Line: Butler -2.5

going with home teams tonight. I was 1-1 last night. Hope I go 1-1 again tonight

CU has half a chance if Ponds is out again. But, with the defense we have shown, and then going on the road, only way I see a positive outcome for the fellas in blue tonight is for SJ to come apart at the seams following back to back losses.

Hearing Ponds is likely to play now but who knows? Creighton will be an injured animal in a corner. They will be angry. We have to match that anger...had Nova on ropes several times but could not finish then give a game to DePaul after Ponds was out at home which was not the plan at all. By the way, was actually talking to a friend recently about how cool Creighton fans were whenever I meet them when I'm in the city around BET time. Hope to run into more this year! Creighton has had bad luck with injuries but they will be a force next year most likely.

I'm thinking Jays and Blue Demons win tonight.....SJU has lost 6 straight to Creighton so I'm not too optimistic.....

Ponds plays Johnnies win, Ponds doesn't play the Jays win. Simple as that. I'm guessing they will wait till starting lineups are announced. I've noticed Carnasecca now give St. John's a home court advantage this year, the crowds are 1,000 times better than they were when Lav was coach.

Ponds will play

And Johnnies win.

Was a must win and we got it. Great playing!

Never heard of #11 on creighton until tonight but lord it is scary when he gets an inch of space

Good game Creighton, I know you guys are missing some players and the game was way closer than the final score indicated. One thing that surprised me was how quick Creighton is. Krampelj is a beast and there are lots of lethal shooters on the Jays. Mac is a good coach, give him more time.

You are too nice Mayhem. This team is a hot mess right now, and one player injured isn't The reason. We have been just as bad with Jefferson in the floor. Coaches are lost, players are lost, I wouldn't be surprised if our team Chaplin fumbled the pregame prayer. We are 44% 3 point team, but we go 55% one game and 30% the next or worse, and we have almost no defense - not to mention putting together a team that can't have more than one guy on the floor over 6'4". Not where this program should be. But, you know, let it fly!
