You're right, B. I thought the student section was great tonight as well. Kudos to the entire crowd too, I think everyone was rocking the BC tonight.

Student Section was great tonight for a Tuesday night game where a lot of students made lame-ass excuses for not going. The section had a good crowd and it was loud for most of the game, especially at times when we went on runs! Great effort MU students!!!

[SonofPianoMan]

We sit directly across from the student section and we were commenting that this was definitely their loudest game of the season. Very impressive. Now to really end the regular season, make us forget about this game and bring it for  ND

[MUWarrior11]

For what its worth, I thought the student section was great (and yes, I am a student...and perhaps a bit biased.) But I want all you alums to know...some students still do it right...my friend and I were standing in the upper deck all game...cheering for our Warriors. And we ended the night at Hegartys (which sadly, is closing in June..), and we closed the bar at 2:15.

So I just want you to know some MU students still go "all-in" for their Warriors, even if we do have mid-term exams tomorrow at 9:00 A.M.

This has been a great ride. We all need to stop and realize how much this season has exceeded our expectations....we are dancing, Baby!

that's what I'm talking about MUWarrior. let's bring it in full force on Saturday against the domers! I fu**ing HATE Notre Dame!

Hegarty's is closing in June? Sad to hear - another one bites the dust. I took a bus driven by Big Jim to a MU-ND game in South Bend back in the day. We had a keg in the back and stopped at every rest area along the way. Good times...

What does it take to get a good student section for once?

[connie]

Big props for the students last night.  Well Done!

whoa, whoa, whoa..... Hegarty's is closing? why in the world is that happening

Baby blue looked great on TV. Wish I had the volume. Good work, students!

Kind of spur of the moment.  We all knew via the e-mail before the game that the first 4,000 students got a free t shirt.  Didn't know it was baby blue.  But once they got through the lower bowl the baby blue-out was on, I guess.

[StillWarriors]

The blue did look great. In my opinion, a give-away is the only way to go if you are going for an effect like that, at least at MU. To the folks that went to the Cuse-Nova game, did they give away the orange shirts? That whole stadium was orange. Impressive.

[JWags85]

I remarked that the crowd was kind of weak pre-tip and during the intros.  Sometimes that student section gets really loud during intros and you get chills.  However, once the game started, they got loud.  Really solid crowd overall, definitely a fun atmosphere.

i think they gave out small orange towels, and i believe boeheim and his wife paid for them

I felt like everyone was watching that sweet Al video they were playing during U2.

Tragic, I know. 

I heard that the entire building was bought out and that modifications would be made and Hagerty's spot will not be renewed.   
I could be mistaken, however.

[LovinCrowder]

I thought the crowd did a great job last night but it should be like this at every game.....the players feed off of this....I was glad to see it because I feel that the entire area outside of the student section this year has been a little lame - but this has been discussed ad nauseum so I will let that comment rest.

On another note, I did notice that everyone got an orange t-shirt at the Tennessee/Kentucky game last weekend.  I think that looks so impressive on tv.  Outside of the media guide book the season ticket holders got, there hasn't been any other giveaways this year.... I miss the bobbleheads to be honest with you....

[MU gimp ONE]

I have been very critical of the student section this past year, however last night they brought the energy.  It wasn't full by any means, but the kids that showed up were very into the game. 

Kudos on the multiple Karen Sypher chants... by far the loudest and most together the student section has been for any chant in a long time.  and right when we needed a boost in the 2nd half... there it was again.  i laughed everytime knowing that Pitino will be reminded every road game of how much of a trashball he is.

[TallTitan34]

This would make for a great bobblehead:

[Sir Lawrence]

I agree that the student section was superb last night.  The rest of the place was way better than normal too.  I was concerned that with the week day and late start that the "working folk" wouldn't come out, but they did, and they were loud, and often on their feet.

R.A. Smith, a/k/a "Jump Around Guy" did a nice job shifting his routine to the student section.

Bought out by Marquette, for the sake of accuracy.

The student section was 100% AWESOME at the game last night.  Kudos to all!!  Keep it up for the next game.... let's beat ND!

GO MARQUETTE!!!!!
