That's kinda my point the crowd should be more into the game / rowdy on defense and not just boo every whistle. Just frustrating..

Quote from: The Word
I got a taste of what the K-State folks will bring about an hour ago. Meeting with some friends who made the trip out from Kansas over across the street at McMullen's to shoot the breeze, they pointed out that they come into the Orleans as the angriest fan base in America. Why? Well, they wouldn't really say - Ryan Green of The Las Vegas Sun

 Oh ok it's the whole angry thing. Cool. For a second there I thought it was just a crowd full of LBBIQ people booing because that's what the guy next to them was doing. But basically what we have is a crowd full of incredible hulks with uncontrollable rage. I'm angry just thinking about how angry I am. Angry!!!!!! Booooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!  :chainsaw: :chainsaw: :chainsaw:

 :facepalm: while i am all for a good hearty boo, this one I just can't get on board with.

Selfish? Ive sacrificed my vocal cords many times for this team and they  are capable of making loud noises other than "BOO". Regardless, if I thought booing relentlessly was what won us ball games then you bet your ass I'd be booing right up in Dyke Bakongos face all game. But it's not.

Is everyone on here a proponent of the boo everything theory? Surely there's someone else who finds it hard to watch out of pure respect for the game. The crowd sucked tonight, ever think it was because of all the wasted resources going towards unneccessary boos? It's like Obama administration spreading itself too thin. Save the energy for when it counts.

I think sitting on your couch having multiple replays to gauge the need for booing is lame. The fans at the game saw the play in the same speed the referee did and disagree with the call so they booooooooo. Even if the replay shows that they shouldn't have booed, they still will because they're committed. Calling off the boooo after seeing the replay would make our fanbase look worse.


Also the transition from the first foul out sit down to AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh was comical tonight.

Crowd sucked.  Was like a library in there.  Team won despite the crowd and not playing particularly well.  Octagon of Doom?  More like Octagon of Meh.

booing is fine, just need to remember that your goal as a fan is to rip the opponents faces of with your voice.

Guys, was sick last night.  Throat still all f'ed up. 

Anyway, during a bunch of booing in the second half, I held on what turns out a little too long to the booing and my throat didn't cooperate.  Right in mid boo it made my voice go partly out and made the voice is changing boo noise.  Everyone kinda looked around.  Kinda made me self boo conscious.

Tucks next door were very put out, but that was way before I boo'ed so hard that I brought on a second round of puberty.

I feel like that vid of the 09-10 CTR is a great example of OOD at its best.  Booing is great, but it has to be matched with a fevered viciousness and volume throughout the game, especially when the team is struggling.  At times the onus is on the crowd to "will" the home team to success.  Crowds are best when they act to cause things to happen and are not purely reactory.  The place was a library for much of the game and the crowd was horrid particularly in the final minutes of the first half.  I feel it contributed significantly to the teams poor play in that slot of time.
