Not only did Creighton edge us out by founding a few years (1878) earlier, they beat us in attendance, ARGH!!!!

Two Jesuit schools in the top 15...

In fairness to Creighton, they're the only show in town.     I think it's awesome an MVC school can draw big numbers

A lot of people rip on Altman for staying at Creighton... but they have a great fan base and are still on the rise (new arena, revitalized campus, etc).

Creighton is one big tourney run from becoming a contender.

Obviously they don't play in a big conference (which will be a challenge), but they are a solid program.
