Boo and Dink let's keep the personal stuff out of this.
 
3 of our starters(Posh, Cole, GWill) giving us absolutely nothing.  You cant win this way.

Put the ball in the damn hoop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

56 point at the half. May need to tighten up the D a bit.  :).

Even the announcers are saying we are not getting any 50-50 balls.  That's about lack of desire!  So frustrating!
 
At this point I'd prefer to watch Dink and Boo go 5 rounds in the octagon over this team

Never get too optimistic, me included, about Juco All Americans necessarily becoming competent BE level players year one or sometimes season two for that matter. Juco ball in last five years or so has really eroded.

Agree, no longer are the Billy Goodwins, Boo Harvey's and Walter Berry's going that route...maybe someone should tell Anderson and his staff.
 
 
Anderson will have his work cut out for him trying to keep the players' heads up. It is one thing to be outclassed, but scrappy teams find a way to play hard, defend and compete. It appears this group has a long way to go with that. Yes, Creighton is better, playing at home, but it should not be this easy. Without their top player to boot. Oh well
 
If am Anderson, I would give one message at half time.  If you give up a wide open three point look, you're coming to the bench.  No more.

I think they're just saving the press and defense for the second half. 20 minutes of hell. 

I remember the Butler game on New Years Eve last year.  We looked outclassed in the first half and made an incredible comeback.  Was a different team, but who knows.    I'd settle for seeing some fire in our bellies and playing a competitive, tough second half.

It was an interesting point, but our problems are so beyond crowd noise.

I agree about the lack of dependability of  JUCOs and played little confidence in them or any other JUCO.  

My disappointment is the lack of improvement in returning players Easlington, Roberts, Williams, and Caraher, and flattfooted play of veteran transfer Toro.
