Thought it was kinda handy last year, may as well make one for this year.

Gonna find out how good Creighton is without Patton and Watson real quick. They play Northwestern tonight who have struggled in their first two games.

Seton Hall was struggling early with Indiana, but taking over in the second half. Up 57-43 on the strength of a big second half run.

In terms of comparison? Not really. MSM playing their third road game in 6 days, we had a 37 point lead before letting off the gas, and GT more than doubled them up on the boards.

That Krampelj kid came out of nowhere for Creighton. Averaged 2 points and 2 boards last season. Averaging over 10 points, 8 rebounds, has an eFG% of 65% through 3 games. They'll need him if Hegner is out for a significant amount of time. He was on crutches by the end of the game.

St John's looks athletic..

I only caught the last 5 minutes, but Nebraska looked like the Washington Generals playing the Globetrotters. Hope that's why Morrow left, as entertaining as St John's looked, the Huskers looked bad.

Providence built up a 12-point lead, then held on as Washington surged back repeatedly. Going to get out with a 77-70 win, though. In the "Wojo can spot talent" narrative, Kalif Young is developing nicely. Tough, physical kid.

Washington shouldn't be good this season. Worrisome that they gave the Friars that much trouble.

Huskers are bad but SJU put them away with style.

X is much better than the Badgers, but the Kohl Hole can be a huge advantage. They played well. I hope we can beat both of them this season.

Hard to argue with either of those. We have to earn being considered more than a 2nd tier team.

Having been a fan in Marquette's student section for four years, I've heard some babies from our student section as well.  Just hard to maintain objectiveness towards a bitter rival I guess.

UCLA has comeback from 11 down to tie Creighton at 32 on ESPNU. UCLA went zone to slow down the Jays.

St. John's after a slow start versus Mollory, now rolling on FS1.

This can only bode well for MU as they can only seem to beat them when they're the number one team in the nation  8-)
