Classic names like Josh "Richter" Ackley, Parker Krug, and Keith "Bizarro" Huntzinger. The worst mark of all time starting at 1:45. Freshman Beau Kittredge surprising everyone. Jolian Dahl dominating but stuck in Beau's shadow. Egregious triple-team zone at :52 (and you thought Florida was bad). The fiery/douchey coaching duo of Catt and Juice.
And, most importantly: People forget that UCSB Black Tide won the Southwest Regional final by beating Mamabird. They were then disqualified from Nationals for having an ineligible player on their roster (someone who hardly played at all). UCSD went to nationals instead, did pretty well, and the next year beat them handily in the game-to-go, breaking Black Tide's psychological mystique forever.
@WRXSEVEN I actually used to have video of one point from that game where Honda of Air Squids caught a layout callahan. I didn't get to see the game, but I heard it was so ridiculously intense that someone from Air Squids spit on a Mamabird player. I do, however, have a DVD of both Nationals semifinals from 2003.

You know your history. I'm waiting for the Squid videos from 2003 showing the Southwest game to go. Double game point, 'Bird wins and goes on to lose to eventual champions Wisco in Semifinals. That game was epic
