Found out yesterday that I won the student lottery to purchase tickets to the UCONN-Duke game at the IZOD Center on December 18th and picked up my ticket this morning. I'm incredibly excited to be one of the select few chosen to cheer on our Huskies against one of UCONN's most hated rivals of all time the Duke Blue Devils. I've never been to a game of this magnitude before and I'm absolutely pumped about it! This is arguably our best non-conference game in the past 5 years. I'm seriously considering making a sign to bring the game and I wanted to float some ideas past some fellow Boneyarders and see what you guys thought. If you wanted to post your own ideas that would be much appreciated too!

Emeka was better- Short, sweet, and to the point. This is obviously a reference to Emeka Okafor whose cousin Jahlil Okafor plays for Duke

No need to get wordy. A giant blow-up of the Sellers/Laettner photo should convey the appropriate message.
Or...

A simple "F cu k Dook" should suffice. Or "Du ck F uke" if you prefer.

I like your first suggestion, "EMEKA WAS BETTER" really sends a message that can resonate regardless of the what the score is at that time. Reminding their fans of Emeka's domination of them in 2004 should be nice, but something tells me a number of their fans will have no idea what its talking about

How about a sign that says, "Duke and Okafor, who's your daddy?" with a picture of Emeka in a UCONN uniform holding the national championship trophy in one hand and a baby with Jahlil's face in the other. Throw in a small Senhor T. hidden somewhere for mojo and you've got poster gold.

Good to hear you're not selling your ticket. I'm a student too and there's a bunch of a**holes just trying to make a profit. I bought my tickets in July and I'm still pumped as fuq

The school needs to start a poinpoint system where you gets points for actually attending sporting events. Then those points determine who gets the tickets.

You gotta have some clever text with a picture of ok4 and the trophy in hand. Maybe something like "Okafor? That sounds familiar" or just Emekas better with the pic of the trophy

It's simpler than that. Tie the ticket to the students ID, either you use it or return it for another student to use.

Wouldn't dream of selling this ticket, I think it's absolute BS that people would take the chance away from a fellow Husky just to make a quick buck it's honestly disgusting. I also think that if it's game day and you're a student that's still trying to sell your ticket then there's a special place in hell for you with the Blue Devil. Just give your ticket away so someone that wants to go to game can go instead of holding your ticket out of spite because you couldn't get top dollar for it. That is the reason why the house isn't always packed and since the game is at the IZOD Center it's especially important to have as many fans at that game as possible!

How about this?

Not camera friendly enough, but I love this everytime I see it.
In college versus NOVA i went with the simple

Ray Allen > Allen Ray
"Emeka > Jahlil" would be perfect.

"Our Okafor is better than yours" would be okay as well.
