I should have added an option for 'Alive but not college age yet'...but can't add due to quick edit window... Typical of these days...blowing off Gen X and acting like only Boomers and Millenials exist. I was in eigth grade, by the by...

On this date I was 2 months from graduation and still spitting sentences that used various curse words and the name Rolando Blackman. This year's team and this game makes all the bad feelings go away. How about ASU and the trio of Scott, Lever, Lister? That one never goes away.... I was in the student section in Gill for that one. What a beatdown! And a bad note to head into the NCAA tourney on.

How about U of Idaho student? One of my many stops. But as a native Oregonian my heart has always belonged to the Beavers. And to the poster who noted that OSU’s win was “vacated”, that’s cold comfort to the Vandals who advanced to the Sweet 16 by beating a Lute Olson-coached Iowa team in overtime.

I was a 21-year-old Junior in Engineering at OSU. 18 years later, when I was 39, my son was born. My son is now a junior in college and will turn 21 this year.

That would have been 10 years after I graduated from OSU. I think that was the year my wife kissed Lester Connor on the lips after the Beavs got off the plane at PDX and after beating ucla for the first time in forever down in LA.

That was the year after I graduated from OSU in civil engineering.....I was engaged and working at WPPSS in Tri-cities .....I’m sure a few of you remember that debacle.

I was two. I was talking to my dad tonight and just marveling at the fact that the tourney games I remember us playing in have been against Evansville, Ball State, and VCU. The Louisville game happened when I was eight, but I have no recollection of that one. For me, the tournament has always been us losing to small mid-majors.
Then today we come in and go wire to wire against an SEC team. Mind blowing, and so fun. Keep it up Beavs!

I was a sophomore in high school in 1982. Was a huge OSU fan, having grown up there in town. Used to sneak into games at Gill Coliseum and was even there that night in the rafters when OSU lost to ASU with Fat Lever, Paul Williams, Sam the Bam and others. That one really stun as we were #1 in the nation. As an OSU student played against Peyton at Dixon, went to all the games (basketball and football). Great memories at OSU and Corvallis in general. Best place in the world to grow up.

I'm 36 years old and the Tennessee win was the first NCAA win in my lifetime! Keep the Orange Express rolling!
