    I'm there in spirit, but unfortunately not in person.

    Comments, chit chat, and hopefully some first person accounts below.

    I do know that the men's basketball game was played four hours before the originally scheduled tipoff to get as many fans out tonight as possible.

    I'm listening to the game right now over the internet. VCU 1-0 so far. They just scored in the 5 minute.

    VCU's speed so far is killing UCSB. They keep getting behind the defense.

    ever since VCU scored the first goal it has been all UCSB. VCU still only has that 1 shot on goal.

    Who scored for VCU?

    And may I say these announcers are bigger homers than you get on the Simpsons!

    Campus radio, what more can you say?

    I'm sure they're being egged on by a couple thousand drunk Isla Vistans.

    I know. At one point they even said VCU should come out to west coast more to experience the beautiful sunshine and our great quality of life. I was laughing.

    They said there were at least 2k at the game. I like the commercial now about the terror megamix. Pretty funny. I forgot how different college radio is. Pretty cool.

    It's a UCSB tradition to scoff at where the opposing school is located. Don't be surprised if the students start chanting "We don't live in Richmond." The only schools that chant doesn't work against is Pepperdine and Hawaii. Otherwise, it's pretty hard to beat SB.

    Thats why I was laughing. I've been to Santa Barbara and I know how awesome it is. If you've been to Richmond its like the complete opposite. Its horrible.

    1-1 at halftime

    Oduro for VCU has some sort of thigh bruise that is slowing him down, according to KCSB.

    It's really not hard to beat Richmond. Especially the area where VCU is located.

    Well, it is a city with a history--not just a setting for the unbearable lightness of being. The area by VCU it's true is surrounded by Victorian rowhouses rather than suburban franchised blahblah.

    So what's the translation of "Gaucho"?

    VCU might as well go ahead and lose, because their chances of beating Duke with the waterboy on the field will be real slim. Sounds like all those fouls and redcards for UCSB during the regular season might have been deserved.

    A Gaucho is a South American cowboy. Funny story to why they chose the nickname. There was some movie back in the day called The Way of the Gaucho that starred the Brad Pitt of the day. The lady coeds stuffed the ballot box for Gaucho. So if the school was founded today, we'd probably be called the Achilles.

    You obviously don't know Richmond. VCU isn't in Gilpin Court or Highland Park. What's Chantilly like? All lacey and sweet?

    Hey man, you ever go to Pure Pleasure or Paper moon on Midlothian turnpike? Those places are fun.
