Lol…did they really not call that foul? Branch had 3 Blue Jays mauling him inside... :shock:

Our athleticism is clearly bothering them, but we are still allowing them open shots thus the score right now. We need to stop settling for stupid 15 ft jumpers and get them in foul trouble. This is a game we are supposed to lose. We have nothing to lose. Take it right at them. They are more finesse than gritty contact. Playing Creighton is like playing some kid in College Hoops 2k8 with the cheat code for 3's turned on. It's insane how easy they make it look. SJ needs to wreak havoc like the first minute. Don't let them get set, get up in their grill and let the athleticism cause problems.

By the way, the fans that say losing McDermott won't be a huge difference are nuts. This is easily the best player who will/have ever walked through your doors.

McBuckets on fire early, very fast 12 pts. Looks like Dougie's going to fall right behind JJ Redick on the all-time scoring chart after tonight.

Stupid foul by Pointer…he always does this crap. Shouldn't be a technical though…kudos to Doug for not flopping though…he definitely could have drawn one there. Pointer you moron…

This is Creighton…replace McDermott with Tucker lol

Has Creighton been called for 1 foul? They have hacked us at least 3-4 times making layups. Not 1 call. As long as they let McDermott get hacked with no call on the other end I will be happy. McDermott is their entire team right now. Make someone else beat us and we have a great chance.

St. John's keeping it close.

We are down by 4 or 5 and our scorers haven't even scored. Don't know whether to be scared for our offense (again) or happy with our D.

Readily admit haven't watched much ST Johns bball in the last decade. When did the blue come into the unis so prominently, or at all?

I count 8 SJ drives where the ball handler put his shoulder in the defender's chest. You're right. The jays aren't tough. We're getting jobbed in our own house. Complete BS.

Until shoulder #9.
