BU Crowds?

[it's boogie time]

Think they have stopped the commercials also correct? I also would like to see a new intro as far as the video goes....its served its purpose and most have seen it. Its also a bit long IMO. Its NOT bad though and I like what they have done.

The commercials except for halftime have been gone for awhile.

How 'bout a new intro on Wednesday night with just BU/ISU highlights?

Unfortunately being in Texas I cannot attend the games but listening on the internet last night it seemed to me that the crowd did a great job of picking the guys up when WSU made their huge run in the 2nd half. It could have just been the way it was miked but I would guess the mikes are usually in pretty much the same place each game. This one just sounded different to me.

On another note. Listening to Jim Les on the post game show was alot like listening to Avery Johnson of the Mavericks. They use alot of the same catch phrases and terminology that is a bit different from most coachspeak I hear. Must be because they were both point guards.

BU crowd STILL plays to the game..IOW when we are hot like the first half its nuts. Got scared during the WSU comeback and we sat on our hands a bit too much.

Overall though it was great. BU could still do some things to keep it going though. Thank goodness they stopped the Dry cleaning debacle...YIKES.

We need some new gimmicks during timeouts though. Whatever happened to the Pizza delivery run up to the top.....

More band.......and a B...........U chant matching up one side of the arena vs the other side.

The intro is awesome. i get chills everytime I see it. I don't think it needs a change at all.

You misssed a good one Don.....the first half the crowd was rockin. Got a bit nervous during the WSU run but the fans started to get back into it.

WHen Will and DA hit their daggers...the place was up for grabs.

Do they still have the 2 little kids trying to put on a uniform and make a basket during a timeout? That really takes the crowd out of the game. Harrassing an opponent's mom is something the students shouldn't be proud of. GO BRAVES. Fill that place up Wednesday.

I LOVE the intro... though I have seen it many times, I still love it. They did trim it down from the first few games. I think it is under or right around 3 minutes. I know some people who just recently got a chance to get to a game and take some of their kids - so you never know when someone is seeing it for the first time (or coming back a second time and wanting to see it again).

DRU - I like your idea. There are so many great clips from the War on 74... especially love the one where Les and an ISU player keep passing the ball back and forth as they are heading into a time-out.

dogs-- I think you are confusing "corilon" with "Corleone" when you refer to corilon as "Don".
