Big game. I predict lots of shots from 3. Cold Friday night in Omaha; I expect the place to be rocking. I was really impressed by Butler in the first half of the game earlier this week. If that team shows up, they can certainly steal one here. But I'll predict the Jays protect their home court. Martin K., the star of the game...

Pink Out game is always a great atmosphere. Should be a fun one tonight, Creighton can jump right back into the pack with a win tonight.

Who is Martin K? (Kelan Martin graduated last year.) If our perimeter D holds serve and we have an ok offensive day we win. But Cu can go off from the 3 point line, so I have no confidence in that prediction. We are a very inconsistent team this year on O and D!

Nice rebound for CU after getting smoked at Hinkle.

That's why you are the man, Gumby! Good Call. Plus, we have a freshman pt guard who is going to be one of the best in the Big East in the future. Very solid and mature. We also have Epperson (soph) center who is now out for the year and jr. Jefferson ( who has been starting) who has been out the last couple of weeks and expect back in another 2-3 weeks. Very young, but love our team.

Credit to Creighton for getting the win, but an ugly game overall. Butler was fortunate to even be competitive in it considering how badly everyone outside of Baldwin was shooting. Butler's just an awful road team, and they've never played well in Omaha.

Creighton went from last place all alone on Monday to tied for third by Friday in the space of two games. That's how volatile things are below the top two spots. Unless something unforeseen happens with Marquette and Nova, they seem set at the top, The rest of the teams could all end up in any spot 3-10 at this point!
