Three way tie in fb (5-3). Akron won the tie breakers.

BG fans could put that in their siggy's but we're not nearly so vain.

Well, Michelle already told you about our experience. I ordered online thinking ... section F, that'll be BG fans all the way. Unfortunately, there were some obnoxious UM fans on either side of us. It made it that much sweeter to pummel them last night. Great game, great atmosphere (aside from the weasels sitting next to us). The one guy actually had the nerve to tell a couple BG fans in front of him to sit down. I should have reminded the guy that this was our house and that he wasn't in Ann Arbor with his goons at Yost. The other guy was just an obnoxious loudmouth (the typical arrogant, delusional UM Hockey fan that thinks UM is God's gift to college hockey) that tried to crowd Michelle out of her seat. As for the cheers, I can live with the dreaded 'S' word (as in Hey, YOU SUCK). That's better than the F*** Montoya cheer (UM Goalie, as if anyone needs to be reminded) that the students fired up last year. I thought the crowd support was awesome (especially the students) and was thrilled that Michelle and I were there for this one. Check the CCHA Standings ... we're not that far away from being in second place (Miami has sort of distanced itself from the rest of the pack right now in first)! Wouldn't it be great to be making that trek to the Joe in a month and a half!

all in the eye of the beholder i guess. as rightupinthere said, there was a three-way tie for the mac east this year...you beat us, we beat crAkron, crAkron beat you. we won the outright regular season basketball title last year (= a banner at millett), but as you said, we didn't win the tournament. at least the baseball team won both the regular season and conference tournament!

..."we're gonna kick the s*** out of you"
This is the exact reason the song was banned from being played by the band on BGSU's campus, not because of the "You Suck!"

The reason many older fans complain about the "You Suck" is because the meaning has changed. Back in the day, as noted above, it was a sexual meaning. It's now changed to basically mean "You're bad."

I know some people complain about it, but it gets the crowd going at basketball games, hockey and football games better than any other song played at BGSU.

And yes, BGSU is much better than most other crowds. Other than one particular hockey chant, you don't hear vulgarities.

My personal opinion though -- it's hockey, what I consider a badass sport. "You Suck!" being brought up is comical to me...but that's just me. Ask the coaches and players, they love it. It really excites the crowd and gets the home-atmosphere into play. I fail to see what the big deal about "You Suck." We don't throw batteries at opposing fans like Wisconsin, we don't chant "ASSHOLE!" at every fan wearing their attire like OSU, and we don't throw pee bottles like Penn State. People don't realize how calm our fans really are here. People will always find something to complain about.
