Creighton (11/9/12)

What's Creighton's home record like? I'm guessing pretty good

This will be a tough one. I just received my si issue today and was looking at our schedule. We have 6 teams in the top 65 in the nation on our schdeual. Denver would have made 7... Yet unt was not in the top 70 teams in the nation. No love! Though Mitchel had a full page article and of course it mentioned Missouri....

Bad news bro,

I got the same SI issue, and along with the Tony story was their BRACKET PREDICTION. Only 1 SBC team, and that team was MT. SI is predicting that we do not make the NCAA tourney. That is not the top 65 teams.

What's Creighton's home record like? I'm guessing pretty good

I went back & calculated via the CU media guide and we are 132-23 at home since moving to Century Link Center Omaha. I can't think of the last non-conference game we lost at home. Probably have to go back a 3-4 years when we were a pretty mediocre team.

It may have been the Kentucky game in the NIT.

There are some great videos here. YouTube interviews of Doug, HC Greg, and their PG Chapman.

Chapman mentions that he played AAU ball with CJ and JWill.

Their coach talks a lot about our talent level and what he knows about Tony.

Surprised the pregame isn't on yet. Maybe they're not gonna do a full half hour this season (the exhibition game only had 15 minutes).

On Mean Green Premium they have the Creighton announcers talking -- pretty good stuff..they said John Paxon is a scout at the game... they said they don't think North Texas will try to run a track meet cause that's where Creighton is at their best...they are concerned about Chatman and how he will handle the pressure.. they are in awe of Mitchell and his talent...

We gonna win.

Creighton announcers and head coach giving UNT lots of respect and complements.

About ready to tip. GMG

Hanging around. I think we're trying to make it till the half to regroup. They seem to be living at the stripe right now.

Gotta play defense without fouling. And get to the free throw line on the other end.

They are making us look terrible. It's hard to watch

The object of the game is to put the damn ball in the hole, and we just aren't able to find a way to do that. Sure hope things change in the second 20.

Waved off the 3. It looked late on the replay. That's big.

This is tough.

Not the start we were looking for. I honestly thought we could win. What happened?

They just look exactly like they did the first few games last year. I was hoping they would pick up where they left off. You can't win if you miss almost every jump shot.

They are way better than us. We can't score.
