What was the more legendary Dome game?

Depends on what happens in the next two months, I think. In hindsight, a great win by a championship team regarded more fondly than a great win by a team that didn't end up going all the way.

Even so, tough to top some of the aspects of the Pitt game: the big deficit overcome, the clutch free throws, the late go-ahead bucket, the huge crowd (after two full seasons without a 30,000 game), the upset of a woulda-been #1 team (after two years of mostly falling flat against top opponents, save for Seton Hall in 2001).

After having been a top-five program for a half-decade now, we're used to big crowds and big wins. Maybe not as impressive as last night, but big event games are less of a rarity than they were in early 2003.

The Gerry game was not a better atmosphere, but the emotion in that Dome was absurd. Half of everyone was crying.

3 OT game in the Big East Championship against Villanova and it isn't close. This game was a great win and will always be memorable but when you put a little history behind it, it won't seem nearly as momentous.

Caveat: I missed your poll...but that said I still stand by the statement.

Im not going to lie, proud to say I almost broke into some tears last night had to fight them back and still knew the look on my face wasn't masking that I was about to.

Was so proud of CJ last night so great to see him have a huge uplift he looked like a overwhelmed proud that was about to break into tears himself. Awesome seeing DC give him the hug at the end.
