PC was pretty hideous last night but after CU lost to GW a few weeks ago for two in a row you might have found some CU fans hitting the panic button and I bet X fans were pooping their collective pants after USC. You never can tell. PC could right the ship and win 7 or 8.

PC's problem is their star player Cotton is tiny. By the time PC comes to Omaha for the last game of the year he'll be a wraith! They rode him hard last night in a lost cause where he should have sat the last eight minutes to conserve himself.

Very different situations…Creighton has most of their team back and 2 of them are senior veterans. 1 of those seniors is the best player in college basketball. They are expected to shoot the lights out every night…they are that good at shooting. And you know Creighton has the skill to consistently beat the best teams. I don't see that with PC. They are certainly no pushover and still a tough out especially for my Johnnies, but I predicted PC's fall weeks ago going into the UMass matchup. They were red-hot to start the year but they really didn't get tested. They are now getting tested and are not the same. Look for them to be a .500 or just under .500 Big East team.
Let's Go Johnnies!

I'd say under .500. Have no depth and will be worn down and deflated. Can't lose two Top 50 guards in this league and survive.
