Creighton Game Day Haiku Thread

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Day 2 BET
Two victories in one day
That is tonight's goal

Gotta finish up
Before midnight tolls: Minor
technicality

Those last 12 minutes
Were what we've been looking for
I starts with defense.

Gain & hold the lead
Then build it up with smart play
Offense & defense

8-man rotation
Even more if plausible
Growing champions

The ratchet tightens
and strengthens for ever more
It produces joy

 

[TheShot1990]

Hey, what’s your Ashworth?
It ain’t worth a dime because
Can’t get by my Hass

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Blue Jays: rats with wings
Creighton to Omaha, sad
Oh, what might have been

They run into a
March juggernaut, aiming for
Third year of glory

Oh, what might have been

Third year of glory

Out of surgery
and in tip top haiku form?
Nice contribution

 

[DALTX]

Creighton's energy
Wasted in double OT
With 10 seed DePaul

UConn keeps the pace
Ashworth's 25 in May
Huskies conquer Jays

 

[CL82]

Up next is Creighton.
Another team we split with.
Win the rubber match.

We both lost at home.
What happens in MSG?
Tonight we find out!

McDermott is tough,
But I like how we're playing.
Time for a statement.

Still waiting to see
Solo, AK, and Liam
All go off at once.

Is tonight the night
Where it all comes together?
The perfect Husky?

So, mush you Huskies
And beat these Creighton Blue Jays!
Move on to next game!

 

[Umami Zen]

Loose balls-Defend-Steal
Tourney defense is our deal
Huskies are for real!

 

[drayenob]

Picture a Husky
with a Bluejay in its mouth
Storrs south game over

 

[storrsroars]

I've been wondering
If there are any hardcore
Devout Catholic

Husky fans who have
Given up watching UConn
Basketball for Lent?

Religion can be
A good thing when you take it
In moderation

But for some of us
UConn hoops is our main faith
And all other teams

Are to be treated
As godless heathens to be
Vanquished from our Earth

And so It is with
Creighton tonight. We hold no
Animosity

Toward any Blue Jay,
But we must take their souls, their
Will, and their women.

 

[Husky Alien]

Did you hear the crowd?
MSG is our second
Home. Jay's will fly back.

 

[huskyjawz]

Late trains may be rough
But long drive home: Omaha
For loser Jays fans

 

[Son of Robert]

Quarterfinal game
UConn, hot as a pistol
ain't no stopping us

 

[huskyjawz]

Quarters, round two
UConn, hot as a pistol
ain't no stopping us

Your first line is four
How bout: "Quarters and round two"?
Does that work for you?

 

[Samoo]

I'm here for mojo
Huskies here for the trophy
Friday is our day

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Out of surgery
and in tip top haiku form?
Nice contribution

Alas, no, I was
Between cases, and knew that
Mojo was needed

I plan to watch the
Huskies uninterrupted
Tonight, with a beer

 

[Waquoit]

Two away defeats
Avenged. Payback third tonight
The fourth, tomorrow

 

[Ctedgeman]

Here little blue jay
I have got some treats for ya
Stomp stomp squish squish stomp

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Steven Ashworth asked:
Can you babysit my kids?
Nah, I'll be busy.

 

[J187Money]

Please, Please win tonight
Saturday at MSG
I want the Red Storm

 

[6in25]

Steven Ashworth asked:
Can you babysit my kids?
Nah, I'll be busy.

Wish I could give this
A laugh and also a like
Because it’s that good

The forty year old
Blue jay will still be tired
Friday of next week

Huskies lost in Storrs
But the real Huskies are here
Dogs win in Storrs South

Epic poetry
In haiku syllabic form:
Don't see that much here

Steve Weber, fondly
recalled 80s work buddy
would joke, on St. Pat's,

in best Irish brogue,
"I'm a good cat-lick, fodder"
Before each next drink

Of course, "Cath-o-lic"
is fully acceptable
in Game Day haiku

 

[jayteeman]

ohhhhhhhh-sooooolooooooo-mio
You become Karaban now
Make us so happy

This is not haiku
This is Game Day Haiku Thread
All posts in haiku

Could your instructions
have been given in haiku?
Today's AI fail

It's not too late, though
To write and post a haiku
And stoke the mojo

 

[Drame]

That was the cover art for my haiku:

Husky jaws crunch down,
Feathers lost in silent drift,
Bones now floss the fangs.
