Either way it will be lower than both after they loose to the Huskers on Thursday night! Â Â :;):
For the record NEBUGEATER does not equal BUGEATER !!!!!!!
Not that you need excuses when you win by 20, Coach McDermott mention after the game that the team was fairly shaken up by Josh Jones collapsing on the court during warm-ups and hauled off to the hospital on a stretcher 20 min before the game started. They still didn't know what happened as of the end of the game.

Coach Greg McDermott said after the game that Jones fainted during pregame warm-ups and was taken from the Devaney Center on a stretcher.
Jones was diagnosed with a bacterial infection during his senior year at Omaha Central High School and underwent surgery to replace a heart valve. He resumed playing basketball in December 2007.

Good crowd tonight, although it didn't seem like it ever got too loud. Â There should be other record crowds this season as well with the way the team is playing. Â The halftime show of Quick Change was way better than the Jay's dancers (almost anything would be better halftime entertainment).Brad wrote:Creighton started conference play with a win tonight 87-70.

McDermott had a double double with 29 pts and 10 rbs. Â Echenique also had a double double with 13 pts and 13 rbs.
Crowd was definately not real energized but when you are up double digits from the tip off basically it's tough to really keep them interested. When Evansville cut it to 7 they showed a little life, then Doug hits a 3 and the blowout is back on. Indiana State comes in Saturday afternoon pretty hot so that should be a much closer and more exciting game.skinzfan23 wrote:Good crowd tonight, although it didn't seem like it ever got too loud.

McDermott is something like 18-21 for 47 points in the second half these last two games.
First team in the nation to 17 wins this season!
CU Attendance tonight 17,391 - 4th sold out game in a row, and 13th largest crowd. It also puts CU over 200,000 for the season. No MVC has ever been over 200,000 and CU has now done it 7 times!
Josh Jones had a second Hear procedure today. Â It took 9 hours and according to the coach, "It went as well as it could have".

I am glad that I was able to move back to the area and reclaim my season tickets to get to watch all the games. Â It has very exciting so far. Â This team has done some unbelievable things already. Â GO JAYS!
On a side note...Wisconsin won at Indiana tonight. (should help the Jays out since they beat Wisconsin already this year, and now after this win Wisconsin will probably be ranked.)

He should be able to pass Buford by the end of the season pretty easily. Â Buford was the only Blue Jay I did like since Im a Heat fan in the NBA.skinzfan23 wrote:McDermott is now second in the nation after tonight...averaging 24.0 ppg. He also passed Kyle Korver tonight to move into 5th place on Creighton's all-time scoring list.

Also Boise State beat previously undefeated Wyoming away, and plays ranked #19 New Mexico at home tonight.
