Had zero confidence against St. John's and we blew them out. Creighton throws up points and struggles on the defensive end... we'll see.
Dog 8.... think we have won 3 straight in Omaha

Ithe combination of it being New Years Eve and Dollar Beer Day at Creightons Arena should help to ensure a lively atmosphere!

DEX should take advantage of that promotion. Maybe he is going on his new Tucson jet to make the tip off

Hearing that Dex was spotted in town this New Years Eve morning... surfing off Narragansett Pier, despite the 10 degree temperatures. Questionable that the Tuscan jet would get him there in time. Fortunately, he has alternative methods of faster transportation when his busy, NYE itinerary requires such.

Young has an awful basketball IQ. So frustrating to watch him.

Young has an awful basketball IQ. So frustrating to watch him. His biggest play this year will be spraining KC's ankle again.
