Poll: How do we do against Creighton Saturday?

[KingAG]

If we won that game by 2 points there would be a postgame thread with 4 pages already talking about how awful this team is.

I tried to start one. It got deleted.

Everyone knows the transitive property in sports is undefeated. Frankly, I would rather play Creighton with them coming off a close win than a bad loss.

I'm not among those people lined up on the cliff because Hurley's got a month to get this looking right but this feels like the game where they get jumped from the opening tip and spend the rest of the night chasing the game. God knows Creighton will be up for it and those farmers and insurance agents will be loud.

Or maybe they surprise me and put together a solid effort from wire to wire. But I've been feeling for a couple weeks that they were going to get smacked in the mouth in Omaha so I'll go with that.

Great use of the reverse jinx!

Just moved up 4 spots in KenPom.

One game can really make that much of a difference?

Gotta admit, pretty sure I voted no. Not a downer, just felt like we were due for an L. At least I wasn’t the only one

No over 1/4 of the votes were "no" votes. Good on you for having the gall to admit it on here haha

And 14 spots in offensive efficiency for those who have been having a mini heart attack about that

14 spots from 1 game? That's kind of crazy when a team has played 21 games.

This was the type of performance we've all been waiting for, stepped on an inferior opponent and created some separation

We owned the glass - have been getting beat by inferior teams there. Our guards rebounded really well today. And we obviously shot lights out today. That was really nice to see.

That is quite the one game KP hop.

Where's Ruff? If that was Michigan or Arizona he'd be posting like...well normal for him.

It’s because spots 20-45 are separated by only a couple Adj Pts/100 possessions. One good game can bump you 0.5pts or so

From a #2 team to a....#2 team

85 points on 57 possessions on the road is <fire fire fire emoji>
