This. eli should get comfortable on the bench. It's going to be hard to keep Xavier off the floor.
We beat a top 10 team that is quickly becoming our bball rival and who stole the last game from us. You don't think that is somewhat floor rushing worthy?
VERY solid on D. Super high energy, disrupted the passing lanes. Some minor mistakes, but great effort.

Then why are they ranked 9th and we are struggling to make the show? Listen, I agree with you that we are better and that the rankings suck, but this was a win that will almost guarantee a trip to the show. If we lose, we are in trouble.
Oh STFU. :lol:

Oh no! Students having fun! What are we going to do?!?!
What the hell is wrong with you guys? These students have put up with one of the worst stretches in history and now we've beat a top 20 team and a top 10 team in basketball. It's pretty unprecedented. I say go for it, Buff students! Some of my best memories at CU are me behaving ridiculously following sporting events. **** the curmudgeons!

You don't rush the floor when it's a) a team you and your fans expect to beat, and b) an in-conference foe that just lost a previous game to another middle of the pack team.
Save for when we knock off an unbeaten or one-loss team. Stay in the gym and holler and sing the fight song from the side of the court, but show AZ that they aren't anything special when they come to our court. Don't give them that recognition or satisfaction of being a 'better' team that we happen to have played above ourselves against, and beat the odds. That's not the case tonight.
Uhhh ... *ahem* ...

Tad just said
as is the post after yours...damn you boys have some lotto numbers to play?
Tad Boyle agrees with you. Just said on the radio that should be the last time the court is stormed

It's a culture change, cville. Most of the fans have never seen year-to-year success on the hardwood. We're all used to the "want to win" attitude that needs to become "expect to win"; then the post-game celebrations will have the air of been-there-done-that. I have no clue how long it takes to make that transition.
The way I see it, the student haven't had a rush the court type moment since they knocked off Texas a couple years back. I agree it wasn't a big upset, and you'd like to get to the point where we are not rushing the court at all... but rather when we lose on the road, opposing fans are rushing the court.
Anyways, great win for the team. Especially great for Xavier Talton. Know a lot of people really were hard on the kid early in the year, but he's shown that he can be a very effective player for us, especially if he gets more experience. I haven't given up on Eli, but it's hard to see how they will both get decent minutes next season

...And that one miss from the field was when he got fouled on the shot. He's a badass.
Vindication for us ****ing curmudgeons! :thumbsup:
The criticism of rushing the court is obvious. It was a team that was ranked, but just lost Sunday at home to Cal. It was a game that Colorado really wasn't huge underdogs in, either. It wasn't the case of beating an undefeated #1 or something.
Rushing the court should really be something used for rare circumstances... this probably wasn't it, but I don't see it as a program damaging move either.
Only excuse for it, could be how the previous game ended and how almost all of Zona's fans seem to think they were the clear winner.
