Creighton was outrebounded by an undersized Missouri Western 47-32. Attendance was 15,099. I think this game was part of the season-ticket package?

Why do you suppose P' came off the bench?

Why do you suppose P' came off the bench?

Because he has a bad attitude and probably did something to put him in the doghouse again.

yup..P'Allen did not start......but then neither did Cavel...so I think this is Dana sending a message...

but Lawson also only played 13 minutes...and he wasn't mentioned at all in the story of their intrasquad scrimmage......
so what's up??
Some of the numbers certainly show evidence of lack of depth in the paint....

here are some stats that are pretty surprising...but may be due to Lawson's small minutes..
Rebounds: Missouri Western 44 - Creighton 28
Offensive rebounds: Missouri Western 19 - Creighton 10
POINTS IN PAINT: Missouri Western 42 - Creighton 38
2ND CHANCE POINTS: Missouri Western 22 - Creighton 10

Witter is not going to start once the season begins. P'Allen will.

BU fans are relieved, Cavel kills us...

I don't know who Ashford is, but he already scares me

Creighton is going to have a tough time against bigger teams in the valley. In that regard, I think they are overrated.

I know. I wish he brought the same level of intensity and concentration in all other games.

Ashford was recruiting by and committed to Bobby Knight at Texas Tech. He ended up not qualifying academically and had to go the JUCO route. He has P'Allen type athleticism and is smooth - fun to watch. I suspect it will take him a while to come along (around 1/2 the season) like it usually does with JUCOs at CU.

Ashford was recruiting by ...Bobby Knight at Texas Tech. ...

according to the experts on one other local board, so was Breland McKnight...

But we're the ones that are being picked 6th, based mostly on "question marks" in the frontcourt.

Besides UNI there are tons of question marks from every team at the 4-5 position. I also believe CU will not be contesting for the top spot this year.

1st time I've laughed out loud today. That was terrible, funny, but terrible.
