One word to describe your feelings going into tonight's game

Reallyfuckingfiredup.

Because tonight is going to be a party! You stay classy San Diego!

Subs.

Hail!

Jubilant (or elated or euphoric or...

why did I only get one word?

Go!

 

hmmm...that doesn't sound right... does it have to be one word?

pretty much sums it up. 

Talked to some of my friends and they say, “well – anything now is just kind of icing on the cake.”  While I’m inclined to agree as I believe the general consensus is that this team was a S16 team and that was about it.  Now that we’re so close, I find myself drawing on the same emotions I had from the two years the Fab 5 made it and how dejected I was after those losses.  Winning tonight would kind of quell those feelings – that we finally “did it”.  I was 9 when we beat Seton Hall.  After years of struggling through the Ellerbe/Amaker years – we’re finally there.  40 minutes away.

Not to state the obvious, but I think if we are 40% from 3-pt land tonight I think we will take it home.  I’m really hoping THJ and Stauskas have good games after being cold against ‘Cuse.

Either way, I’m damn proud of what this team has done and am decked out in Michigan gear today at work.   Go Blue!!

Hobocamp! Seriously though, "proud" for me too. So proud of this team because they are a true team. There could be infighting due to lost playing time and competition for headlines, but they just want to win.

PPPPPLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

ADD

ADD

Irritable bowel.

I realize that's two words, but I couldn't compund it.

McGary

Pantless.

Inconceivable.

Win for Michigan.

Boner???

On

MGoHolyShit. I really don't know how to feel. given the teams I root for, this is my first time having a team I'm so emotionally invested in, playing for it all.

Me on the outside today:

And my true feelings on the inside:

Not a single ounce of work will be done today.  I'm just too damn excited.

Nervous

Maybe anxious would be better. It's kind of like the feeling before a big job interview or presentation. Just keep replaying it in my mind, and thinking about all the things that could go wrong.

I find myself repeating, "I'm so excited, I'm so excited" to no one in particular. Kind of like that one scene from Saved By the Bell where Jessie has the freakout......this is what Michigan fandom has done to me.

and I don't care.....because I'M SO EXCITED!!!

My word would be:

No-politics-but-wouldn't-it-be-cool-for-Trey-Burke-to-visit-the-White-House-and-give-Obama-a-shout-out-to-return-the-favor-from-when-Obama-asked-if-Shoelaces-was-in-the-house-?-Kind-of-a-full-circle-type-deal-with-football-and-basketball-.-It-would-be-a-great-illustration-of-the-idea-that-the-two-programs-are-building-off-of-each-other-while-each-program-blossoms-on-its-own-accord.

Piss off, spellchecker.

Buoyant!

Thrilled.  For Beilein, for Michigan, for Burke, for the whole team.  Just thrilled that they have the opportunity to play for a title.

Proud of our team and our university.

Tick. That's the one word for me. The clock is going SO SLOOOOOOOOOOW! I'm in an office with four women, only two of which are here, and they are from India and have NO interest in sports whatsoever. Doesn't help that I live in South Florida. The CNO here is a big sports fan (Bama fan, but any port in a storm, right?) so maybe I'll get to talk with someone today. Just pumped and have to contain it all day. ,

CONFIDENT.

And proud. Lets take home the title tonight !

Anxious more than anything. The thing that gives me really solid hope is the way we've come out in the second game at each stage of the tournament (VCU and Florida). I haven't been paying a ton of attention to the media, but I'm sure Louisville is who most people are expecting to win, and this team has been up to the task all season long when they're the underdog/upset pick. I'm just ready to explode through a wall right now and we still have a long ways to go before gametime.
