Sycamores humiliate #16 Creighton 76-57. Creighton held 22 points below season average. Things are shaking out for Marquette to begin its march to the Top 15. Just win, baby!
Inexcusable for a ranked team to lose a conference road game! ;D
Definitely an embarrassing loss. A team with this much talent shouldn't be losing by 19 to Indiana State (and it wasn't even that close). Granted, Indiana State is a bubble team but the way we lost is disappointing.

It happens. Shots don't fall. Frustration makes you commit dumb fouls. Missed shots lead to easy baskets at the other end. It snow balls.
This is an odd year. There are probably only 5 teams that belong in the top ten. Then a bunch of teams that should just be called "ranked" without a number. I'm not shocked when any team wins or loses this year.

Maybe they can't EVER win on NATIONAL TV?
I understand that's a problem for some teams.
I was not trying to insult Creighton. Conference road losses are part of life. Ask Florida. It was more of an ironic shot at those who think MU should be immune to this.

It happens, it's called life on the road. ISU is in the RPI top 50 and has 4 wins over the top 50.
