Bowl games will be the only place you can consume alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should focus on the issue of cops "breaking the law" and not their excuse for it. I believe that was the original topic of post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hadn't been acting like an out-of-control mob and saying whatever you want and drinking as much as you want and trying to rush the field at least once a year, there wouldn't be any need to treat the student section like Guantanimo.Maybe the all-powerful SBC should take this matter up with the students and get them to stop acting like hooligans.

For example, yesterday, before the game the UConn kicker kept missing the net and kicking into the student section. The cops came down and were getting in our faces for having the balls, not even giving the students a chance to throw them back. The whole issue starts on Sept. 24, 2005. The first time we had a reason to storm the field, we were denied a celebration and were then punished for it. Students were beaten and tasered on the field. Since then the police have not trusted us and the students haven't liked the police either. What message does it send that they install collapasable goal posts and only take down the one closest to the students after the game? Don't get me wrong. The police do a great job handling the idiots who are at the game and start troubble, but it seems they try to remove people who they think might start trouble. Trust is at the heart of this issue.

They actually shot over 100 times but only hit 68. That doesnt imply they were out for blood it implies they had a threat in front of them with a gun who had already killed someone and shot someone else. You tell me what your nerves would be like walking through a forest looking for an armed man with a gun who MAY SHOOT YOU AT ANY MOMENT. You finally find the guy and you dont know if he is going to shoot it out with you. He doesnt surrender which means bullets can fly at any second. Your a swat team memeber holding an MP5 which fires 13 rounds of bullets a second. You fire, your buddy fires and his buddy fires. Within 3 seconds thats about 100 bullets. Too much? I think not.

Louisville was going to happen until they pulled out the tasers on the first people. There hasn't been a game since then to rush the field in my opinion. But for them to threaten us in the front row about rushing is uncalled for. This wouldn't be an issue if they had either 1) let us in the field but protected the FGs, 2) given us due natoice and warning, or 3) not used excessive force and blame us for it.

So I maybe should not have said "first". But it was still the biggest win in our history and it will have a dark cloud over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
