Why we believe in Magic
- Thread starter CycloneYoda

Combine all of that with fan support at games and faith in our team, and that IS Hilton Magic. Hilton Magic is a phenomena that is created by the coaches, fans and players all together.
I actually thought it was louder vs Michigan. Certainly it was loud much more often. I thought the fact ISU was losing most of the game and the overall ugliness/choppiness/lack of flow took the crowd out of it. A lot.
That said, it did get loud there at the end, esp for Giselle. Can't believe he missed them both!

I understand what you're saying, but if you think the fans didn't play a part on those last missed free throws by Iowa, then you're crazy.
I hope I don't have to explain that people don't actually believe in Hilton being magical. It's the atmosphere that's created there, and that's created by the fans, players and the coaching staff.
Hilton IS magical. Always has been, always will be.
Kinda like the island from LOST. Hilton would not allow a loss last night.
So Hilton is pretty much purgatory for other teams that come in and very few get out alive? I actually like the comparison!
I don't think they're mutually exclusive. I'd like to think--at least in terms of the "hard work" and "teamwork" you mentioned--that Cyclone fans appreciate (and let be know through noise and craziness) our team's work on the court, which further elevates the players' efforts. Add to that 14,000 fans doing their best to get into the heads of opponents and you have "magic." All parties involved work hard to create the magic.
My 10yo was on me all week just making sure I was letting him stay up late to watch the game. We were jumping around and screaming at the end. Living in CR, he will have a fun day at school on Monday.
