Re: Creighton Basketball 2023-2024

Tim Krueger was on 1620 this morning. Apparently a group of Bracketologists got together in Omaha over the weekend.
In Omaha, they have:
Kansas VS South Dakota State
Nebraska VS Gonzaga
Still had Creighton at a 3 seed and I can't remember where they were going or if they ever said?
