I was at the UNC game.   Heartbreaker.   Possible program changer if MU would have pulled it out.

Was Joe Wolf on that UNC team?  That was the game changer.

I feel like wardle scored 100% of our first half points in that Cincy loss. Can anyone verify?

Was there as well.  MU had the game in control.  Some bad unforced TOs.  Ugh.

Wardle scored a bunch in the first half against Cincy. You might be thinking of the game against DePaul. Had all 19 of MU's first half points.

First game my parents ever took me to, I was 4 months old...

I like your thinking.  Beating them twice on boosts our ncaa seeding!   

If we win , me and Newsie will be rappelling on to the court from the U-line suite.

Do you work at U Line?

That was the DePaul game when they had Quinton Richardson. I was at that one.

What are your best memories from that one? Scoring a little breast in the restroom during a time-out?

[oldwarrior81]

Cinci jumped to a 23-2 lead with MU making 1 of their first 14 shots.   MU trailed 39-12 at half.

Wardle scores 24 in the second half to bring the final margin down to 12.

Will be close to a packed house for #1 at home, regardless of whether they lose Wednesday to X this is storm worthy in my book. It's been years since we had a good storm at the BC, at least 10 if memory serves me. Cincy in 03?

Memory so hazy, but wasn't it '02 when Cinci was #4 and we were unranked?  I do still remember my conversation with the usher.

"We're going to storm the court"

"I know"

I remember being SO excited for that game as a student. The cheerleaders handed out confetti to throw when MU made their first FG and the students were ready and into it. Unfortunately, the confetti-toss lost some of its effect when MU finally scored to cut the score to 20-2.

Memory so hazy, but wasn't it '02 when Cinci was #4 and we were unranked?

Students stormed the court upon beating #4 Cincy in '02 but, IIRC, there was also a court-storming in '03 when beating Cincy to clinch the ConfUSA title.

Heck yeah, book it!

Newsie,

Looks like they changed us to the Coors Light Silver Bullet suite.  Just got the e-mail. 

Goods news is that it takes less rope to rapel to center court from there.
