We just choked away a game we had control of all night.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

AJ needs to seriously work on shot selection

He is really frustrating to watch. We do not need a player to "create" as much as he thinks we do.

This.

I mean... 11 point lead... come on.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

We just can't seal the deal this year. Lack of leadership and a clutch player?

Been doing this all year, usually can get the lead back though.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

i wouldn't say we choked it away. we were playing above our heads when we were up double digits. we'd made something like 8 of 10 threes or something like that. it was bound to even itself out over the course of the game. we needed to get the the foul line more and we didn't. missed a few bunnies & you knew that would come back to bite you against a team that somehow always ends up shooting around 50% from the field.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

Could be lack of a clutch player. But really, I think it is because they all are waiting for the next guy to step up to be clutch. I think each can be on any given night. There just needs to be some awareness of who that should be on any given night. Tonight late in the game, I'm thinking Marc.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

we are definitely lacking that CLUTCH player though.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

Back to the drawing board - crayton craps still have to play in the McLeod. Some fans are quick to criticize players; all players have off nights. Didn't see anyone else step up. Held baby Doogie to 4 pts second half; young stepped up for them. UNI will get back on track.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

Can't believe AJ only shot about 25%, this isn't just on him though, it ALL on the team. Oh well come back to practice and lets take a W at home from MSU. This is water under the bridge now

Re: Up Next: Creighton

I do see it as a choke. They were playing to their potential. Yeah, they shot lights out for a while and built a lead, but the cold shooting was only part of what lost it tonight. Everything went wrong at the end. Missed lay ups, missed defensive assignments, a missed three as well as other things. We really let this go tonight.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

It's hard to get a good look at three when CU knows we are going to shoot a three. AJ's shot was contested, but I didn't see another open players and the clock was winding down.

I was hoping we would feed the post on the last possession so they at least were forced to pull a defender off the three point line.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

I just don't see us being able to win the conference tournament. We need wins in order to get an at-large bid, and it just isn't happening.

Re: Up Next: Creighton

We've been down double digits early and won games, and we've been up double digits early and lost. There's no consistency.
