I've always enjoyed Big Mac's style of coaching up his team. Aggressive...pushing the ball up the floor...lots of movement. I like this Creighton team. If they are the 5th place team in this league, 1-4 will have a great year. This might be the year where 1-5 is within a couple games of each other--a bunch of 12-6 to 11-7 teams.

I've always thought Thomas was a baller. Love that kid's game. Hoping TH is not seriously hurt. Thinking front court depth is pretty important for this team. But great job Jays.

Huge props on an important 3-1 night.

Seton Hall ground out a fantastic ballsy win while getting totally hosed by the zebras. The charge called on Carrington after he dished to the Pirate in the corner... at that point i had seen enough. I didn't watch the 2nd half out of frustration, and can't believe they overcame the B-S.

Georgetown looked great. Yeah, Mount St Mary's is weak, but the Hoyas played fast and loose and confident.

I taped but didn't watch Butler, which stayed close to Maryland... well, i saw at the end of the half a nice drive by Martin, then a beautiful running bankshot right near the buzzer.

i don't get the B1G Network, but Creighton, wow, freakin key win last night. Huge road win vs a ranked opponent. Huge for the conference.

I noticed last night that collge hoops was only found on FS1 and FS2. ESPN-U and CBS had MAC football. And Espn as The Deuce had something else.

saw Creighton moved up by 4 spots in KP last night up to 38 now.

Have a great shot next week to make some serious noise- 1st off vs a very mediocre UCLA team(had to go to OT to beat Central Arkanas last night), and then a great shot vs either Baylor or Wisconsin. (Baylor beat Central Arkansas btw 107-66). UCLA is big though- 7 footer, 6'11 guy, then off the bench a 6'10 and 6'9 guy. Not the team you'd want Hegner to miss.

Central Arkansas shot 18-35 from 3 last night.

Georgetown shot it well from deep, tonight, as well. As, far as margin was concerned, it was good for Georgetown. But, I'll still wait until I see them play someone who is even considered 'decent.' Georgetown should have no more than one loss going into conference play.

I also hope you're quick to report to the board after a loss being you like to go idle after losses or when things go south. ;)


Definitely won't be. And that's my prerogative. Don't buy into some social contract that I should have to come here and take some sort of licking if my team loses. I only like to talk about positive things. I don't feel the need to vent here if we lose. I'm sure you guys will be able to adequately rip my team in my absence. ;)

That is why this homer wears Creighton Blue shades. ;)
