I'm sure it has happened in the past. I don't pretend no BG player has "never ever ever" done anything wrong and I never said anything like that, nor did anyone else from what I can see. What I pointed out was that in a game just this past season a WKU player took a cheap shot at the knees of a BG player well after and well away from the play and seriously injured him. Seems to me that's a pretty good reason to be bitter, angry, or any other emotion I want to feel about it. Doesn't seem that hard to understand. Post me a video of a BG player doing that and evidence of a game BG played as dirty as WKU did in that game and I'll climb right aboard your crazy train.
OK, I just get the sentiment in here that BG is holier than thou, I can understand the hatred when its so soon.
No, BG isn't holier than anyone, but we also don't make a habit of commiting cheap shots or condoning them should they occur. The notion that we do or would rightly struck a cord with some of us BG fans here on a BG message board.

Thank you. I also don't play the harpsichord, but I've considered taking it up. :-)

Looks like the Hilltoppers will be advancing to round two. Doesn't bother me though, my mom is a graduate.

I may have spoke too soon. Now 86-85

Not so fast, my friend. My grandmother's alma mater is charging back, down 1 with 1:12 left.

GO DRAKE!!!

I have Drake advancing in my bracket. I'd like to see more of these mid-majors make good use of their good seeds like a #5 for Drake.
