Creighton

[Markedman]

Anyone dreaming about Creighton beating Bucky must have forgot to tell Baylor......

I thought this was going to be a bad matchup for Creighton.....still early but Creighton's D being exposed.......Baylor is playing really well right now

Another poor showing for the Big East... Definitely bad timing for the league to have a down year.

I did too markedman. To be honest, I think Baylor would be a worse match up for UW than Creighton.

Creighton not shooting very well. Not sure a zone will work for 40 minutes against the Jays, though Baylor is smart to get right in Wragge's grill. Still a long way to go.

Perhaps Baylor would consider wearing Villanova uniforms to make the Jays feels more comfortable.

[Alan Bykowski, "brewcity77"]

Made me LOL Father Dan :D

If Baylor can successfully zone Creighton, they should be able to do the same against UW. UW and Creighton are very similar offensively.

[Markedman]

This is embarrassing......

I think this game kind of shows why scouts don't think McDermott will be a star at the next level......length and athleticsm of Baylor really giving him trouble

[Alan Bykowski, "brewcity77"]

Baylor can't keep this shooting up all game. But if Creighton can't hit the broad side of a barn it won't matter.

[Markedman]

Baylor with a great defensive game plan and the players to make it work. As Kerr said they are taking away the 3 point shot and have shot blockers to protect the rim......Creighton is going to have to shoot midrange jump shots and they weren't taking them in the first half. Even if they shoot great they still have to stop Baylor.....don't see that happening.

They've cut the lead to 19!!!

Baylor and Oregon seem kind of interchangeable so maybe UW will be used to it.

If UVA and CU lose both the ACC and BE will be history - what a difference a year makes with the anniversary coming up of MU's win Sweet 16 win over ACC champs Miami.

Started to get into an offensive rhythm, but cannot get stops on D. Maybe try a box and one and always face guard Heslip.

Ain't going to happen tonight I'm thinking. McBuckets seems a little shell-shocked.

No, this is I thought would happen more often to Creighton is Big East play. I know Mark and Ted are high on Greg McDermott, but I fear that he may be above his level again. Love their skill, but they need a serious athleticism upgrade to compete on a national scale.

[Alan Bykowski, "brewcity77"]

I was starting to think they offense was immune to a complete shutdown like this. They have beat man, beat zone, beat teams that shut down their threes with inside shooting and beat teams almost exclusively beyond the arc. Surprised anyone, especially a bad defensive team like Baylor, would so thoroughly neutralize the Jays.

[MUfan12]

You just know Baylor will shoot like 30% against Wisconsin.

[Phantom Warrior]

This was also virtually a home game for Baylor, which should not happen to a 3-seed.

Like when MU had to play Murray State in Louisville?

Thought the exact same thing when they tipped off tonight.
