Final Four is Set–3 ACC Teams and Denver–Terps vs Irish and Duke vs Denver

One of the great moments in NCAA championship history was when Maryland took the field at M&T for the semi final matchup against Duke in 2011. 38,000 fans were there–95% of them Maryland fans. The stadium exploded and Maryland went on to destroy Duke. I only hope it’s replicated Saturday..

Coach John Danowski who for a Duke guy is a pretty nice guy, once told me there is no better place to play the championship then Bmore. The players feel like rock stars because kids in Baltimore know just about everyone who is there.

39 years of frustration have another chance to end. This burden is not on the players, most of whom probably don’t know who Frank Urso is.  Terrapin nation is lucky to have a Coach like John Tillman who honors the game with his insane work ethic, his ability to recruit, and his absolute love of Terrapin lacrosse.

Now let’s get down to business. Maryland needs no motivation to get ready for Notre Dame. First of all Notre Dame has ruined this year so far for Terp faithful. The Irish defeated Maryland for the College Cup of Soccer and the the ladies bball squad ended the great run of Alyssa Thomas and the Maryland women’s basketball squad in the final four.  But what gets me the most is the way Coach Corrigan insinuated game 1 was a lucky win for Maryland and then spoke of how the Irish manned up in the rematch. Listen in both matches Maryland totally dominated play both at the X and possession time. I can’t wait for this matchup. Why in the world did the polls diss Maryland so bad. You’ll see this week all the experts except maybe Mark Dixon will go against the Terps. 

It’s just in to root against Maryland. I get it all the time and it makes me sick. What can we do about it– get out there Saturday and let everyone know that Maryland is the home of lacrosse. I only care deeply about the number of Maryland faithful that are there. My thoughts are with Niko and Chanenchuck, Cooper, Raffa, the 4 Horsemen, Murray, Carlson, LoCasio, Erhardt, Ikeda, Dunn, Davis, etc. Let’s get it on!!!!

Dont ever forget Maryland was picked to finish last in the ACC.  I will leave my thoughts there until next Tuesday.
