Exactly. I really want to cheer for ud, but a lot of their fans make it difficult.


Just ignore them. I'm a ud fan and I can't stand some of the fans. They act like steeler fans but with no rings

Easier said than done.

unfortuately yes. for us, A10 looking really good would not be good for us at all- especially if PC loses on our side.

American is bad. Colorado is almost as bad.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

UD grad here....recognize that the UD fanbase is bifurcated. There are the old timers that remember when UD basketball was a big deal in the 50s and 60s. UDPride is their domain and they are the insufferable homers. Then you have the under 50 crowd that is much more pragmatic. Blackburnreview is their domain. I think you'll find the blackburnreview crowd a bit more to your liking. And any fanbase will have their idiots.

I hope there's a BE invite in the future for the UD program. I think it would be good for the BE from a rivalry standpoint. You have the built in Xavier UD rivalry. And I think there would be a rekindled Marquette rivalry too. The BE is missing a really nasty rivalry. That being said, at the end of the day it's fun and all to watch your alma mater on the national stage but the reality is you didn't go to school there because of the basketball team. You went there to get an education and hopefully you got a positive ROI. Anyone taking this too seriously should have their head examined. All of us, especially in the midwest, likely work with UD, Xavier, Marq grads so you can't take any of this too seriously.

Nice win by UD, let's hope they can keep it rolling.

Dude, just give it a break. We are trying to limit the trolling and enjoy the NCAA tournament for all BE and potential BE teams.
