I think so. U of L for the opener was sweet but this was the first ranked oponent ever to visit the SC and we owned them. We never trailed in this game (unbelievalbel) and looking back at the stats, Ed Nixon drained a rainbow 3 at the 13:19 point in the first half and the Rams went up by double digits, 21-9. OK never got the score below double digits the rest of the game (amazing) in spite of the refs best efforts to help them out.

You could easily say we dominated this game but if you look at the stats, it really doesn't show. What is telling, however, is how ineffective their star Willie Warren was including having two time outs called for him to deal with cramps :o Havoc played a role in this game even though we played with much more discipline than against UWM.

Anyway, great win, great day to be a Ram Fan.
 
Ed Nixon owned Willie Warren on defense. He never got into the lane on Ed and he rarely got the ball in catch, set, shoot position. Ed gets my game ball, although Jay Gavin is a darn assassin with the ball. He has as sweet a jumper as any I've seen.
 
best win in the siegel center, without a doubt.
 
I vote the Louisville SC opener. This is definitely #2 though by a long stretch, though.
 
Outstanding Team Effort, everybody that stepped on the court contributed, and how about TJ banging down low!! WAY TO GO RAMS!!!!
 
I think we have to wait a bit before declaring this the best victory. Remember, this was only OK's third game and they played nobody's at home for their first two victories. So their #17 ranking isn't based on performance but how good the "experts" think they will be.

Remember when we beat Maryland it was a big deal and they ended up being pretty mediocre by season's end.

But in terms of anticipation/performance its up there with the Louisville game.
 
As far as games in SC this would probably be number 1 just because of the emotion, intensity, and pure heart.
