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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

39 3's attempted in the half.

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

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

Jay Bee · « **Reply #41 on:** January 20, 2014, 07:05:09 PM »

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

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

Did Wragge play HS at EP?

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 · « **Reply #48 on:** January 20, 2014, 07:56:59 PM »

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