Creighton had an 8-point lead, and the refs are entirely handing the game to Wisconsin. Every time the Badgers come down the floor, a bad call goes against Creighton. I can't believe McD hasn't exploded yet. It's awful.

Don't putt until the cup stops movin' -
4th foul on Echenique on a terrible call. I'm turning this off. I forgot that I can't watch the Valley play against 'power conference' teams...Don't putt until the cup stops movin' -
It doesn't matter. Layups by Jones and Chapman have given Creighton an 8 point lead just before the under 4 timeout. They're almost there.Originally posted by electricmayhem View Post
The best way to fix the refs is to win the game outright.

Two missed rebound opportunities help Wisconsin keep possession after the under 4 timeout. It seems like Wisconsin is helping Creighton out by heaving up three point attempts. Good thing they keep missing.Comment

Wisconsin now can't throw a beach ball into the ocean as they have missed several 3 pointers and layups. CU up 74-64 with a little over 2 minutes left. Not quite over, but as long as they don't do anything stupid, they should be okay.Comment

Creighton looks very good to me. I think our top 4 have a chance this Spring to go danceing. Sure thing CU &WU . Maybe ISU and UNI. I still think barring an injury to WE we have a chance to avoid Thur. night this year. Gotta have Will for that to happen.Comment

Definitely. UNI has a must win game tomorrow though against #19 Memphis. The bad news is Memphis will be unranked next week after losing to VCU and Minnesota this week. But they do have a lot of home games coming up, with a chance to win all of them except most likely the game against Louisville.Originally posted by wily coyote View Post
Okay, stupid play number one for Creighton. They give up a 3 and turn the ball over. 5 points to Wisconsin in 8 seconds. Good thing CU keeps making their free throws though!Comment

Great win Cu 84-74 anytime the Valley can beat a Big 14 team it's a great win.Comment

10 point win for the 'Jays. If teams in the Valley keep playing like this, our SOS is gonna be GREAT hahaha. Between them and the slowly moving up Wolverines.... At the end, of the storm, there's a golden sky. And the sweet silver song of the lark. Walk on, through the wind, walk on, through the rain, though your dreams be tossed, and blown. Walk on, Walk on with hope in your hearts, and you'll never walk alone!
I'm behind you 100% Bradley Braves, You'll Never Walk Alone! BEAT STATE!Comment

Agreed! A great win by Creighton, and a nice recovery day by the Valley. Wisconsin will be no worse than a top 5 Big Ten (or soon to be "Big 14 or 16"), and should be a pretty sure bet for the NCAA Tournament. Unfortunately UNI has been the sore spot, but hopefully they can salvage things tomorrow with a win over Memphis.Originally posted by wily coyote View PostComment

It was a nice win by the Blue Jays. However, the #14 ranked team in the country should beat an un-ranked team on a neutral floor.Comment

Understood, but they still needed this win to enhance their NCAA Tournament resume. The pundits will do everything possible to keep teams like Creighton out of the tournament, even established mid-major powers like them. It's much better to be safe than sorry, and Wisconsin potentially will be a great team as they mostly always are. So still a great win against an almost shoo-in for the tournament, and one that should satisfy the selection committee.Originally posted by Gary the Gargoyle View Post
I believe Creighton plays Arizona State tomorrow. That would be another nice win, though I don't know how good they are or where they were predicted to finish. Not sure if they are as good as Wisconsin is, but it would still be a solid win for Creighton if they can beat them.Comment

I know but they needed to win this game and they had a large TV audience - except a lot of the west half of the nation would have been in bed...Originally posted by Gary the Gargoyle View Post
And I thought McDermott also got some pretty one-sided calls - especially that charging foul in the first half when he ran down Berggren and it was called a block.
That's ALWAYS been the kind of call that can go both ways - but seriously ... when has a Valley teaam ever got those calls when playing a B10 team? Never...so the glow on McD has gotten a little "protection".Comment

I think Creighton has moved beyond needing "profile wins", but I understand what you're saying.Comment
