For some reason they aren't guarding Remy either? lol that makes no sense

Keep running Kansas. Keep running.

They weren’t guarding Harris either.

When the 3’s stop falling for Creighton, it gets ugly

Let's not look back now. :)

Very very early, but we looked at the start like we always look in Round of 32 games. Timid, shy, scared to mess up.

Everyone except for Remy. He's instant attitude adjustment. He may be the best curveball off the bench in the tournament.

I noted that. But not guarding Harris makes sense against KU, not guarding Remy doesn't. He will make them pay and has.

Just keep running. They don’t want to push the game.

On the Creighton sideline during timeout:

“The point guard can’t shoot. Don’t guard him.”

“Which point guard?”

“I don’t remember, just don’t guard any of them”

Yeah Harris only took and hit that one 3.

LMAO. What a reerun

Creighton was the first to double digits.

You guys suck.

We can keep on sucking expanding the lead, i'm good with it. ;)

Creighton starting to bail after the shot. Scared of the run outs.

Abaji doesn't have it today

Ochai is tight again as usual. Has there ever been a big game where he wasn't?

Ochai needs a dunk to get going.

Ochai will get rolling. Just needs to see the ball go in.

We've been slow starters in a lot of games this season.

Remy needs to start

Calling little ticky tack fouls on us, meh

That's a pretty soft call. I would hope for the same at the other end?

And nope, Jalen got hit on that one and got no call

lol they showed this when they went to commercial

A. Do they think that is Remy


B. WTF is that photoshop

Bill can’t be happy with the amount of uncontested 3s being made.

Maybe they should be guarding Creighton's best player behind the arc

horrible passing

Get Yesefu out of the game, 2 awful turnovers in a row including one that he should have shot.

Live by the 3 die by the 3 bitches.

Perimeter D?

Race you to triple digits.

I’ve decided that Yesufu isn’t allowed to throw any more lobs

7/11 from three. LMAO

7-11 from 3.

Is that what those were? one was so bad looked like he just threw it to the other team.

McDermott is going with his small lineup whenever McCormack is in the game and it's working very effectively.

Unless they go cold from the arc. This is going to be a long game.

It's frustrating. He needs to drive to the basket.

They’re 7-11 from 3. I doubt that’s sustainable.

Helps to get a hand in their face

Jay's making a game of it

8-12

8 for 12 :(

Creighton has been a turnover machine most of the year.
Play better hands on D

8-13

I mean, they're also 8 from 12 from 3 and only up 1.

Yes

What was that foul on Lightfoot? There was like no contact.

Problem with that is that he's a terrible ball handler and a bad finisher. Can't really create his own shot at all.

Looked like a pushoff to be honest, cleared with his left arm

I need more commercials like I need more Creighton 3s.

My concern in that respect is they are giving up a ton of open shots because of Creighton's matchup advantages in using the small lineup. Self can adjust to that but hasn't yet.

Ya their misses have had a hand in the face, might keep working.

I hate State Farm
I'm an All-State alpha male

Martin IS our offense

First sign of an adjustment from Self in bringing KJ in to guard Kaluma. Ochai bails them out with a dumb foul though.

Hope those ticky tack fouls on us even out

And that's why I don't like Ochai driving ever unless he's got a clean lane. He has no idea what to do with it and just jumps in the air throwing the ball away.

8-14

Braun then dribbles off his leg

JCL with the dumbest foul imaginable. How does a 7 year college player do that?

Coleman Lands barely touched him but why are you touching him at all there?

We just don’t have the size to match up inside.

Abaji needs to step up in the 2nd, far from playing like an AA.

Braun had a bit more time there to get a better shot... oh well.

Annoying half, but we’ll be fine

Well if we can keep the from 8-14 again.

That would be cool.

Might help if someone other than Remy steps up.

Pretty dreadful half defensively. They did basically everything wrong on that end and Self didn't start adjusting to Creighton's small lineup until late in the first half. A lot of room for improvement there.

Offense wasn't much better except for Remy bailing them out. Would be nice if Ochai showed up, but he has a tendency to come up small in big games so I'm not expecting much.

24 of their 38 are from 3.

Those who talk about Ochai as a national POY candidate honestly are just looking at the scoring totals and don't watch him play IMO. Good shooter, but he's really not that impactful in the overall sense.

That half went about as good as I could have hoped

A teams that averages 6 3s a game and the worse in the big east.

Yet we let them go for 8-15. Sigh.

Why?

They made 5 threes the past two games combined. Why does this always happen against us. Also, our stars can't make shit. Luckily Remy is holding us together

Some of it is just lazy defense, but most of it is because they are playing a completely different lineup and style than usual without their star center (5 guards) and KU hasn't adjusted appropriately. Small opposing lineups have always been this particular team's issue given McCormack's central role.

That's a strange stat. They've not been good behind the arc at all this year.
Not sure what Self is trying to do?
Feed your big men inside the paint and end any chance Creighton has

It’s ****ing maddening.

Everyone bitches when I point it out. But they make 6 a game on average.

JFC. Perimeter D.

Well, the game changes a bit when you can't just throw it inside to your 7' dude.

Same shit different tourney.

Wilson has done some things. We've gotten nothing from our bigs. Well, I guess Dave did make some FTs. But he should be dominating on offense.
