Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4574871, member: 1414"] You guys have been pretty successful in baseball too. Big East baseball is pretty much UConn and Creighton. [USER=5037]@Rocktheworld[/USER] for better or worse, people in that area, whether Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa or Missouri are pretty big college basketball fans. They just are. There's a reason the Big 12 is successful at the sport. So I think BlueJay is saying that they've got a good sized city that has essentially adopted Creighton as its basketball team. Had NU ever managed to succeed at hoops, it probably wouldn't be that way. KC is split between KU, Missouri and somewhat K-State and Iowa or Iowa State (all five of which are in the tournament for example). But Omaha just has Creighton. [/QUOTE]
