Hey genius...remember the 06 game...#2 UConn vs. unranked MU...didn't rush the court then, DEFINITELY wouldn't rush the court tomorrow. We expect to win!


True, but I was at that game.    That game was during winter break and the turnout was weak at best.  That would've been a pathetic rush of the court

Seriously, PM me and we'll work out a wager.

+1. I'll put money on you not getting within 5 feet of the court much less on it.

Enough about us. I bet you all talk about no-hitters too...

That was a great court-storming by PC. A tad early, but cool to see.

I was totally OK with the Providence fans rushing the court.  They were unranked and beat the #1 team in the country for the second time in their program's history.  I think it was warranted.

I don't think it's warranted against UCONN b/c UCONN is only #2 and we are also a top 10 team.

They'll let us do it against Syracuse if we clinch conference. That's the only way. That's the way it should be. Seats instead of bleachers make it impossible for a good surge to push past security.

sorry for stating the obvious here, but whats stopping the lower bowl from rushing the court? say security all you want, but ushers and police are outnumbered 100:1, in the student section. should students rush the court tomorrow after a win? absolutely not. but if a motivated student section is determined to do it, nothing can stop them.

Except the students are all funneled into a small area, you can be a tough guy and say you have them outnumbered, but this isn't their first rodeo.

Are you guys really coming down on them for rushing the court?!?!?


Coming into the game, they were desparate for a quality win on their resume. All they just beat the number 1 ranked team, on senior night.  If ever there is a time to rush the court, I think that was it

Providence beating the No. 1 team in the country is one of the rare examples where it is totally OK to rush the court. If you can't do it then, when would you do it? It's a major upset that will do wonders for their chances of sneaking into the NCAA's.

Be happy for those kids. They'll always remember that night.

My only problem with PC's storm is that it was about 2 seconds early.  So -1 to them for not waiting for an official end and -100 to the Dunkin Donuts security for still being ineffectual at best.
