Sorry if my opinion doesn't mesh with yours. In a 21 point game (that wasn't really even that close), does it really matter? Life is too short. But whatever.

Normally, you don't want to play a team three times as it's hard to get a three game sweep. But if your Creighton, you'll take Nova in the BET. They didn't just beat them - they destroyed them twice. If you're the Jays, you'll take the Cats every game for the rest of the season if you could.

No. We still have great respect for V. Good luck the rest of the way

I'm sure you respect them, has nothing to do with that. Whatever it is, the match-up between the Jays and the Cats heavily favors the Jays. I think if the two teams met again, the Jays would come in with rocketing confidence and I would have to think Nova would be just the opposite. It's not like the games were even close.

cool catch. That is the dumbest chant ever and CU fans for the most don't like that (though we don't have a ton of experience like some BE teams beating top 10 teams). Thank goodness our fans know not to rush the court after a top #6 win. though we haven't been there as many of you, we do no know how to act like we have been there before!

I was watching Arizona at Stanford a few weeks ago, when Arizona was still undefeated, and the Stanford fans started chanting "overrated".

It was with seven minutes to go, and Stanford was up by two points.

Aren't Stanford students supposed to be smart?

I think the word came out 3 times. With a wave of his hand, McD shut up 18000.

I didn't know he did that. The chant was only coming from the student section...I think the rest of the crowd thought it was a lame thing to do as well. Extremely glad Coach Mac put an end to it before it really even got going.

It helped that there were FTs being shot on Creighton's end of the floor, so you could see Coach McD pretty clearly as soon as the chant started.

Jays moving up in the rankings. You're getting a little too close to SLU for my tastes. :)
