T&M was the loudest sports arena or stadium I've ever been too, and I've been to Arrowhead Stadium. They have smart fans.
Anyways, was there any word on DJ Gay's injury? I know he didn't come out, but that ankle might swell up. Just wondering.

The arena urinals have a higher IQ than most UNLV fans ... that fact out of the way, I'm envious of all of you who were there to see it live. Enjoy the night and get home safe. We've got a lot more celebrating to do over the next seven weeks!

Leitner was commenting on the post-game that he thought T&M was much louder than both Provestan and the Pit. Said it was the loudest Aztec game he's ever been to. Impressive.
Gay said in the postgame that his ankle was sore and that Fish asked him if he wanted to come out and rest it. Gay said he stayed in the game because he was pretty sure that if he sat down, his ankle would stiffen and he might be done for the night. Said that it should be OK with some ice and a couple days' rest.
BTW, how p*ssed must Roberta fans be by the broadcast? In the second half, right when the Robertas launched their epic run, CBS put some headphones on Marshall Faulk. The announcers and Marshall then yacked for about 5 minutes about all things Aztecs: Hoke, Hillman, hoops, HOF, Rocky Long, etc., etc. Forgot there was a bball game in progress. I was OK with it. But just imagine if you're watching an SDSU/BYU game and they bring Steve Young courtside to talk about his football heroics. I'd barf. Twice.
The moral of the story is that it sux to be a Roberta.

Thx for update on DJ, LTB.

I noticed this while watching last night too. An Aztec Love Fest occured for what seemed like 10 minutes to me. The announcers even broke back to the game for a bit and I thought, " They must have just shoved Marshall away from the area without wrapping it up. Then they came for awhile longer. I had to laugh a bit and told my wife that Rebel fans watching had to be pretty pissed watching on TV.

According to Coach Fisher in the post game interview (youtube). He said Carlwell just tweaked his ankle and he should be fine. Said in the paper that Carlwell tweaked his knee and came out to have the trainer wrap his knee. From my vantage point, it looked more like a knee or hammy than an ankle. Hope it doesn't turn out to be something serious or lingering, if, in fact, it is a knee. From the U-T: "Tim Shelton was out with a bad bone bruise in his right foot. So was guard Chase Tapley with an ankle sprain. Backup center Brian Carlwell was in the locker room getting his tweaked right knee wrapped."

C'mon bro, I'm sure it was loud. But louder than an NFL stadium? No. 18k in a closed space is almost always louder than 70k in an open space.

The best part was when the Aztecs got up by about 6 early and The Show started doing the Woos, or the Ric Flair noises as I like to call them.

Just arrived home also...What an atmosphere at the T@M last night...Many proud Aztec fans, especially in the taxi line after the game....It was certainly the loudest I have ever heard an arena except the time I went to the Pit about 8 years ago with a sold out crowd and we pulled off the win, Randy Holcomb I think was the star that year...It was so loud you literally could not even talk to the person sitting next to you....Rebel fans seem to be losing patience with Kruger....Tark is a legend still for sure over there.

Guess Kruger doesn't recruit enough thugs for the Rebel fans. And what did Nevada ever "rebel" against, anyway?

far from smart fans, best comeback I heard leaving T&M was "I hope you lose money on the strip!"

just got back too, and these guys are not kidding when UNLV tied the score, the noise was oppressively loud.
But my favorite part was when there was 1.03 on the clock and DJ hit both FT, and we were 4 up, I could not believe the number of fans that headed for the exit. WHAT? Sweet

Would you please explain what you mean by, "Ric Flair noises"? Smokey the Bear with shovel minds want to know. I heard the wooing over the Can't Broadcast Simpleshit, ta-boot! Great Job traveling Aztecs! HAM
