And the thing really is, prestige wise, having an extra sweet 16 team would mean FAR more than just a team in the FF that a lot of folks don't even watch.

Huh? Having 2 teams in sweet 16 is more prestigious than 1 in the Final Four? Uh... no.

I assume he means the first four? Because if he's referring to the final four comment makes zero sense...

Yes, FF there meant First Four.

The problem with Creighton with them losing last night is that they are being judged how they are after the injury. They are now only 3-4 since the injury, with 2 of the 3 wins vs DePaul. Their seeding would really get lowered if they don't pick up some wins here. They're safe in making the tourney, but the seed won't be anything like it really should be due to the play post injury(which is what the committee evaluates).
