol it's almost literally the exact opposite. We have more non-alumni fans than maybe any other school.

Whoa, no school comes close to Notre Dame's non-alumni fanbase.

Duke beats us on that. Gonzaga has climbed up that list as well. But yeah.

This is very clearly someone who went to college or last interacted with the process in the mid-to-late 90s. By the time I graduated high school (2002) the perception was starting to change. It was true at one point, but not really any more.

Some people don’t follow basketball until the tourney plus there’s a lot of jealousy out there.

People forget that ultimately college basketball is a relatively niche interest. That "niche" support in Connecticut is very high relatively to the rest of the country (probably below only the states of North Carolina, Kentucky, and Kansas, maybe Indiana). But the nature of that sort of fandom is that normies don't always know these things.

It just blows my mind that people don't understand how UConn is Connecticut's "pro" team.

Everyone in the state is a UConn fan because UConn is the entity that uniquely represents all of us. It's one of our main sources of pride, whether we attended the school or not.

Because they don't know what they are getting into. It's bliss, I hear.

Ron Howard: “As it turned out, they did not, in fact, want UConn.”

 

[Karmacop]

How’d that work out for them?

 

[BarkingDog]

They thought they could win the game. They could not.

lmfao! This really sums up this tournament. Bro, i am seriously laughing as im typing this. Dude this captured Uconn perfectly.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

I still have a feeling they're feeding us false intel, trying to get us to believe something that makes no logical sense, just to catch us in a trap.

I think the 3 of us plus Deepster are enough to designate Chong Li this teams’s official mascot

 

[OceanDoggie]

30-0​

 

[Rocktheworld]

Man I was talking sooo much ish to the loser IU people around us

 

[Waquoit]

They lost because of the refs. Just ask them.

 

[blkknight1]

Didn't score for nearly an hour of real time.
