UNC storms the court after win over Duke.

[Palatine]

Good for them. The students are having their fun.

Best part, Dickie V didn't like it. LOL!!!

I'm sure this upsets the Boneyard contingent of wet blanket Huskies fans. Not me. I thought we should have stormed the court tonight in Philly!!!

You're the guy who always yells, "In the hole!" when Tiger is mid-swing in the tee box on a par 5, aren't you?

 

[Askgreek]

Pathetic...I know Roy Williams is as old as yoda and that their program is not improving, but geez, this was just plain sad for such a storied program.

Was forced to watch some of it when they switched feeds and at halftime, but wasn't going to turn the channel. Really happy Dukie was crushed.

Every student who stormed the court received an A grade in their independent study class, "Basketball attendance and the human experience." The UNC players also received A grades for their role in the night's activities.

I'm glad college students are young adults looking for fun. college would be a sad place if we had some of the folks out here. Its a game, meant for entertainment, to enjoy and have fun about. you can be passionate, you can be loyal, you can be the biggest fan but never ever forget that at the end of the day its only a game meant to be fun and entertaining.

this whole act like you been there crap is for passionate losers who take the game more seriously than a game

RUSH THE COURT BABY!!!!!! Enjoy the night UNC students!

Additionally, Duke had 5 players with 4 fouls. I guess the flopping didn't work today. More hugs tonite for them tho...

“@slmandel: You storm the court, that means you're putting your opponent -- in this case your hated rival -- on a pedestal. FAIL!”

 

[CAHUSKY]

Storming the court after beating your arch rival who is ranked in the top 5 and you don't want college kids to storm the court ??? We should all be so lucky as to feel that kind of unbridled joy. these threads always make me crazy. Why don't people want kids to to express exuberance. I'm going to storm my bosses of office tomorrow just to piss of the curmudgeons on this board who apparently against enjoying success.

Give me a break. That was an embarrassment. UNC's fans just sent the message that they think Duke is the better team -- that beating them was something unexpected. "OMG we beat DUKE!!!1!!" Yeah, you should expect to beat Duke in your house when you're UNC. You have 5 National Championship banners hanging from the rafters overhead for crying out loud. Respect your team, man! Act like you expected them to win. That's how you support your team when you're a member of the elite. I'd give the fans a pass if UNC won on some miracle half court shot, but UNC literally dribbled out the clock to end this one.

Your life must not be fun. The kids rushing the court were between 18-22 and may not ever see UNC beat duke again. Enjoy it.

 

[VAHuskyFan]

Unless they're only going to live another year or two, I'm fairly certain those kids will see UNC beat Duke again.

And, if they do, I hope they express the same unbridled joy I feel about college basketball and mindlessly and joyfully sprint to mid court to celebrate the victory with their classmates.

 

[UConnNick]

Lame. IIRC, our students didn't even storm the court when we beat Syracuse last season, and we were going nowhere in the post season. It was also probably the last time we will play them for quite a while.

UNC students have stormed the court against dook after big wins at least 4 times in the last decade. In fact, for someone who thinks they know so much about what makes a storied program, you seem woefully uneducated on just how often UNC students have rushed the court after beating dook. They did it in the 90's... in the 80's... obviously a very notable game in the 70's...

Why it seems tons of UNC students go on to tell stories to their children about how much fun it was to rush the court after beating dook.

 

[johnhuskies95]

UNC stormed the court against us back in '04.

Nothing quite like middle aged men getting their panties in a wad over a bunch of college kids having innocent fun.

 

[mauconnfan]

Great week……BC beats the Nose Pickers and UNC beats Duke - now Duke lays a monster load on the Orange in that little crappy arena and all is well with the world!

 

[minidarren]

I hope the roof falls in on Saturday at that little dumpster. I don't want anyone killed. All fans are safe, just 14 players with twisted ankles for the next month and a half. Who will recover fully in April to go on and live entirely productive lives and watch UCONN hang its 4th banner.

armature night, act like you've been there before, please.

Autocorrect strikes again... Or were they giving away the part of an electric machine that includes the main current-carrying winding and in which the electromotive force is induced? As far as acting like you've been there before, I am of the opinion that this applies to players, not fans/students. And I am skeptical of the claim that storming the court says you think the other team is better. I think it says you think they are good but you are better.

Probably because UConn's been there before.

 

[Waquoit]

, act like you've been there before, please.

Why?

 

[amory]

Storming the court is dangerous. Enjoy it while it lasts, eventually someone's going to get trampled and the hammer will come down.

And fans of blue blood programs should not, under any circumstances, storm the court. It's stupid.

Sorry I see you've beaten me to my exact same immediate thought bigeastconf.
