Cornell-UNH Postgame Thread

[quote schoaff][quote ebilmes]I thought the Bitz shot that "hit the post" was a goal. Not sure what angle the ref had, but the players were celebrating and the goal light went on. If it had hit the post, it would have made a clear sound. Definitely thought it was in the back of the net and bounced out.[/quote]

I had about as good of an angle on that shot as is humanly possible (and first row to boot). It hit the front inside corner of the post and popped right out without crossing the line. Ref had it right. I had already finished my "Oh that was close," groan when I saw the light on.[/quote]

Completely disagree with this. I was also sitting behind the goal, but a little bit to the side (in the Cornell section). Admittedly, I would be one of the first to boo the ushers a bit if it HAD hit the post, but honestly, both myself and my boyfriend saw the net swish, leading us to believe it had hit and bounced out. No sound either (except that dumb UNH cowbell that was played every 30 seconds), and it was a quick shot, so had it hit the post, I'm pretty sure it would have been heard.

On another note, props to whoever started the "live free / die" chant. I enjoyed that one, even if I had to explain NH's motto to those around me before they got it.

The New Hampshire fans we hung with during the consolation game were amused by the Old Man of the Mountain cheer.

We got creative at the @Dartmouth game last year.  It took two periods before I realized that they'd be applicable to the other New Hampshire school too

...which was?

Hey New Hampshire, the Old Man of the Mountain called, and he said, Ahhhhhh! (with hands on face, then pulling down, as if face was falling off)

Because the actual, massive, natural granite structure did fall a few years ago after eons of hanging on top of a 1000' cliff in Franconia Notch for those of you who aren't familiar with it.
