Good game UConn...

I'd have to watch again but I think many of these uncontested layups were due to spurts of horrific transition D. And that Joe Jackson somehow has an extra gear beyond even Boat.

lol, There is nothing intellectual about memphisroar.com

You'd rather send them to the nut house, MT.org?? Haha

At least they don't charge a fee

I am guessing he has a ton of experience coming over to another team's board after a loss...

Spending your Saturday night trolling a uconn and Memphis discussion on a uconn fan board? Sweet life bro

The first time we lose to Memphis all of our amicability towards them is gonna evaporate. UofM is a great and intelligent poster but if we're gonna be the two tough teams in the conference going forward I don't see how it can't turn into a UConn/Georgetown Uconn/Pitt situation (I don't see the 'cuse feelings ever happening again). Eventually we might even hate them. Not if we keep beating them though.

They'll beat us a fair share. They get too much talent not to.

Remember, UofMemphis is one poster. I'd wager a lot of Memphis fans already hate us after two wins here. Some may still be annoyed we got the 1 seed in 2009 over them as well.

What's up Bounce. Long time no see. But bro, there's a little problem with your comment and I just wanted to help you out a little...
See, we (Memphis) were 16-5 against you in the 80's
7-14 against you in the 90's (our worst decade in program history)
And 5-5 in the 2000's. Your win over us this year was the first since 2005.

That's 28-24 against you since 1980
Meaning we've beat you more that you've beat us
Not exactly your "whipping boy"
I'm guessing from your comment that you may be a little younger. Because it's apparent you missed the absolute drummings we put on you year after year in the 80's. Some got painful to watch. But anyways, this is a UCONN board. This thread is UCONN-Memphis, so let it be so.

If we could create an atmosphere of rivalry in the AAC it can become a pretty good conference. It also helps our program.
So feel free to duke it out.
It's those ACC vs B1g guys going at each other like they rented the board for their exchanges that have worn me out.

Start off with saying congrats on a big win over the Tigers. I can't say as though I watched much of the game (family outings sometimes get in the way of enjoying a good basketball game). However, if you read the Memphis board, y'all stole one from us with the foul disparity. Don't know if that's the truth or typical fan reaction when your team loses. Married into the Tiger family, so not blinded by blue blood. Must say that it is enjoyable to see another teams fan base passionate about their team. Years in conference USA have had us begging for this kind of competition.

Close games with teams of history and talent such as between my Tigers and all of y'all's Huskies has the making of a solid foundation for a basketball conference. Ignore the hatred from the the blinded tiger fans. While everyone wants to be in the big money conference, the fact that we can be in a conference with teams that will constantly push us, will only mean good things for us and the conference as a whole. Here is to the beginning of a good rivalry.

Pas. Hope some of you can make it down to the Fed Ex Forum for what is shaping up to be an electric conference tournament.
