you'll never quite understand it. The hour before that game was as loud as most actual games are now. The lead up was amazing - USC football game amazing. The team's performance was equal to the task. I realize this game is going down in this round but it was ND basketball magic at its finest.


I agree....

I was but a young kid attending with my father, but I remember sitting in the seat next to my dad and having serious trouble hearing him speak. It was deafening to hear 29 and 1 over and over. It was one of those games that made me an ND basketball fan for life.

I'm not sure I've heard a crowd that loud at ND hoops game since the early 80s and don't think the current crowds (even at peak noise) come anywhere close.


I am very lucky to have attended the following games

Have the “Cameron Crazies” ever been MVP of a game? *
