Creighton has our number

[8893]

Better team won.

 

[UCDaveD]

We handed them 2 of the 3 wins.

 

[Goatmeat]

we need to stop fearing teams like creighton. We lost our mojo in the aac. It’s time to start crushing teams and imposing our will upon others like we used to do prior to the aac. Ten years ago we would’ve laughed at creighton.

 

[8893]

We handed them 2 of the 3 wins.

You are what your record is. We are 0-3 versus them. And we had a full-strength Bouknight for two out of three. This is not a fluke. They are better than us.

 

[Ts5034]

It feels like Creighton this year is what Louisville was for us in 2014.

 

[Kitaman]

We handed them 2 of the 3 wins.

Or they snatched 2 of the 3 wins.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Pisses me off that our fans we’re chalking up the BE title and a 4 seed in the tourny. We haven’t proven a thing, haven’t beaten a tournament team since I think USC? What we have proven is we don’t win close games, and that’s an enormous problem.

Gosh I hate this Creighton team. So much so that I rewinded and slow motioned zegaroski at the end at least 10 times and I am pretty sure he said f-u uconn

Bouk has to stop whining. Just play ball.

The question of Cole v Gaffney has been answered. The answer is Cole.

Cannot complain about the lost opportunities in this game. We had a few good shots at the end and just could not stick them.

I am rooting hard for Gtown tomorrow.

Give me Zegarowski on my team any day.

 

[uconntoatl]

Bad game for everyone except Sanogo. Expected more from Martin

 

[Bongo Fury]

Kinda like 2014 UConn couldn’t beat Louisville

Are you saying there was trash talk in a basketball game? Are familiar with the sport of basketball?

 

[kobebeanbryant]

creighton is a red herring. the truth is that we have struggled against good teams.

our only marquee win is usc, and that was so early in the season i’m not sure how strong of a performance indicator it really is for us.

 

[upstater]

Or they snatched 2 of the 3 wins.

Eh... we lost. But when you're at the free throw line and miss two in the final seconds, it's on you. Not the other team's horcrux (did I use that word right?).

 

[Tenspro2002]

It feels like Creighton this year is what Louisville was for us in 2014.

Eh, not quite. Louisville dominated us in 2014. I think we lost by 10-15 at home after KO got (understandably) tossed. We lost by 30 at their place. And then we at least showed up, but still weren't really competitive in another 10-15 point loss in the AACT.

Creighton we lost in OT, lost by single digits without our best player, and then lost by 3.

 

[HuskyCLT]

Creighton has a lot of heady players and they’re experienced. They make us pay for doubling on the perimeter with quick passes and multiple shooters, and they were able to disrupt our sets on offense too. Credit to them for being a tough team. I think we have more talent, but they’re savvy and less likely to beat themselves as we are.

 

[AuRevoirAAC]

Zegarowski is a hell of a player. He was impressive tonight

I am drunk so I will assume you mean this in the best of spirits. It is good to dislike your conference partners for a reason other than being embarrassed to be associated with them. I am not ashamed to hate Creighton. Yes, I am aware of the role that trash talk plays in basketball.

I know, I was thinking that as well, but It just seems like Creighton is a little too tough for us, or just a bad matchup for us at this point. I feel like we would not beat them even if we played them again in a week or two.

 

[ASweet3781]

We will find out next week how good Creighton really is. I'm skeptical.

 

[jibsey]

Their guards played better and stronger down the stretch. Amazed the game was as close based on our poor shooting and offense.

The gap between Cole and Gaffney is gargantuan. One player is very good and the other is not good.

took the words off my fingers. UConn just couldn't beat Louisville that year. UConn should've won today and in Gampel. But hats off to Creighton pulling off the victory.

Whaley was good

Other than those two, bad performances from everyone.

Jefferson dominated Whaley on the boards, that should not happen. Guy is 6’5
