Tickets still available from Cornell Club Washington, DC. They have over 100 people going already and at $21 tickets are cheaper than buying them through Maryland

Based on this, more than 100 Cornell fans would make up a significant percentage of the crowd in College Park.

[Trotsky]

Some advice about the College Park crowd.  They are... how can I put this... they can be, uh.

From Maryland Athletics http://www.umterps.com/facilities/md-comcast-center.html: "In 2007-08, 341,050 fans came to the 19 home games at Comcast Center, setting a school record for per-game average at 17,950. Last year, Maryland ranked seventh in the nation in home attendance and welcomed its two-millionth fan in the seven seasons the Terrapins have played in their sparkling new home."

Maryland Athletics is selling tickets to the game at the 60% discounted price of $12, but it's apparently today only:

I've got my tickets.  Anyone else from ELF going to be there?

[phillysportsfan]

Yes I will be there. I am not expecting a win as it will probably be like the last 4 road games, close but not enough. Although Maryland has been asking for a loss, squeaking by at home against a bunch of average to below average teams. They really could use a win here, tough to go into Ivy play 5 straight losses with no road wins yet. That long losing steak going into Ivy play last year really hurt them, never really recovered until it was too late

Maryland game will be webcast on espn3.

What is the etiquette of Cornell basketball fans wearing a hockey jersey to an away game? Is it bad because it's a reminder to our opponent that hoops is not Cornell's winter sport most winters? I'm thinking that's why we all have Cornell sweatshirts. Plus there's the Rick Reilly column, Jersey Rules. No. 1 says don't wear jerseys past age 29. Also note:

>>> Jersey Rule No. 8: Absolutely no cutesy wrong-color jerseys. No pink Yankees jerseys. No camouflage Cowboys jerseys. And no new University of Maryland jerseys. They look like an explosion at a Benjamin Moore store.

espn3 video was perfect; team came from 23 down early in the game to tie it in the second but lost in the end, 70-62.

Did we actually tie it?  I thought we only got within one on several occasions.

Coming out party for Devin Cherry, who was injured early in the season.  He, along with Miller and Cancer, gives us an dynamic Freshman trio.
