  • Creighton Vs. UNI

    I think this will be a very important game to decide if the attandance for the bracket buster will be what we think it can.
    This is a very huge game to show the national media how good we are in Iowa.

    I don't think the Panthers will have a let down after the Southern Illinois game. Lets get eveyone we can to watch the Panthers on tv and maybe we can get some new panther fans, call eveyone up you know and tell them to watch.

    Prediction: UNI: 74
    Creighton: 67

        Eric Coleman goes for a double double and Chris Foster gets double digit points off the bench.

            It's going to be tough

            I'm very excited about the game and will be watching!

            It's going to be harder to get other viewers to check out UNI tonight, Iowa plays Wisconsin tonight at 7pm also. I know what game I'll be watching though.

            I'll be looking for the purple and gold in the stands.

              If some of you all go to Pepper's and they have the Iowa game on the big screen with sound...be sure to let all of us know so we can complain about it. In the past they have done this, and it ticks me off. Heck, Pepper's is the home of the Greg McDermott shows. If you plan on going to Pepper's to watch the game...get there early and request the game on the big screen.

                Hopefully, UNI can win and make The Crypt Keeper (Funk) pay for his crime in the Dome. Nobody gets away with that crap on our home floor. Who's with me?

                    Had a great time on the Bus!

                    With the exception of the outcome, I enjoyed my trip to Creighton last night. The Quest Center is an unbelievable facility. However, it's so big that even a decent crowd in terms of Valley attendence makes the place look empty. I now know why they call it the Quiet Center.

                    It was great to meet more PN posters and spending 12 hours with some of UNI's most passionate fans!! Highlight of the night had to be Born-A-Panther getting in a shouting match with Creighton's student section. That girl won't back down from nobody!!

                    Traveling by bus with a bunch of Panther faithful is the only way to go. It was alot of fun and I encourage all of you to sign up the next time the Athletic Club sponsors one.

                      Thoughts:

                      The shooting stroke is back
                      Brooks is back
                      Benny is on fire
                      Our FT shooting has to improve
                      Please put an end to the double foul...it is not possible...should have been a block (those FT's could have been the game)
                      The inconsistency of foul calls in the 1st (let em play) and 2nd half (foul, your it) was unfathomable
                      Coleman's dunk was AWESOME!!!
                      How many moving screens did the refs not call on Creighton?
                      Funk vs. Jacobson is one of the best rivalry/matchups in the midwest
                      This team is going to be great next year
                      The Panthers are going to be just fine this last month
                      The Qwiet Center lived up to it's name
                      This team can win in Carbondale, Wichita, and Normal (not to mention STL)
                      Great national exposure for the Panthers
                      The commentators needed to find more to talk about during the game than just Funk and Benny being rivals for 10 yrs.
                      The Bracket Buster game is going to be outstanding...and I think this performance will bring even more fans to the game (despite the loss)
                      When Coleman wants to dominate...he can.

                        I agree with everything both JC and Pttb said. It was fun getting into a shouting match with the Creighton students -- probably why I don't have much of a voice at all today. I do have to say that one lady after the game told me that she and her friends always cheer for UNI when they're not playing us... so not all Creighton people are as bad as the ones I encountered.

                        The amount of food brought on the bus was unbelievable - taco dip, cookies, brownies, etc... it was a great time, the best thing about it was that the guys knew we were there and I know they appreciated it -- a fan bus like this needs to happen more often for both football and basketball.

                        The guys did us proud on national television and Benny was amazing. Career high 31 points and this goes without saying, but I'd take him over the Funk any day. I'll also much rather take the McLeod Center over the "quiet" center any day. Who cares how many seats are in the place when you can hear a pin drop.

                        One more comment -- this got me even more excited for St. Louis. But first things first. Lets get the Redbirds on Saturday and then bring a packed house to the Dome for Drake and welcome ESPN to our home on the 19th. Go Panthers -- "I LOVE this team!"

                          Creighton vs. UNI

                          What a great game! I was on the fan bus. Was nice meeting some of the Panther Nation folks. I must say I was a bit apprehensive about bringing my twelve year old daughter(possible language/heckling) . Turns out, the old man did curse a couple of times, did,nt hear that from anyone else. It was a great time with all of the great Panther Fans. Too much food! peace

                            I had a great time at the game. It was fun sitting with a bunch of panther fans on the bus. The JC gang sure brought enough food for everyone, I never did say thank you so I will say it right here, THANKS FOR THE FOOD. In JC's words, we had a little "Bus-gate" (aka tailgate) before the game. The only thing that was bad about the whole night was the final score at the end, everything else was great.

                            I'm proud of this team, now lets go into Normal, Illinois and take a game from them.

                              Yeah, I'm a little full from the gratuitous amounts of food brought on the bus. But it was a great time, and I'm glad I did it. If only we could have won, it would have made the trip that much sweeter.

                              And RobFromCedarFalls is right... I'm VERY glad we don't serve beer in the Dome. Creighton fans are not only quiet about 90% of the time, they're also mean and smug... at least the ones I was next to, anyway.
