STATS:

- Christopherson is 8-of-8 from the floor with 19 points. Can I get a "holy crap" out of that one?

- Diante has 10 points with 7 assists.

- ISU went on a 23-1 run in the first half. Drake went 10 and a half minutes without a field goal.

Sounds like a team we had last year. I am so glad things have changed.

I wish! But sadly, the crowd is poor. I think people have forgotten how to cheer and stay loud all game.

It's ok though. I'm confident it will start to come back and the culture of the mid-to late 90s will return.

Still, it's fun watching this team play and I wish I lived closer to be there to support them. Well done!

Imagine this team with Brackins and Wes Johnson.. lol would be great to watch.

Wes would have used up his eligibility by this year, had he stayed.

This is how it's going to be some nights when the shots are falling. We just need to remember this when we hit a game where we can't buy a basket with Boone Pickens money. What I love is the difference in confidence and looseness that the players have. It's a huge difference between the tentative, cautious play from the recent past.

Cheers

I watched about 2 minutes of MSU last night and they were trying to dunk everything - everything. I think we need to start trying more of that.

not to rain on any parades, but we won our first 5 games by at least 20 last year, with one by 40+ and another by 30+ then a 10 point win over st louis. and then the **** storm came and we stunk it up again. long way to go and i would think the staff would agree

But the three point shot isn't really falling for anyone but Scotty. I was worried after the first two games when we shot so well from 3. Tonight it's been all drives and layups. Very impressed with this game tonight.

I now no longer hate Wesley Johnson. He did what was best for him, and that was to get away from McD. Diante should have almost done that.

I now feel real bad for all Creighton players.
