What a great win for Creighton and for the Big East. A strong, balanced, deep league. Impressive play from both teams

Welcome to the NCAA Tournament Creighton. You have locked up your bid!

What a great game

The Top seed is in Xavier's hands. Time to step up and not choke up. We need a new leader at the top. This is not the Big 12!
Stony Brook Red, Connecticut Blue, and Big East basketball!

Seton Hall and Butler are just playing for seeding as well. Providence probably needs to win 1 out 3 remaining. Marquette needs a 3 game winning streak.

I am sure Xavier fans are happy today!

Is Pittsburgh the worst major conference team in the country? I don't care how good UVA's defense is, 7 points in a half is truly pathetic.

Just got home from the game, WOW did that really happen!?! And just as the Jays looked like they were going to fold after three Big East losses in a row, they go and pull off an incredible upset over “the Champs” today!

An amazing atmosphere today as well in the CenturyLink Center, the place was hopping today! Jays played really well, gutsy win over a juggernaut opponent... the freshmen (Epperson, Ballock, and TSA) looked amazing today.

Time for another beer, or maybe a 12 pack! It’s a great day to be a Bluejay fan, and I LOVE this conference! What a day!

Been on the road all day - missed the game. CBS & BJU said it was a great game. It was vs the Champs, so it had to have been. Will watch the BJU replay. Hopefully see Nova again, in the BET Championship game.

That's what you call a Jesuit Assist.

Happy - yes.

Preferred way to get there - no.

It's not over yet. I do have to imagine that PAYBACK TIME is facing Providence in the Cintas Center. Then a road trip to Chicago to finish it.

I'm with Dash that it's not the way I wanted it to happen but in talking to some of my Musketeer brethren most of us sensed the schedule didn't really help Nova by pitting them against, arguably, the three toughest opponents in the last part of the conference schedule. I don't think the conference did them any favors by having them face X, CU and SH in the latter part of their schedule. I, personally, still feel Nova is the top dog in our conference but I was just curious what NovaChap, Gumby and the rest of Nova nation felt about the way the schedule panned out.

No complaints about the schedule whatsoever. Not gonna sugar coat it, we've been spoiled with so much regular season success unchallenged. It'd feel oddly refreshing to enter the BET #2.
