Creighton @ St John’s
- Thread starter P615007
- Start date
Why do you want St. John's to win? That would just put them back on the bubble... Media loves Pitino drama... we need less bubble teams, not more.
Creighton coming home after loss. Might make Wednesday tougher. Would rather have Creighton win. It will take another St. John’s second half collapse.
I don't want Creighton using our Wednesday night game as a must win game to maintain it's ncaa seating. And I don't want St. John's on the bubble again. Go Creighton!!!!
St. John's 80-66 Creighton (Feb 25, 2024) Box Score - ESPN
Box score for the St. John's Red Storm vs. Creighton Bluejays NCAAM game from February 25, 2024 on ESPN. Includes all points, rebounds and steals stats.
Let's see if the Storm chokes away another 2nd half lead.
Creighton has (Seton Hall, Marquette, @Villanova) after today. So honestly, SHU would probably have to beat Creighton to get 3rd place. If not, Creighton would hold the tiebreaker. Should SHU beat Creighton I would think that clinches a birth.
If SJU holds on here, would that help our metric for beating them twice?

Ashworth and scheirman combined 1-11

I hate Creighton but I’d rather have them play disinterested against us so that we get the win instead of playing pissed off because they lost to lowly St. John’s.
Not sure they will be disinterested against The Hall either way. 18,000 fans really helps their cause. What may help is them having only one decent practice on Tuesday. They are using a lot of energy today. I'm hoping to obviously win or play them punch for punch. Our guys are trending to play bad second halves on the road.
What's with Pitino's' white suit?He looks like an evil character in a James Bond movie!
Who is this Red Storm team?? 70-56
Pitino throws his team under the bus and this is how they respond. Impressive.

Creighton losing today doesn't bode well for us on Wednesday.McDermott,the team and the fans will be up for that game.
Well we have gotten our asses kicked out there many times. Ho hum.
Go out there and beat them. If we do, we punch a NCAA ticket and likely seal up third place at worst with an outside shot at second. You have to want these opportunities. This is a golden one.
St. John’s played well. Alexander was great. Others on Creighton did not bring it. Bet they will on Wednesday. Slick Rick wore his lucky white suit and got the win.

Does that mean Shaheen should dress that way on Wednesday?
OK. I believe the most probable scenario is The Hall playing in the 4/5 2:30 game at MSG. Personally, I'd rather play Providence in that game. With Khadary I would feel confident. Not sure we would want to play SJU again, this time at MSG. We probably now want SJU to lose their next game at Butler. Love to take care of business and get out of the Dayton Round.
I thought Pitino left the Col. Sanders getup in Louisville?
I hope our coaching staff takes notes on how the johnnies shut down Creighton's potent offense, particularly their perimeter shooters. It wasn't just an off day for the jays, St John's actually played very good defense.
I think Rick wore that suit to his First Communion!
1. SJU has to remain in the NET 75, or our win at SJU drops to a Quad 2.
2. SJU can't beat us in the Big East Standings no matter what happens.
3. The Creighton loss puts us alone in 3rd place, a half game behind Marquette for second.
4. SJU only has two Quad 1 wins, regardless of their NET they wouldn't be chosen over us as we've beaten them twice.
5. The Elite 8 run by a 16 seed is still fresh in everyone's memories, Sha is as big a draw as Pitino.
6. If teams in the Dance were decided purely on NET rankings there wouldn't be a selection committee.
We will be a lock if we can win 2 games, one must be DePaul.
And he clipped everyone else’s gifts while they weren’t looking.
Nobody expects us to beat Creighton on Wednesday. With Creighton having very little rest and prep time, I don't think their loss today puts us at a disadvantage on Wednesday. We need our best defense to show up and a decent perimeter game. Dawes will be the key on Wednesday - NO PRESSURE!
Didn't see this game, how well teams defend the three impact how well the other teams shoot.
Does The Hall want an angry and focused team this Wed?
This isn’t a good result IMO

Was Creighton not going to play hard Wed night if they won? We need to go in there with a mentally though attitude and play defense on the 3.
