Creighton beats UNI 68-59.

Creighton goes to 13-3, and 4-2 in the MVC. Though they have 1 home loss (to Illinois State), they now have 3 road wins (at MSU, WSU, and now UNI). No other team has 3 road wins in the MVC.

Beatdown city tonight in the MVC. Expected outcomes in all 3 games IMO. UNI and Indiana St are Thursday-bound, and despite their fast start, I think Indiana St is too.

I'm thinkin you meant Evansville, UNI, and Ind. State. I agree with ya, I think we'll get it together as well and the Shox will be the fourth team playing on Thursday night. Gotta keep the turnaround going tomorrow!

You are correct, I meant Evansville.

Looking at Indiana St's schedule, they've begun a murderous stretch where they play 6 of 8 on the road. This stretch finally ends when the Braves head to Terre Haute on February 12. Hopefully by then their spirit is broken, and BU can get their 2nd consecutive win at the Hullman Center. We should be healthy by then, and I am optimistic that we will have equaled or surpassed the Sycs by then.

The Abyss beckons In St, UNI, WSU, E-Ville...in that order!
