Tie game. 73 all. Official's time out to fix the clock.

73-71 with 1:16, Travis calls a timeout

Champions! ... of the Cancun Challenge. Still, I like the sound of "Champions"

Very bad. They just showed Coach Ford smiling a "How the hell can you not call those?" smile

He can't hold on to it tonight. yes, there are some fouls in there. But still gotta hang on

Rammer calls ... "Ballgame!"

While I love blowouts as much as anyone, I also like that we're getting this test -- we can come out with a W *and* with the younger guys learning how to close out a close game.

yes!

Okoro fouls out -- Deserves credit for a solid game tonight. Still a lot to improve for sure, but I am positive about his trajectory this season. Good work Francis!

70-61, 2:52 left.

Missed the first one. yes!

Absolutely!

I like our resilience the last 5 mins or so. They've thrown some punches. But we're responding. And we haven't had one of those "don't score forever" droughts.

Sigh. Yes. Arghhh!

Yes, it's a wild year. I don't have the heart to root for any team to experience COVID, and I hope they don't. But if they do ... I want us to be next man up and ready to go. A crazy year could get even crazier ...

I'm of course hoping that we get IN. But given the Georgetown win ... if we don't, I also want us to be at the top of the line for first out since this year it is possible that one of the teams can't compete if they get a COVID outbreak.

Yes, completey agree.

Yes, it was not a close game. G-Town brought the A game, Creighton didn't show up. Hopefully we can still find a way in ...

Wow ... we have a chance ... BIG day of rooting tomorrow ... Everyone please say an extra Hail Mary and Our Father tonight ...

Yes -- noticed that. Crazy

Yes!

I have never paid this much attention to early round games in other conference tournaments. Totally changes the viewing experience to have such strong rooting interests. Looks like Nevada will go down. And like this Memphis game will go down to the wire ...

They just made a nice run to take the lead. in related news, Nevada down by 7 to San Diego State 67-60 ... fingers crossed!

"This is not Billiken basketball, and it really hasn't been all night." -- Rammer at 4:22 mark.

Rammer calls "that might be the ballgame" as we go down 20, 64-44.
