[4everwarriors]

Anyone else watchin' this s hit? 7/7 from 3 land. 21-5 Jays

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Creighton up 21 5...5 minutes into the game. Creighton's Wragge has already nailed 5 3s from deeeeep. Team is 7-7 from 3. Fun to watch.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Wragge nails another.

[Nevada233]

27-10 Wow lets hope that trickles over to this weekend and we can beat nova...

But creighton can shoot....

We cant

[4everwarriors]

Wragge 7/7

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

And another. 7 for 7 for three for the kid.

[willie warrior]

Where is the guy that said BigEast was garbage? Make it mandatory he watches this game. The only thing Garbage about the Conference is all the Prognosticators that said we would win it.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

27-10 Wow lets hope that trickles over to this weekend and we can beat nova...

We cant

They sure can. 11-13 from deep. Only 2 2 pt attempts.

He should watch the other teams play like we do!

Instead of judging a whole conference based off the struggling eagles.


Wraggie has 7-7 from 3 point land. With 10 min left in the half. Unreal

[bradley center bat]

I love that Gus and Raft are on FS1. Gives the Big Monday feel.

[Desert_warrior]

And only 3 fouls between both teams.

[Nevada233]

Buzz should have marquette watch this game. The ball movement and point guard play. 1st Class

[jesmu84]

well yes. ball movement and PG play would help. So would having someone on our team capable of going 7/7 from 3.

[IL Warrior]

This is spectacular. His 7 3's in the first 10 minutes of this game would place him T-4th on the Warriors for the season...

[ChicosBailBonds]

Not going to lie to you, I enjoy seeing teams with basketball players winning and not just athletes that try to be basketball players.

[Nevada233]

well yes. ball movement and PG play would help. So would having someone on our team capable of going 7/7 from 3.

We did. But he plays for the Toronto Raptors lol Steve Novak.....

On this roster...... Not so much. Lol. Imma continue to watch this creighton show tho their really making a name for themselves..

[ChicosBailBonds]

Amazing what can be accomplished by basketball players playing basketball.....it's not always about great athletes playing basketball.  Pretty to watch this.

[Nevada233]

This is spectacular. His 7 3's in the first 10 minutes of this game would place him T-4th on the Warriors for the season...

Wow that stat. Will make you want to close your laptop and throw it out the window!!

[PGsHeroes32]

This is spectacular. His 7 3's in the first 10 minutes of this game would place him T-4th on the Warriors for the season...

Whats even more spectacular is I was just watching UNC and Tokoto made his 6th 3 of the year....good for 3rd on the team.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Yikes

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

CU up 47 21 w 6.5 to go n the 1st!

[ChicosBailBonds]

Shows you how so many top teams are taking the best athletes, guys that dominate in high school because they have superior athletic skills.  Doesn't mean they are the best basketball players.

This is enjoyable to watch.

[Nevada233]

Dear

Brooks or Chatman off Creighton..... Would you any of you
Like to transfer. We got 40 pg minutes a night available.

I thought not......

Them boys can play.

[jesmu84]

We did. But he plays for the Toronto Raptors lol Steve Novak.....

On this roster...... Not so much. Lol. Imma continue to watch this creighton show tho their really making a name for themselves..

did you watch that "show" lose to providence?

be more transparent. please.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

did you watch that "show" lose to providence?

be more transparent. please.

Uhh....creighton IS putting on a show. You watched them all year cept the MU game?

[Nevada233]

did you watch that "show" lose to providence?

be more transparent. please.

Providence is 13-5.

Creighton is 15-3

Thats not much of a mind blowing loss. . . If they lost to St Johns maybe but providence plays.  

[jesmu84]

I agree. sometimes it's tough to tell though, isn't it? especially from a high school age kid. You could end up with an athlete who never translates to the next step or someone who excels. I would bet there's hundreds of examples on both sides of the spectrum in the last decade.

[PGsHeroes32]

Creighton's defense makes me weary of picking them to win multiple march games

but man, if they are on don't even bother showing up I don't care if you are Arizona, Kansas, MU or Southern. You won't win.

Not usually a good recipe to win 6 in a row but any given game they are capable of beating anyone.

[Tugg Speedman]

Hopefully this means no double OT to block our broadcast tonight.

CU would torch any team in the country the way they played so far in the first half.

[4everwarriors]

Gotta give to Creighton. They have an interestin' style of ball. They play hard, quick, ad shoot the 3 ball. Fun to watch, but not a recipe for a championship. They really do take the game to you and you better be ready.

