Weak weak field this year. Hard saying what will happen. I think the Valley gets 3 bids.

I like the Jays. Big.

Creighton ain't Drake.

BJs can score in the paint and beyond the arc, can't forsee Birds slowing down this motivated CU team.

Great game plan and win IlSt. You defended the perimeter very well. I would have felt bad for Wilkins if CU would have forced OT on a good sportsmanship play. I'm starting to think that Creighton should rethink this conference move. I mean if they can't hold serve up two games in the Missouri Valley how are they going to compete against the likes of Georgetown and Villanova in the new C7 league. Why didn't back-up pg Yates play tonight? This seemed like the type of game where he could have had an impact.

I think we got some mojo back. 0-6 to start the season....never saw that coming.

I hope Gibbs doesn't come back next year. That guy kills us. Absolutely kills us.

Three way tie for 1st after 13 games of Valley play??? Wow! The Valley will be lucky to get 2 teams into the Big Dance at this rate. Top to bottom this conference is showing its parity more and more as the season progresses. Unreal!

I will gladly eat my crow. ISU is a hellva team! Johnny HIll is the toughest player in the league and can certainly lead this team to win it all in St. Lou.

Good guys aren't looking too good lately.

That's two 2-game losing streaks for the good guys.
