Re: #8 Creighton (21-11, 10-8, 3rd BE), #9 K-State, Fri, 5:5

Oh god, did it ever carryover. I still have nightmares about those SIU defenses of old. Creighton vs Southern Illinois was one of the best mid-major rivalries back in the day. Since then, Creighton has gone on to bigger and better things and SIU has crumbled. Glad you like the scout, those guys over...

Re: #8 Creighton (21-11, 10-8, 3rd BE), #9 K-State, Fri, 5:5

Here's our fansite's breakdown of the matchup, including some interesting anecdotes about connections between the two teams (especially Weber and Lowry's days in the Valley). http://whiteandbluereview.com/pregame-primer-creighton-opens-2018-ncaa-tourney-play-against-kansas-state/ What's your thought...

2) Can we get some steals and easy buckets?

Number 2 might be a tall order. Creighton is 5th in the country in Assist-to-Turnover ratio.

Re: #8 Creighton (21-11, 10-8, 3rd BE), #9 K-State, Fri, 5:5

Pretty good discussion here and I understand it was a mistake but I lol'd at Thomas guarding Wade. Deano would have 50. That's essentially saying we should put Mawein on Foster and see what happens. I th ink the thing you all are missing is that we just finished 4th in the big XII playing with a te...

Re: #8 Creighton (21-11, 10-8, 3rd BE), #9 K-State, Fri, 5:5

Yeah, I was wondering why ESPN had him listed as a 6'0" Foward. If he's 6'10" then we'll focus double-teams on him and put Khyri on Brown.

Also, if any K-State fans were wondering how Foster has matured since leaving, this a great article for it: https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/how-a-dismissal-fatherhood-and-creighton-helped-marcus-foster-reclaim-his-passion/ and a cool story about his fatherhood: http://www.ketv.com/...

A story that may have gone unnoticed is Toby Hegner’s Mother was diagnosed with cancer and has not played close to his potential. Unfortunately we had no one else that was ready to play. His numbers were not good and he was not being mentally “there” was a factor he admitted. However, last week his...

Re: #8 Creighton (21-11, 10-8, 3rd BE), #9 K-State, Fri, 5:5

Great listing. Some biased analysis: creighton finished 6-7? i heard something like that on radio today. 6 wins: 6 point OT win at home over 1 seed Villanova Blowout at home win over 11-20 DePaul (This surprised us because DePaul is a very bad matchup for us) 1 point road win over 11-20 DePaul (See ...

Re: #8 Creighton (21-11, 10-8, 3rd BE), #9 K-State, Fri, 5:5

If I'm putting on my pessimist glasses, here's the negative against Creighton: We can't hold a lead: The Jays have blown 10+ point leads more times this season than I care to count. So many games this year were a tale of two halves. When our legs aren't under us, the shots aren't falling. The 7 days...
