This is a tough place to win and Creighton will be looking for payback and to help their Big Dance credentials. It will also be a big test for our freshmen to be on the road in a conference challenge. So what do we want? I, for one, want more of the same, just without the sleepwalking in the beginning of the game. No easy 3s for Creighton the entire game, lots of running, great help defense, and Paige to don her Paige cape from the start, without the necessity of a Geno lecture.
A few small notes for the frosh. KK to stop the drive forces. The pull up in the women's game is a lethal shot and available to you whenever you want it with your speed off the dribble. In the men's game it almost is extinct. Ash to look for the ball more especially when you are feeling it. You proved that. Q to keep improving her defense and playing hard. The offense is there so we just need you on the court which means the defense has to be solid. Ice to play smart and within herself and to do the things that are needed now such as boxing out, rebounding, setting picks and playing defense with her body not her arms.
Actually, after the Texas game, the thought of wanting "more of the same" was masochistic at best. Now, thanks to the recreation of this team, they are both exciting and endearing at the same time. This a big game tonight in many ways so run, baby, run.
