This quote is from the Des Moines Register, so its not really "national", but the quote is great:
"There’s so much gold in this place that you can’t tell where the crowd ends and the nightmare begins."
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. Seuss

A selection of Kyle Whelliston's Twitter posts from last night:
[KW] It's worth noting how ridiculously difficult it is to run the table in the Valley. Last team to come close was SIU in 04 (17-1).[KW] Roundhouse is ridiculous packed, as always. One of the most incredibly passionate fan bases at our level. http://twitpic.com/yvgkl[KW] During WSU starting lineups, press table was literally bouncing. Bally was boing-boing-boinging around![KW] Durley layup for Wichita to open scoring, and the place feels like it's going to implode. We are on ESPNU tonight but not Pixelvision.[KW] Wichita out to a 13-6 lead despite a couple of really bad-looking airballs. Will need Advil after this, but it's totally worth it![KW] You'll hear comparisons between the 2 best MVC atmos, WSU and Creighton. Qwest fits more inside, but never gets as loud as Koch can.There are other roundhouses (out west, or CHAT), but taller. Seating here kinda like the Joe in Det. @Harpernk What venues compare to Koch?[KW] WSU 29-27. There needs to be a name/sniglet for Marshall's angry TO walk to midcourt and back to the bench. Shox fans, what you got?[KW] Um, never mind! Wichita is taking control of this game now, on a 10-1 run since the 8-minute mark. Lots of transition action, Jackson![KW] (Wichita fans:) clap, clap, clap, clap (Bally:) boing, boing, boing, boing[KW] UNI the latest team to fall victim to national ranking-itis. Will have to win this from the line; they ain't winning it on the floor.[KW] 52-44 Wichita at 1:20 2H. It's easy to mistake "patient" for "flat" or vice-versa, but I declare this game closed.[KW] And that's it! Wichita State 60, Northern Iowa 51. UNI 15-game winning streak: over! Perfect MVC record: over! Valley race: on!

Here is a good quote from that article:
Wichita State surrendered nothing easily on this night - during which Koch Arena's sellout crowd was loud enough to make the boys from Spinal Tap plug their ears.
