Creighton had an 11 point lead with like 5-6 minutes left in the first half, led at half by 8, and blew that lead within 2-3 minutes of the start of the second half. Business as usual for Greg McDermott.
We don't have a lot of room to talk, but his slow starts after half haven't changed.
Who do these guys root for in basketball now?

I want to say i'm surprised and that Creighton has superior talent....but in close games it comes down to coaching....Quote:

How is this possible? I thought McDermott didn't lose games when he held the opponent under 60 points:jimlad:

I don't have anything against Greg as a person, but I will laugh out loud if he leaves fair weather Cornhusker fans with no basketball team to cheer for.
UNI could go to the sweet 16 a few more years in a row, and ISU and Iowa fans would not switch teams for the winter like they do. They are simply worse fans. They only support a steady winner, they will leave Creighton in the dust after a few bad years.
You guy have to remember that Creighton has only had GMac for a little while, it has taken him a couple extra weeks to get a good team to play down to his level. They will continue to get worse as the season goes.
It was a one shot diff with fifteen seconds left. Two missed threes and it was over as Nebby scored a junker bucket.

This kind of goes to show that we really haven't beaten anyone this year. So far, against legit teams we're 0-2
Most Iowa football fans I know are UNI basketball fans.Quote:

That is going to have to be good enough for fans this year.:mad: If Hamilton or Gilstrap or White where playing, thinks had a chance to be better, but there is almost zero post presents for this team, and it really showed in the last two games.Quote:

Wow, they can't be happy about this one.
I would like to express my gratitude again towards Oregon for the first domino that started our road to Freddyball.
Creighton fans learned a valuable lesson today about halftime leads and Greg McDermott.
UNI fans just learned to appreciate Ben Jacobson even more today.
When Greg struggles this year with a team that's been decent, will anyone note that he hasn't had a winning season since leaving Ben at UNI?
Creighton missed 27 (!) threes and only made 6. Nebraska also attempted 31 three pointers. They were a combined .234 shooting threes.
