(BET) Creighton, Sat., Mar. 15, 6:30p, FOX

I feel like we’ve been here before. So I still think we are going to win.

However, this is EXACTLY my bad dream for the NCAA Tournament. Go this cold and you might go home. If it ain’t falling gotta go to the basket harder. Lots of settling so far.

Vince can't be in at all in the second half.

It’s crazy. We have one guy that doesn’t fit in at all. His basketball IQ is nonexistent.

 

[SJUWillRockNYC]

We're a 2nd half team, take their will from them.

 

[NCJohnnie]

I would not mind left my getting a shot the way smith and Wilcher are shooting

Doubt it tonight. Rick going with the core guys

 

[rehobie]

Zuby only 2 rebounds, Ayo 5.

 

[Redmen88]

Zuby obviously needs to take those foul line in jumpers

Agree. Step up to the line and take a free throw. I think RP fixes that during the break.

 

[SJU2000alum15]

Missing wide open jumpers and not getting any offensive rebounds is why we’re down. I just think we will wear them down and take this game in second half.

 

[NCJohnnie]

Zuby will determine whether we win this one. He needs to get Kalk out of his head in 2nd half

 

[paultzman]

One caution, CU shoots threes well, but only 4/13 at half. Odds say that may improve.

 

[SJU2000alum15]

In NCAA tourney though we won’t have to play 3 days in a row that has a lot to do with our shooting.

 

[Jack Williams]

To me the key is not as much Zubs, it’s the Kadary/RJ/Scott/Sim/Smith group hitting some open midranges that will be there all game

 

[SJU2000alum15]

Exactly they are giving us mid range jumpers that is usually our bread and butter gotta think we will hit those in second half. Big shout out to Ayo his two threes kept us in it.

 

[Larry Wright]

Our best offense is rebounding missed shots
They are keeping us off boards

 

[logen]

Creighton has committed one foul?????

I don’t know if they should have more but they don’t reach, Kalk does not throw his hands down to block shots, he properly keeps distance from shooters and jumps straight up.
They are disciplined because they are not trying to generate offense from their defense. Just a different style and approach than SJU.

 

[lawmanfan]

They are giving us the shot from the FT line to top of the key. The halftime adjustment has to be to either take that shot and make it whether that is Zuby doing it or letting him down screen and having Kadary or RJ or Scott take it. Or Sim but I can't trust him tonight.

Take what the D is giving you. We are defending fine. Just gotta make some shots and that is the available shot.

Take it, make it, win the game.

 

[Knight]

Zuby needs to hit some short jumpers to get Kalk away from the defensive boards.

 

[Bobby123]

Lefty

Doubt it tonight. Rick going with the core guys

agree. Just looking for something that can hit some shots. AYO 2 for 2.

 

[Mean Gene]

Ayo proving to be more than just serviceable at this level. He’s a rotation player.

 

[bamafan]

They have 5 defenders standing under the basket and we can’t hit a mid range jumper for doo doo. Ridiculous we can’t take advantage of this defense.

 

[Knight]

Spacing could be better. Run them ragged.
