Lots of really good analysis here by many of you, so I'll be brief:

Creighton is a very good team, as noted here an Elite Eight team a year ago, and I'd bet the Bue Jays must be feeling they really let it get away tonight.

Some BYers have said the Blue Jays shot lights out, yet three of Creighton's key players, Jensen, Ronsiek and Maly, shot a horrible 9 of 36 from the floor.

The Huskies were clutch and fortunate, and I'm smiling now because of what Caroline Ducharme proved once again: on a crazily talented roster, she brings something to the offense that no one else (except Paige) can bring.

I'd like to add what very few of you have noted: while Dorka missed a bunch of shots around or near the hoop, she otherwise played well. In a 62-60 game, to have 10 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, a block and a clutch steal counted for a lot.

Regarding Villanova on Saturday, a number of you have opined the Wildcats might be favored... however, the Huskies are right now 9 1/2-point favorites. Sounds a bit strong for me, but UConn still has everyone's respect.
