Creighton exhibition discussion (see post 178 for Jake's link)

[ClonerJams]

Football bye week, so I want something to talk about. I'm excited to see how the young guards and transfers look. I'll be interested to see how Milan hunts more 3's like the coaches have been preaching to him, and how Buchanan looks at the 5.

Will we have a radio call for this game? I probably wont be paying Creighton the $8.00 to watch it.

I predict it'll go better than Iowa's scrimmage.

What did Banks do? I can’t find anything else online about him being arrested.

I hope Milan really does shoot 10 threes a game. Make it rain young man!

Who is Banks? I don't see a Banks on Creighton's roster, and there's no Banks on our roster.

edit: ah, didn't see the other post, ignore.

If you can pay $8 to watch it via Creighton why can't ISU provide a similar thing?

I'm not taking anything away from it but it would be fun to watch just for something different.

Creighton must be destroyed.

Isn’t this a home-and-home exhibition? I’d guess the home team gets those streaming rights for their respective game

Dom Nelson is one I’ll be curious to watch. Is he able to slash and attack at the same level as he was in the WAC? Is he turnover prone?

Also excited to watch Toure on the defensive end and see how big of a dog he can be this early in his career.

Interesting.

I might go ahead and pay for it.

Or I'll forget it's even on haha.

No more injuries!

Did this secret scrimmage thing go away now?

 

[Clonehomer]

Did anyone answer the question about radio coverage?

Heard OU beat Texas Tech in a secret scrimmage. Not a great look for the Big 12.

 

[ClonesFTW]

Heading down Friday for it. No expectations, mostly excited to see the freshman debuts.

Didn't OU win by 2 in OT? Not exactly a blowout

Whatever happens, I think it's a small advantage for us that we'll get to see their team without them seeing our team as it will be composed when we play later.

Secret scrimmage is different than an exhibition, I don't pay much attention to those scoreboards.

Don’t read too much into these “games”. It’s like the NFL scrimmages. Teams get a chance to play against someone else instead of themselves. Coaches use the opportunity to try different lineups. The outcome isn’t indicative of any success/failures for the season

In not even mid- October? When scrimmages aren't actual games?

I can't take anything as set in stone until like February, if that.

Obviously good early wins help but it doesn't mean much 3-4 months later for how a team plays.
