[Shocktop23]

I remember this game. I was in my grandpas basement watching the game with him, which i do love watching games with him, but couldnt understand why my cousin sold his truck, bought tickets to the game and didnt take me.

If we were SWOMO it'd probably be because you slept with his sister.

Just watched Fred's ankle breaking crossover for the jumper early in the second half. I knew it was coming and I still jumped out of my seat! Dirty!

In a way it reminds me of the end of the movie "No Country for Old Men" when Chigurh is t-boned driving away from Carla Jean's mom's house. You know it's coming, you think you're ready for it, and you still nearly piss your pants when it happens.

After their game here at our 21st and Hillside Court Of Dreams, did one UNI (NIU) player look at the other as the bus was warming up for the long ride home and say "Was that Iowa?" The other player might have said "No, and it was sure Not Heaven.!!!"

As we watch the picture perfect pass from FVV followed by the amazing dunk by T.C., we think "there is more!!!" What happens when you build it and the Shocker fans come? "The Roof!!!!!!!"

That play was just filthy nasty. The defender not only broke his ankles but probably soiled himself.

Someone post a youtube of the ankle breaker. I remember it but I gotta see it again!

I know the F4 run, the 34-1 season, the consecutive NCAA trips, and the conference titles have all released Shocker Nation from a lot of the shackles, real or perceived, that we carried through the years, but...

that dunk felt like the final exorcism, which was then completely sealed a few weeks later in beating KU.

I can hardly wait to see what is next!

I think I coded it right to start at the right place. I'm looking to see if there is a higher quality clip somewhere.

Which way did FVV go? This "between the legs" crossover even makes Tyrone Shoelace elated.

As I said elsewhere, FVV is a freakin' Jedi...
