Creighton 1/11

[pantherclaw]

24-hour rule is in effect. who do you think has this one. I think that w/o funk creighton gets spanked. Uni-68 Creighton-50

[McPANTHER]

I like your optimism but Creighton has done well without Funk and they are a dangerous team.
UNI-66
CU- 61

Predictions:
UNI: 72
Creighton: 70

Attendance: 7,502

Tough game, but I think that with the sting of last years last second shot still in the boys minds and getting to be in the home sweet dome...

UNI- 68
CU-54

I think the boys will pull away at the end again. They have really been closing out the games at in the second half.

GO PANTHERS!!!!

[merkpanthers]

Creighton is a quality team even without Funk and this is a big rivalry game. UNI is playing at home and coming off some huge wins of late. I give the Panthers the edge in this one, but it will be a close, well played game.

Panthers 65
Blue Jays 59

[BillRawz]

UNI 72 CU 60 attendance 7,800

If they game were on a saturday night attendance would approach 10,000 but i guess we couldn't get that lucky, same with the southern illinois game. But lets hope we can pull that many, on a wednesday.

Anyone know if there will be any tv in the Des Moines area, such as Mediacom? I know Fox is not airing it.

[BCPanther]

A Statement Game to let the rest of the MVC know that they are not leaving the dome with a win.

UNI 76
CU 59

Attendance- 8200 (Eternal Optimist Alert!!)

[Marc Wigim]

UNI 69
CU 62

Attendance (I've been dead on when looking at the crowd at the games themselves, but I'm almost always wrong on these): 7,290

I checked with Mediacom in Des Moines, and they will not be televising the game. Get the radio warmed up!

[Panthers to the Bone]

Students- What is the feel on campus? Are the students going to show up in big time fashion?

[BCPanther]

Average at best is the feel I get. I will say that we get between 400-600 students. A huge improvement from the past, but nowhere near the 1700 or so that are registered as "Maniacs"

Side Note- Those students that joined just so they could sit on the floor at the Iowa game should be found, tarred and feathered, and never allowed to join the Maniacs again. (Stepping off soapbox)

I'll help you, bcrawf.

Stay on that soap box and keep preaching brother !!!!

Once I saw the Drake game was on I figured we were out of luck again. We all seem to be upset that UNI isn't getting the national attention, but what do we expect when they are playing fourth fiddle to Iowa, ISU and Drake in the largest market in their own state. I think it is pathetic that Mediacom chooses to play all these Drake games when Drake has done nothing of note since the 1960s as opposed to a successful program such as UNI. This is the 3rd week that UNI has been on TV somewhere other than Des Moines and no station locally has picked up the game. I cannot even get a radio station here that gets the games clearly once the sun goes down, so I have to listen on the internet.
