Ashworth hit a three with one second left before half Creighton is up 36–34, feels like Creighton should be up 10 to 15 points with all the rebounds they’ve had but they keep jacking threes and missing.

Hope the Jays come out like Thursday and get the ball inside to Kalk to start.

Not to mention that every single game is televised. Back in the Valley maybe 5-6 per year were on tv and usually ESPN, which really sucks anymore. The amount of money that CU gets just from tv deals makes it worth it financially, but exposure to the eastern US is amazing as well.

I was just talking with some fans yesterday. I think the only thing I miss about the Missouri Valley days is arch madness in St. Louis and being able to drive to away games.

Haha yes 8:40 CT

skinzfan23

Jays play at 8:40 CST on Saturday.

Oregon is playing well and could be dangerous but for once Kalk is going up against a big guy and that can’t shoot outside so he will be anchored in the post like CU likes. Should help our guards out some as well since they can guard the 3 closer and let players drive knowing Kalk is back there.

I was thinking the same thing, probably just a few more floors.

Yes, looking at the box score Creighton dominated the game. It’s just that they had 14 turnovers which can’t happen against a better team.

Good win for the Jays today, glad they finally pulled away. It would’ve been nice to get the starters some more rest.

skinzfan23

I wish they would clean up that public parking area. When we were down there just 2 weeks ago, there is broken glass everywhere, and bums sleeping under the layer of the parking area.

At least according to wowt the second half of next week looks fine, pretty close to normal and low to mid 50’s.

Just watched the segment from KETV tonight about the beam signing and Stothert said there is much more to come for Omaha development. No specifics provided but between this and her recent segment on grow Omaha, she has me excited.

Man, I thought selling the Omaha March madness tickets for a huge gain would be way easier. I was trying to list them as all-session on tickpick but no one is buying.

If anyone would like to buy them, just let me know, I could save you a ton on fees....even if it is just for single game.

skinzfan23

I know that there are a ton of great players out there, but Kolek made 2nd team and Newton from Uconn made first team. Baylor is better than Newton is almost every single category.

I vote that they should build this for the new control tower: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/proxy/61jgTh3pX2SxiZGggrUIb7getc17iN7eTnY-2JTGPOClwPtxoBTzjkX54waZTcX_zQ only joking, if anything, maybe they will update some of the technology they use in the control tower, but definitely not building ...

This is the area that I am most excited to see what the streetcar can do. We go to shows at the rose and that stretch of Farnam looks absolutely sad. Thankfully the hotels a few blocks down were built but this area leaves a lot to be desired. Also wish that they could tear out the building where the...

We just went there a few weeks ago for the first time in probably 4-5 years. I remember when they first opened, the prices were very low especially for the amt of food that you got. Like everywhere else that has changed. Still a decent value but nothing amazing like it used to be. The food overall w...

Yeah DePaul and Georgetown brought nothing to the conference. It is crazy that St Johns didn't make it. I believe their NET ranking is 32.

skinzfan23

Heck, even Pepperjax had a huge line when they opened their Bellevue location. Happens all the time with new to market places. We thought about going to Hawaiian Bros, but I think we will wait until it dies down.

Creighton's Baylor Scheierman now showing at March Madness

skinzfan23

Was hoping for a game in Salt Lake City, mostly because airfare is much cheaper from Omaha. I have Thurs and Fri off and was thinking of going but the cheapest round-trip is almost $900 which is pretty high for a domestic flight. Not to mention, hotel, food and game tickets it could add up really qu...

"The City Streets Department says this damage is likely happening when a polymer coating fails and comes off the road. Right now there is no timeline to fix it, but the bridge is still safe to drive on." Seems like that coating comes off every bridge they put it on? What is the point of i...

Most streetcars have a max speed of 30-35 mph, some can go up to 45. I just think when you do research (and even listen to how the streetcar in Omaha is being funded) as much as it seems like a no-brainer, that is a long stretch that probably isn’t going to lead to more development. If that is the c...

I believe so, in that second picture you can see they put up a number 6, and then there is another floor visible and the latest one under the slip form.

36 more to go!!!

Sweet, when did those go up?

Not sure we went by today on our way to the Luminarium.

If you are referring to Nebraska specifically, they never have won a NCAA tournament game.

I don’t think it’s unpopular necessarily but a very costly extension that would be nice, but even if that ever did happen, it would be at least a decade or 2 away.

A large parking garage is fine but build housing on top of it. The views of downtown from this angle are amazing.

I didn't know that they are planning to replace all the windows in the buildings. That by itself, will be a huge undertaking. I have an acquaintance that specializes in turning office buildings into residential buildings (mostly in California but also Texas) and I recall him saying that window repl...

Its crazy how with just a little moisture it greens up so quickly.

I’m glad I played basketball last night instead of watching. Sucks that they went 20-20 and then once tv showed that stat, they missed 3 in a row when it mattered. Obviously they aren’t expected to shoot 100% from the line but Kalk missed front end of one and one and Trey missed both of his when the...

Tough game for the Jays tonight. Battled back from 13 down and actually lead but only to miss 3 consecutive FTs and upset the game away.

At least I can live a normal life the rest of the weekend and not stress about a game.

skinzfan23

Hard to tell in the 2nd to last picture but have they installed the glass on the canopy or is that just the beams in place?
