Game Thread: Nebraska vs. Creighton

[Jack_John_Mark]

Meh

They're 6-2 right now and they were 7-3 at this time last season. They lost their first 5 conference games last year and really didn't get going until mid January.

It's not the start I was hoping for, but I still think they're ahead of where they were then.

Miles will figure out what this group does best.

I'm just saying..........19 wins might not get us in this year after the showing we had last year in the first round.

It's all about getting 20 wins, and it gets hard to do when you lose OOC games.

That game also hurts because it was at PBA.

It truly makes us look like an NIT team, because Creighton is seriously no NCAA Tourney team this year.

Cretin's better than people thought they'd be.
Whether that makes them good or not remains to be seen. They played #18 Oklahoma to 2 points.

I don't think they're very good.

Hell, I watched them play less than average ball last night. Lucky for them Nebraska couldn't hit anything.

We missed wide open shot after wide open shot.

They are certainly better than I thought they would be.

Those were 2 teams last night who played like teams outside the top 100 in RPI.

That was some of the shittiest basketball I've seen in a while.

They beat Oklahoma...or is that what you meant? For some reason I read that as them losing by 2...

I didn't know they'd won, no. I just remember hearing about it on the radio when I was down in OKC.

Cretin's gonna be a tough out for the foreseeable future. They landed a couple of good players recruiting that Nebraska was after.

I agree both teams played like shat Sunday night. I've noticed every time Nebraska tries to play the fast game they look like shat. Petteway needs to stop trying to win POY every time he gets the ball.
Slow it down.

Like I said before, I believe Miles will figure out what they do best and they'll turn things around.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Yea we'll be fine. Just need to win our OOC games from here on out though or it's gonna bite us at the end of the season.

Petteway is the problem right now and he's gonna have to grow up quick. If he doesn't I can guarantee you he'll be back for his Senior season.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

If and when we do face Wichita State, that is gonna be a tough game.

It's a chance to get things turned around.
