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.
Side note, the new points of emphasis have made a lot of games borderline unwatchable. Way too many whistles...
Hegner may have just blown out his knee. Couldn't really tell what he hurt.
Lowly Gtown beats Mount St Mary's 102-68. Anything to make of that?
The Cats are getting hammered like they are DePaul at the Rosemont. Our scrimmage RPI just dropped us another seed line.

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.
No love for X in Vegas. Wisconsin favored by 3.5.

Simple. The game is at the Kohl Center.

Ehh. Top 15 team against a team outside the top 40. X should be favored.

Well, I hope your right. If that was the case, the betting line would move.
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.
Down goes Bucky. Down goes Bucky. Slammed at home by a "mid major"
JP just pooped on the Wisco fan base
Gator chomped to all of them...just in case they forgot last years tourney

Their fans are such babies. Taunt Xavier players, you better expect it back when your team falls apart.
Clearly JP didn't forget about last year's tournament. or the year before. Good for him.
Nice win for Xavier against the Badgers. The Johnnies looked good against the Huskers.
I don't blame JP. You have students chanting a**hole at you.
Washington/Providence tied on ESPN2.
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.
In today's episode of, 'He hasn't graduated yet?' The entire Xavier starting lineup.

During the providence game today Seth Greenberg said MU is a "2nd tier BE team" and there will be 6-7 teams in th tourney from the BE this year

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.

I haven't been able catch the game yet -- is it just Mollory out there, or are Alex and Jennifer and the rest of Keatons playing?

I have no problem with that.
I will also cop to having a teenage crush on Meredith Baxter-Birney.
Nice win for Creighton tonight over UCLA 100-89. Creighton is always a fun team to watch .
Belmont 58 Providence 55 on FS1.
Under 3 minutes left.
Wow! Belmont back door pass to lead with seconds left and Providence hits a three at the buzzer to win!
DePaul was tied with Michigan State at half. MSU pulled away in the second half to win by 18.
Xavier with impressive performance over Cincinnati today. Quality win for conference.
Kelan Martin scored 20 points and grabbed 12 rebounds and Kamar Baldwin added 14 points and Butler crushed Saint Louis 75-45 on Saturday.
Seton Hall beat #17 Louisville. Good win for the conference.
Nova taking it to zags
Tremendous game environment at the Creighton Nebraska game. Century Link full as usual and extremely loud in a back and forth game Creighton leading by 3 with a minute to go.
Xavier looked good against Colorado. McKinley Wright continues to be impressive for Colorado.
Nova back where they belong.
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-)
