Yeah, they gave up a 16-0 to start the 2nd half. This teams inexperience shows up all the time. They better get this corrected for next year. There have been so many games that they have led the majority of the game only to have mental lapses and stupid mistakes or TOs give the game away. That is the story of the season. The potential is there, they just need to grow up and put it all together.

Yet, they’re up on TCU 33-30 at the half. CU needs to clean this up in the 2nd half. If they do, I get the sense they’ll coast to a win...

Looks like they regressed further in the second half. Another second half where they fail to show up, and it happened right after half time instead of with 5 minutes to go.
It’s been a disaster. Somehow, TCU is shooting 73% in the 2nd half. Martin hurts his ankle and is now riding the bench. Still 10 or so minutes to go, but it looks like season over for the Jays at this point.. I’m hoping for the miracle turnaround. Doubt it’ll happen though..

Sickening 2nd half by the Jays...

Might take more than a miracle at this point. They're in fouling meltdown mode. I've seen enough of these types of halves the past 5 years, and it's frustrating.

Glad they got to 20 wins, but this season is over unless they can play amazing "team" ball in the last 8 min.

It’s very frustrating indeed..

I agree with skinz, happy for a 20 win season.. BUT..

This 2nd half performance was mind boggling BAD. Easily their worst of the season. The Jays simply mailed it in. Horrible defense and, as of 2 minutes left, shooting 7-31 in the 2nd half. Very disgusting, inexcusable and frustrating.. Time to close the book on the season...

Not a great season, but not a bad one either. The Jays finished in the top 1/2 of the Big East with a very young lineup. Can't wait to see what next year holds if everyone comes back.

Any Creighton fan that watched TCU beat up Nebraska Sunday night should of been able to see that TCU was on another level then Nebraska and Creighton. TCU was only favored over Creighton by 3 1/2 points and I thought it should of been more like 10 points. It turns out I saw what I thought I saw. TCU is not a bad team. Creighton did better this year then they should have considering the limited talent they had.

Mintz announced he will enter the draft as well. No mention of hiring agents, but Martin's comment reads like he is gone if he gets drafted or not. Mintz I assume wont hire and agent to stay eligible.

Prosecutors played a video in court yesterday showing Preston Murphy accepting $6000 while wearing a Creighton shirt. Not sure why he is still employed by Creighton at this point.
