Can You Believe This Sh@# !?

How much fun is this?  Love it.

All I know, is if we win the CBI I want a T-shirt, so someone better make one.

[greenjoe]

Nobody knows how to spell "CBI."

Imagine this sitting in a nice back lit trophy case.

[UNTLifer]

Had to bump this because this is some fun stuff.

The Pit was a hell of a place to be tonight!

I don't know about you guys, but this just had the feeling after the first two games like there was no chance today would be anything less than a convincing win.

Only thing that pissed me off tonight, besides seeing Ray Harper, was watching fans exit during the Fight Song.

I'm not quite there yet.  I go in to these games with the feeling of impending doom, 5 minutes in that gives way to "This can't be happening again," 10 minute mark feelings become, "Wow, this team is on a roll," and by halftime I am giddy with excitement.  The second half just becomes a how big of a margin can we win by and convincing myself we should be in the Sweet 16.

Admission: I start getting nervous in the second half when the leads have shrunk to around 15 which is ridiculous.

I was EXTREMELY confident during the JJ era any time we got on the floor with a fellow G5 and even some P5's (see Tech and OK-State games).   Still, I never had the feeling we were toying with the opposition.  Last night I had that feeling.  Every time JSU began to make a run we would bury a couple threes, Woolridge would take his man off the dribble and the lead would increase again.  And I saw more defense played in one game than I saw the whole Benford era.  

WB had better not break the bank paying Seth and the football staff, because McCasland will need to be compensated real soon.

Trying to wrap my mind around a team that would have this outside shooting with Tony Mitchell wondering around underneath

Is this the latest our BB team has been playing?

If you mean those heading down to the floor...yep...we do, but we are going to the front of the exit to high five and congratulate the players as they come around the arena. Not leaving...just “re-shuffling”.  :-)

[UNTLifer]

Nope. Saw people walking up the steps away from the court. Unless the team is walking around the concourse, these folks are out of there.

Just to be fair, it is after 9pm on a school/work night.  I had my 8 year old with me, and we bailed out of there so i could get him home, showered, and into bed for school the next morning.

This is exactly how i am, nervous in the second half!    As these last 2 games have played out we start winning and building leads! At UNT!!!   No lead is safe in my head I guess.  If it were any other team playing I would be calling it church with a 25+ point lead and less than 10 minutes to go....    UNT is playing?   No lead is safe... But damnit if this isn't ridiculously fun!  

 

I can't wait to get back into the Pit on Wednesday!

It will look great with the other hardware in our trophy case. ;)

[CMJ]

Pshhh...you don't wanna lessen your trophy case with the little ole CBI.

[UNTLifer]

Call me when you have done something in the last 50 years.

Ha.  I think you meant “wandering”, but “wondering” paints a funny mental image.

I hear ya.  It was after midnight by the time my 8th grader got in bed. But her momma was already asleep when we snuck into the house so we avoided trouble.
