But experiencing two years of mediocrity was enough for me. I wanted that Pitt game so badly and when we won it, I wanted to let off 2 years of frustrations and my feelings towards Desmond Adedeji on ESPN. I'll stay in my seat if a we hand a certain school their asses on February 24th though...

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> I'm a lifelong Dayton fan and alum, but I admit to storming the floor for both Wright St wins over Butler last year. It's was fun.

I'm glad Dayton doesn't do it, though. Winning games over big teams at home is what Dayton does better than anything else. Beating Pitt was completely expected.

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> As a Dayton student, I was pissed when none of my fellow students followed my lead to storm the court against Pitt this year and fully blame them for the injuries and bad luck we've had the rest of the year!

What?
Exactly.

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Another-Failed-Tedford-QB: The only time I've ever stormed was in basketball, when ODU beat VCU to get into the tournament in 2005. That's when I decided the "if you get the auto-bid" rule should go in there. That one also qualified as "beat rival in OT", so it was solid.

Storming the Floor

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> I stormed the field after Cal miraculously beat Oregon in Eugene last Fall. I was actually pelted with footballs before I even made it to the endzone (where that idiot fumbled and secured our victory).

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Storming the Floor: I also didn't like playing Kansas (especially in football, where for whatever reason Mangino had Bd. Smith's number every year) but always think it's the most fun game of the year.

Turd Ferguson

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Lady Andrea: I live in Des Moines now. I'm originally from Indiana (hence my love for the Hoosiers, sorry). I moved to Algona in middle school. I've lived in Des Moines the last 5 years - 4 at Drake and this is my first year on my own.

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Turd Ferguson: Turd, nothing makes me run faster than a "you suck" "No, you suck!" argument between rivals. I fear the Missouri game every year, no matter the relative records (in any sport), and I'm not ashamed to say so.

Good luck! And yeah, "Heaven" is a great song. WHat I like about Iowa is that other than Iowa/ISU, everybody can pretty much all be fans of every team. We're a very lovey-dovey state.

And I'm not one of those bandwagon jumping assholes who makes it hard for me to get a good seat at the Knapp Center. Until I graduated last May, I'd only missed a handful of games in 4 years.

Andrew

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @TheJizzone:

I absolutely couldn't believe that call (I really try to be as unbiased as possible when Purdue plays MSU). But, consider the following statistics (with the game played at Mackey:

Purdue shot very poorly (38% from the floor, 27% from 3-point range), got called for more fouls, and took/made fewer free throws. That win was all about the absolute defensive smackdown that the Boilers put on the Spartans.

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Lady Andrea: "The Silver Goblet" The school's trying to do away with it, but the alumni love it, and they teach it to all the Student Alumni (the Alumni Association's bitches, basically, and a super fun club to be in) and tell us to go teach it to everyone else. We also are the only students that know the alma mater, and the alumni love getting us drunk at half time and making us sing. One of the reasons I ended my cheer career was so I could join in the festivities...

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> Last times my school stormed the floor/pitch:
Basketball: 2006, v Kansas (the Moody game, and also the night everything came crashing down)
Football: 2003, v Nebraska (first time Mizzou had beaten them in God-knows-how-long...it was cold, rainy, a full house and everyone was drunk and carrying hacksaws under their coats, so they could cut off a piece of the goalpost).

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Storming the Floor:

I nearly walked into Scot Pollard at one of the gyms. Embarrasing I know since the guy is 7 foot and how could you miss him...I did.
Of course that doesn't compare to the time I nearly ran over Keith Langford.

tater

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> @Andrew: that fits the rule. Didn't that snap one of the worst streaks in college basketball? Also, it was embarrassing for us.

@kataroo_kangaroo: we have one too. "In Heaven There Is No Beer." It rules.

]]> <![CDATA[If You Kids Scuff That Floor, Tuition Shall Be Raised]]> I rushed the floor when Drake beat Iowa last year. That was a big deal. You can see the back of my head in the picture in the Register next to Klayton.

With the way Drake's playing this year, storming the floor now would be unseemly.

We were so close to the players that more than one student going to get a hotdog could be mistaken for "storming the floor." And, the same thing happened after every game- we'd just cut across the court because it was the closest way to get to the bars.
