The game discussion board on espn is getting pretty ridiculous. I didn't know Nebby basketball fans existed, but apparently they do and their arrogance is in full force throughout these posts.

ISU vs. NU discussion
By the looks of things, all 10 of Nebraska's basketball fans are in that thread stirring up trouble. They are probably most vociferous toward Cyclone fans because we're one of the few teams in the conference they feel like they can pick on.
I just hope we win, some way, somehow. Like this...

FUSKER FANS ARE MOSTLY TRAILER TRASH SO EXCUSE THEM PLEASE
I was at that game!! It was one of the craziest games I have ever been to. NU student section rushed the court after the play because they ruled the basket no good. The refs reviewed it, saw that it was good and my dad and I were jumping in each others hands because we were so excited...Quote:

Wasn't there another last second victory that we had at Nebraska? I was thinking that Jake Sullivan hit a 3 to win it but maybe I was thinking of something else.Quote:

I was ther when Moe IBa sent in a ringer to slug Hornecek in the back, and Grayer and the RINGER WERE TOSSED. Iba was fired at end of the season for starting BB season 2 weeks early after papering over the windows in the Women's gym and practicing over there. All reported in the Omaha World Herald.
Neb's own student newspaper turned him in to the NCAA and I was there the next season when all the seats behind both TEAMS WERE ISU FANS. Danny NEE's first season and the students were not supporting BB at all. The ticket office in Lincoln didn't know I was an ISU fan when I bought our tickets for the bus trip and gave us floor tickets behind the benches reserved usually for students. Johnny Orr was happy to see us. Danny Nee was very vocal on their radio station about how did all those ISU fans got those seats.
Give them a break. What else do they have to cheer for? Their whole reason for living just lost to Washington. Now they have to wait 8 months before anything in that state has relevance to anyone. Then add in that the Big10 gave them a screw job in scheduling so they'll probably suck in football next year also. At least let them have their fun now. They'll realize why they didn't pay attention to basketball soon enough.

The ball must've gone out of bounds and the clock didn't stop in time beforehand, causing the buzzer to go off when there were actually 0.8 seconds left. That's when the fans stormed the court, while the officials reviewed. They determined there was time left, and the PA announcer had to tell the crowd to clear the court. That's when the video started. When Rancik made the shot, there was little doubt it was in time.Quote:

Of course at the time, watching them storm the court without knowing what was going to happen, sucked. Must've been a prequel to the end of that season.

I'm taking a stab in the dark here, but maybe you're thinking of Jake's game-tying 3 vs. Rutgers in the NIT semifinal, sending it into OT? That was three seasons later, so maybe I'm wrong, but I can't recall other Sullivan buzzer-beaters off the top of my head.Quote:
