BET Championship Saturday - Georgetown vs. Creighton

Go . . . not birds.

I want to say we loosened that jar for them

Hope they continue to embarrass them in the second half
 
We would have beat Creighton if they wore these uniforms last night.

Change my view

Maybe Donny should give Creighton a tongue-lashing about coming in being cocky like he did for UConn last night.
 
Last time a team seeded this low won a BE Tournament was...2011 - just saying. Team of destiny?
 
You have to like how the Gtown guards are really picking it up and looking for their offense. I really like Harris as he is going to be a great one.

Generally it's pretty easy to root for a team you crushed 2x vs. a team that beat you 3x.

Waiting on the proverbial "it's all about matchups".
 
Creighton lost it's mojo when it went to bench. Starters came back and look like a dear in headlights.

Georgetown is doing the two things that we didn't do last night: rebounding and pushing the ball up court quickly after a defensive rebound.

Also, their D has been good so when they force the missed shots they are in good position to rebound it. I don't hate Creighton and I will pull for them in the NCAA tourney, but GTown winning will get a 4th team in the dance. Also, it would be great way to honor John Thompson.
 
Remember Georgetown was on fire in the 2nd half against us even though it was a blow out, they scored 45 pts in the half. This wouldve been more of a fun game if we were playing even in defeat, the entertaining thing is Cuse wouldve had to root for us oh well.
 
F Creighton. I hope Georgetown puts them away, I'm gonna be salty about those uncalled blows to the head and neck for a while.

They put up 58 against us in that 2nd half.
 
Georgetown looks great and Creighton can’t shoot tonight. The sequence at the end of the half was laughable

They were really up for the game last night. All the pundits picked us to win the tournament. They felt disrespected. They were playing for their coach. Check out their locker room celebration last night. They were playing with emotion and intensity. 19 hour turnaround.

You can see the difference on their hedges last night vs. tonight and how they're attacking the o-boards. Plus their legs look dead on their shots today (8/30 shooting), which has given GTowni a lot of transition opportunities.

Let's not kid ourselves.

Nostalgia is real.

The Big East conference with UConn, Villanova, Georgetown and St. John's gets much better national recognition than a BE fronted by Creighton, Butler and Xavier.

Thats right further stating my case. Bottom line Gtown wasnt a true 9-12 team coming into the BET, this year records are even more mis leading then years past.

Georgetown is playing their 4th game in a row so dead legs don't ring true. They aren't really up playing for a championship? I don't buy that either.

Maybe they just aren't that good? Ewing better on quick turnaround? Georgetown outclassing them athletically (which we should have done as well).

I hope Georgetown takes the Cuse's bid.

Kentucky had Lville number that year as well.

Which is exactly why 2014 was the perfect example. There's weird triangles of matchups in college that end up like that. Team A smokes B, B smokes C, C smokes A. It never makes any sense but it happens all the time lol
