It was amazing. It was deafening and not just in response to shots or specific plays but for whole possessions. It was real.

Amazing that they saved the best for last. Might not have been a top 25 team but I think that was easily as big a win. We took their best and still prevailed.

i almost feel sorry for Cal. They played great. We threw a ton of volume on those guys and they kept swinging. That last possession of theirs hurt my ears, at the same time i was screaming as loud as i could.

Simply incredible experience.

What I love best about the crowd this year is that it seems to finally understand that they can affect the outcome by cheering proactively, not just reactively. When the team was struggling at times in this game, the crowd didn't wait for the team to turn it around on its own, but rallied to encourage the players, and that fed into a positive loop.

I've been impressed by this as well. Especially in the three NIT games.

At one point Larry stood up and motioned the students to make more noise and they responded with the crowd joining in. Defeaning!

it was deafening Crazy loud. Cant imagine any sports event producing that much volume ever again. There is no way to describe it to someone who is not there.

Saw that. He knows how much it matters. Of course that was the possession they scored a three to go up one.

The last minute, and especially the last 30 seconds, of that game just became my new definition for mass insanity. Just amazing.

Very glad to hear this (pun intended). It did not come across as loud on my tv. Seemed very much louder during the LSU game and I was a little upset for the lack of noise. Maybe my ears are just plugged with the cold I am fighting.

Yeah. It seemed that way to me watching as well. Seemed quieter. I guess you really have to be there.

But then there's this:

Great video. Wish our kids could have gotten to shake hands with the Bears, instead of just the coaches. That was one great ball game.

Last two minutes volume was absolutely deafening. That was more of a Nic Moore storming than a court storming, but who is going to tell W no?
