And that game was hard to watch. Both teams were pathetic. I can't believe CU lost to Georgetown the way they played here, and they knew they also needed this game to even get a sniff of the bubble.

Oh well, CU just got a present. A second round bye!

Yeah besides having to play 2 games in less than 24 hrs for DePaul, they were also swept this season by the Jays. Both games so far looked like the Jays handled them pretty easily.

And down goes Nova!

That was a big upset...so far 2 upsets out of 3 games. If the Jays continue to work on what they do, they will be fine tonight vs DePaul.

If anything, this really just shows what kind of a powerhouse this conference is.

skinzfan23 · Post by **skinzfan23** » Thu Mar 13, 2014 6:40 pm

McDermott is feeling it, he has 22 of Creighton's first 35 points. Jays up 35-23.

skinzfan23 · Post by **skinzfan23** » Thu Mar 13, 2014 6:54 pm

update: he has his career high for 3's made in a game (7) and its only halftime. He has 27 points and the Jays are up 49-29 at half.

This is the stuff of legend. Wow that was an incredible half of basketball!

Post by **Coyote** » Thu Mar 13, 2014 7:04 pm

What a first half by Dougie! And Magnigat! Great shot if him responding to the announcers.

skinzfan23 · Post by **skinzfan23** » Thu Mar 13, 2014 8:01 pm

Jays win 84-62. Now 25-6. McDermott finished with 35. Chatman had a great game as well (11pts and 9 assts)

Post by **Coyote** » Thu Mar 13, 2014 8:16 pm

They allowed DePaul to get a run there, when they looked top content but kept the double digit lead...

What a sweet pass...lol.

McDermott became just the 6th player in NCAA history to score 800 points in 3 consecutive seasons.

The list of the players is impressive:
Scored 800 Points in 3 Consecutive Seasons - Division I History
2011-14 Doug McDermott Creighton
1982-85 Wayman Tisdale Oklahoma
1976-79 Larry Bird Indiana St
1975-78 Freeman Williams Portland St
1967-70 Pete Maravich LSU
1957-60 Oscar Robertson Cincinnati

Curious -- only watch game cast online as I don't have cable --- what happened to Gibbs tonight? Based on the box score it looked like he was a non factor -- no points 2 rebounds, 1 assist.

Not quite sure what his deal was. He only played 18 min. Wonder if he was sick.

Marquette 65 , Xavier 68

I've never, in my lifetime, seen a college basketball player as dominant and as efficient as McDermott. I think a lot of us take it for granted, but what he's doing out there, will never, ever happen again for someone in a Creighton uniform. It's too bad it's quickly coming to an end, but it was fun to watch.

Post by **Coyote** » Fri Mar 14, 2014 9:22 pm

6. Doug McDermott. 3,059

skinzfan23 · Post by **skinzfan23** » Fri Mar 14, 2014 9:57 pm

He needs 2 more to move into 5th place. Great first half by the Jays. Wish it would have ended a little better, but hard to argue with a 12 pt halftime lead. I couldn't believe they stopped play when Xavier's coach got a technical. Creighton was right in the middle of an offensive set and they stopped play. That shouldn't have happened. The technical should have stopped play after the shot.

Just called Cox and they aren't taking any phone calls due to high demand....I guess everyone else is calling to complain.

Very very outside chance at getting #4, but I think he'll stay at #5

Looks great, but the only thing I noticed is Doug has played 142 games.

The crazy thing about McDermott is that he can score 30 points and it seems ho-hum. When a guy can score that many points in a college game and it doesn't seem like a big deal you know you're seeing something special.

Plus 25 vs. PU would be 20 less than he got a week ago. Also I have a feeling CU is going to absolutely shred their 2nd round matchup. No one can game plan for CU in a day and a half if they have never seen them before. It could get ugly.

I'm betting the usual win one and done typical Creighton showing in the tournament. I'll happily stand corrected if they go farther, but I doubt they do. Add on to that he's got only 9 so far tonight.
