Maryland rushes the court in win against Duke

[uchusky32]

My boss is a Maryland grad and of course had to send pictures of Maryland rushing the court with a win. I told him at Uconn we don't rush the court because winning is expected. Damn tough loss today!

Well, in their defense, Dook had won 12 of the last 13 vs MD.

 

[uchusky32]

What was I supposed to say?

 

[B1GEast]

Good for them, glad they beat dook.

 

[uchusky32]

Good for them, glad they beat dook.

Me.too. Hate Dook careless about Maryland!

Ok St. Rushed the floor after beating unranked OU today.

What was I supposed to say?

You could try; "congrats, nice win"

 

[uconndoit]

I say rush the court whenever the mood strikes. It's a great experience, it's fun, they're young and it's just a basketball game FPS - have at it!

 

[phillionaire]

isn't it the last time they play each other and aren't they really big rivals?

 

[Bryan Lord]

Act like you've been there in the last 7 years...oh wait.

 

[Palatine]

Rushing the court show enthusiasm and passion for the basketball program.

Sitting on your hands show nothing.

 

[Robertelamin]

Maryland sports have been bad for a while. They had a mini run a few years ago with Vasquez but this is their biggest win in years. They also rushed the court when they beat NC State...

I could not care less about when or why people rush the court. Is it a little embarrassing when you beat a team out of the Top 2 or 3? Yes.

Did the students have fun, and were they enthusiastic? Yes.

The second question is all that matters. You won't see me rush the court, but I'm almost 30 now, and I don't care what 18-22 year-olds do.

 

[Bryan Lord]

Yea to be honest I don't really care when or why fans rush the court. It's the easiest way to get on ESPN

 

[tzznandrew]

On a different note: Miami has a 3 game lead now on Duke. While they have one more game left against Duke (in Cameron), they have no one else difficult on their road schedule (or home, really, either, given the quality of the ACC). They pretty much have this wrapped up barring a disaster.

With a little thought I'd give the student body slack if their program lost 100 games in a row and then broke that streak with a win. No matter what the ranking is you storm the court.

I went to this game last night. Always fun to watch Coach K and Duke lose. Got to say the Comcast Center is one of the best atmospheres in college hoops. That place was rocking last night - loud!

Trust me, Miami has no chance in Cameron, Miami's top scorers will be in foul trouble before the start of the 2nd half.

Good to know MD's student section has more creativity than Randy's playbook.

It's not embarrassing at all. It was shown on ESPN. It showed genuine enthusiasm. It looked and sounded great. Good for them.

You can now return to watching Golf.

To be fair, Duke was number 2, so I'm with you. If you rush the court when you beat number 11...

Well according to the Dook coach, North Carolina is their rival and
"I have a great deal of respect for Maryland. If it was such a rivalry they'd still be in the ACC. Obviously they don't think it's that important or else they wouldn't be in the Big Ten." Nice little temper tantrum there Mike.

This is awesome! Would be nice if the lethargic Uconn students of "the present" took a look at this and realized how terrible they are. I love the way the Maryland Students are on the sides as well as the ends of the courts. That move could could easily change the atmosphere at both Gampel and the XL.

The party spilled outside and lasted into the night with a bonfire started by the University and the students closing down a road.

Seeing that video the fans won the game. The 6th man in this case brought enough energy to score at least 6 points, and certainly responsible for the 2 point margin. Hell the Wizards may have lost in that game environment. That's why I love college b'ball.
