I don't think this BU team has ever lacked confidence. I think winning last night would have given us a decided mental edge over CU, knowing that no matter how well CU played, that BU could and would come back. Unfortunately now, I think CU has the confidence to come back against BU even if down by multiple possessions with little time left, and BU has some doubt as to whether or not they can close out this team even when playing without their best player (Stinnett). Yes, it was an entertaining game. But I think some of us are taking this 'moral victory' thing too far. This wasn't Drake we were playing, nor was it some top 10 juggernaut. It was a very average and inexperienced Creighton team that was bad enough to lose to Evansville. Shorthanded or not, BU should have won this game. We had every chance in the world, and once again beat ourselves. I'm sorry if I can't feel good about it, but I just can't.
