This is exactly what I do every year, as I have to travel back east for Thanksgiving.

And why isn't this game being televised???!!!

If I were to close my eyes and have someone read this and other quotes that are on this blog without mentioning the school, Portland, I would think this was coming from some east coast snob-whining cry- babies. I think most rational fans throughout the country would say to get over your not being a #1 seed. You deserved it but it was not taken from you by UCLA! If anyone took it from you it was FSU and the committee to not have the west coast securing 3 #1's. If you believe the polls, the NSCAA, Soccer Times, Soccer America and Top Drawer, all have you and UCLA in the top 4 rankings, not FSU. So, go ahead and crank up the emotions with your rivalry and disdain for you opponent down south, which I can understand and respect but the other sarcastic comments are really childish and beneath this quality program. Your team will have a great opportunity to go down south (in great weather, I might add) and show the soccer world that you deserved to be in the final four. (Leave your drums behind) Good luck

Definitely bring the drums.

We like challenges. Bring it. It's good for the rivalry.

read your NCAA tournament rulebook.

UCLA MUST admit 25 members of an approved band or cheer group and their instuments for FREE if they are in uniform.

See pictures of drum squad in kilts.

"childish and beneath this quality program."

LOL. Chill out man.

Confiscate this.

(Dead horse symbolizes a Bruin. Ironically, we beat it like a drum)

I like it, One Touch - but couldn't you find a Bear somewhere, or maybe a Boston Bruin?

That's awesome, Onetouchfutbol!

Tempted to get my kilt, drum, and fly down just to prove you wrong. Do you tell USC to leave their band when they play you, too? Or Stanford?

You don't need anything beyond drums to make music...and that, believe it or not, is what we do. Don't believe me? Watch and listen.

PFFFFFFTTT...You thought this was bad, wait 'til the lead up to the Gonzaga basketball game in January. Being that it's only about six weeks away I look at this as a warm-up.

Feel like a whirlwind trip? I have an extra seat in my car. Leaving Portland Friday night and returning after the game, so hopefully you can sleep in a car.
