Give us your best UD headline

All right, we KNOW you saw it.

The headline in the newspaper last Friday, the one everyone’s still talking about? Of course, we’re talking about the Dayton Daily News front-page head that launched the Flyers further into the NCAA tournament with “THE University of Dayton” after the team beat Ohio State.

Well, we won’t lie – it was fun writing a headline like that. And since we’re too nice to keep all the fun to ourselves, we’re going to give you the chance to try it yourself.

For Thursday night’s game against Stanford, the Dayton Daily News wants your help. We’re taking reader suggestions for the Dayton Daily News’ front page headline on the game story that will run in Friday’s paper. If we see one we think is better than what we come up with ourselves, we’ll print it. We’ll publish some of the best runners-up, too.

So, you have a narrow deadline window (as do we, by the way). From the end of the game until 10:30 p.m. Thursday, post your ideas on our Facebook page or on Twitter, using the hashtag #DDNheadline. Post all the ideas you want. If you win, we'll let you know that night.

Have fun – and go, Flyers!