Well stated.

[Nevada233]

Uhh....creighton IS putting on a show. You watched them all year cept the MU game?

Exactly. They are steamrolling the #1 team in the conference and 4th team in the nation.....

This game will slow down. Obviously. But Creighton is legit shooting wise. Athletically not so much.... But Wraggie just hit his 8th 3 pointer.

 I guess you missed the beatdown they put on us a couple weeks ago.  

[jesmu84]

Uhh....creighton IS putting on a show. You watched them all year cept the MU game?

Yes. And?

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Nm

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Yes. And?

Never mind. Misread your post.

[jesmu84]

Yeah several times. They have one of the best offenses in the country, but have very suspect D. Theyre easily one of the top 20 teams in the country. Walter white explained it quite well a few posts ago.

I guess it just depends on your preference. Sure Creighton could beat any team if they're on from 3 - like tonight. But if they aren't hitting? And with suspect D? The good MU teams in the last few years could overcome poor 3pt shooting with good D and other ways to score. I'd rather have a team like that that can withstand an off shooting night.

[jesmu84]

Never mind. Misread your post.

no worries.

[Nevada233]

Villanova wont quit. This will be a good game.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Nova finished half on a 22-7 run

[drewm88]

39 3's attempted in the half.

Creighton 14-22 (Wragge 8-10)
Nova 6-17

[T.V. Diener 34]

Those comments on the halftime show just another kick in the nuts so far this season.

[Jay Bee]

Wragge 8/10 but add in another Minnesotan - RS FR Isaiah Zierden, and the Minnesota boys are 10/13 from deep.

[mu-rara]

This is your 3rd response saying the same thing.  You made your point in the first one.  Some of us might think you're enjoying Buzz struggling.

[club cheezes VIP lounge]

wow, this is a scary good performance from UC

[EnderWiggen]

Yea, this game got ugly in a hurry.  I suddenly feel much better about our loss to them.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Did Wragge play HS at EP?

[Lennys Tap]

Villanova wont quit. This will be a good game.

90-50 with 6 minutes left.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

90-50 with 6 minutes left.

Hard to make it a game when the other teams hits 21 threes in the first 30 minutes, but Nova has had a tough half here.

[Lennys Tap]

Nova closes on an 18-6 run to only lose by 28.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

This is your 3rd response saying the same thing.  You made your point in the first one.  Some of us might think you're enjoying Buzz struggling.

Not me.

[MURFC]

My god.  When Creighton is shooting like that, they can beat anyone in the country...and handily.  They just embarassed Villanova in Philly.

[Lennys Tap]

Hard to make it a game when the other teams hits 21 threes in the first 30 minutes, but Nova has had a tough half here.

Can you imagine what this board would say about our 3 point defense if that happened to MU?

[Atticus]

Get outta town! You're pull me leg, aren't you?

[keefe]

A friend of mine coaches one of the state's better programs, is the son of a Big East coach, and played PG for Boylan loves McDermott's game planning. Watches and tapes every Creighton game. Says the CU game plan is a blueprint for aggressive traditional teams who can shoot it.

[MURFC]

Get outta town! You're pull me leg, aren't you?

I wasn't going for any great insight here and certainly stating the obvious.  It was just an incredible performance.  McDermott called the dogs off with several minutes left.  They had scored over 80 with 10 minutes left in the game and against a good defensive team.

[Atticus]

There is a two page thread in the superbar. 

[ChicosBailBonds]

This is your 3rd response saying the same thing.  You made your point in the first one.  Some of us might think you're enjoying Buzz struggling.

They were responses in different threads that got merged later.

Some of you might think if it was the middle of the day and I said day, you would scream it is night.  So, I really don't care.

[MURFC]

Ahhh...my bad.  Should have looked there first.

[77ncaachamps]

Instead of FTs, maybe Buzz should have the team practice shooting threes!

[keefe]

day

NIGHT!!!

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Anyone think Creighton is overrated now?

[🏀]

Anyone think Creighton is overrated now?

Yeah. They won't make a deep run living behind the arc.

[Lennys Tap]

Yeah. They won't make a deep run living behind the arc.

They could win 2 for sure. They could lose to almost anyone in the tourney but if they're hot they can beat anybody, including the #1 seeds.

[MU82]

Gives me hope for our game against Villanova ... especially if we can make 21 threes!

Hell, guy that I am, I'd settle for 19 or 20!!!
