the boneyard is always a fun read after we beat them. The typical mix of blueblood entitlement, panic mode, and genuine respect for CU and Mac.

Nice win, we are much better then the pundits claim we are. We can beat anybody as long as Kalk continues to play like he has over the last two weeks. Go Jays.

I assume they are saying that they should have won but for the refs. And, when McNeely comes back, they will slaughter us?

That charge taken by Miller with 1:50 to go, was absolutely huge.

A couple posters say they need to get out of the Big East conference due to the refs being out to get them and they are not getting the proper respect they deserve. They did get screwed on the 3 pointer at the end but I’m fairly sure that’s not due to an officiating conspiracy against them.

Am I the only one who could clearly see Ash’s left hand grab Diara’s right arm before any kind of shooting motion started? It looked clear to me. I like Benetti but I thought he was just trying to create unnecessary drama on that call. I thought if they had reviewed it the call would have stood.
At Creighton Bob Gibson majored in sociology and starred in Basketball and Baseball. In 1957 Gibson received a $3,000 sign-on bonus with St. Louis Cardinals, but delayed his HOF Cards career a year to play pro B-ball with the Harlem Globetrotters.

Here's my gamer.

Focused on Creighton closing it out on the road, Jamiya Neal and both the loud and quiet contributions from the supporting cast.

Kinda depends on what they saw and actually called I think. It looks like he might have grabbed him a bit like you said, but it certainly wasn't blatant (and was far less than what UConn was doing to ball-handlers all game). The second contact was definitely a shooting foul though because Ashworth did reach with the right hand after Diarra or whoever it was jumped into him.

Game is on replaying on FS1. The missed foul on Jamiya by Diarra that led to a 3 for them was so bad. It looked like Diarra fouled him on purpose to prevent a layup and they just no called it. Diarra being called for 1 foul all game was crazy.
