Nova out toughed us and we're in trouble to make the tourney... (Even NIT at this point.)

Butler is officially on the wrong side of the bubble. The Cannibalism continues..

Just saw that it's 19 straight road losses for UConn vs ranked teams. Last time they won one of those was in 2014!

Tristán Newton is a stone cold killer but even he couldn’t overcome CU’s 14 3s.

Jays played an almost perfect game.

Post game they said the game plan was to take away Karaban and Spencer and let Newton get his as a volume shooter. Worked perfectly.

Fun night.

Great game Jays. UConn started well but then it was all CU dominance after the middle of the first half.

Always gotta give it to the Blue Jay faithful for creating one of the most exciting atmospheres in College ball.

Unpopular Opinion: UCONN got behind last night (and really before they got behind) and they quit playing basketball. They started playing "draw a foul". Go back and watch all the flops, bumps, stopping in front of a player, etc. And every whistle that went against them they turned to the ref and complained. The complaining they learned from Hurley, and they are not the only team/player to try to draw a foul, they just did it A LOT, and the run at the 7 minute mark was a direct result.

You got a great team with a bunch of great players. Just play the game and you won't get worked like you did last night.

Great game to watch on TV with the energy coming through the screen. UConn is very good, but not unbeatable. I bet there are coaches around the country who will watch the video of how Creighton defended UConn and try to utilize some of the same things.
