Way to go Romeo...Zips made it respectable, other than a really close finish or a win, that's all we can ask for...they didn't give up. That shows we have a lot of character and short of winning, that's the most important thing for earning respect.

Not bad considering we didn't rebound, shot a low percentage, and Romeo was the only one who stepped up and played really big tonight.Good season guys!...Next year will be even better!...Fear the Roo!

OK, now its over...jacket's on, but I'm staying 'til the end for the sake of being a good fan.

At this point, I think we're just out of gas.

No excuse for a shot clock violoation...especially when you're down 9 with nothing to lose.

Travis is having a HUGE game!...Go Romeo!

I know we can make this close!...Imagine what it would be if we could rebound OR make a decent shot percentage.

Here we go...4 minutes is a long time!

Let's make a run and maintain our dignity regardless of outcome!

I just wish I would see the team work some more offense when we get down as opposed to panicking and hoisting up a ton of 3's.But yes, great season...we're moving in the right direction!Looking forward to soccer and football now...it's going to be a long 5 months!

Looks like Travis is about the only one that has brought his A game tonight. I just want to see it be respectable at the end...let's close it to within 10.

Tonight, the difference is rebounding and 3 pt shooting %. We could really use Jeremiah Wood tonight...Hopefully, that's a big way in which the team will improve next year.

For those of you wanting a real-time box score...http://www.gocreighton.com/sport_stats/live/mbb/xlive.htmLet's go Zips!

I've been saying all game that if we heat up, its going to be a close finish!

If the Zips can heat up shooting, they'll make it close.

We were down against Can't and Temple at halftime and didn't play a good first half...if we come out of half much the same as the first, we're going to have problems...if not, it could be very competitive down the stretch. Whatever the outcome, I want it to be respectable.

35-24 Creighton with 2:42 left according to ESPN.com

Keep in mind how the Temple game started for us!

I'm well aware of the bureacracy associated with NEOUCOM. Its just a waste to have a medical school away from the clinical and research centers that are found in the City of Akron. Thus, clinical affiliations are weaker than they should be and the school is an underachiever in research. As it is, NEOUCOM is a waste of tax dollars.

The "West" Campus should also be the site of the medical school! NEOUCOM is a joke where it is now!...But yes, I like the idea of combining the two schools.

I'm a graduate of UA and a current PhD student at Pitt. Although I love Pitt as a school, I'll be rooting for Can't because of how their winning could help the MAC and in turn, UA. I think Can't will win as Pitt is notorious for being upset in the NCAA Tournament. Can't's depth and great defense will give Pitt problems.

Just thought I'd ask the nation which MAC teams they think are: 1) deserving of an NIT bid and 2) which teams will actually get NIT bids.My response: 1) UA, Miami, and Toledo are worthy of bids in that order...UA deserves a first-round home game and 2) only UA will get a bid and we will be on the road. Such a stigma is an unfortunate reality of being a member of a mid-major conference.

Believe it or not, I agree with AntonioGates and think that we definitely deserve to host a game this year for the NIT!...seeing as we were undefeated at home this season, I like our chances in the first round if we get a home game.

Antonio,Well done...with the rivalry behind us for at least another 8 months, we must back each other up for the rest of the season. I think both schools can make a big impact in their respective post-season tournament. Best of luck to UA and Can't State!

My comments with regard to the NIT/NCAA Tournament were retrospective in nature. Of course, we'd rather have a MAC Championship and an NCAA Tournament berth; however, a 21 win season and a potential NIT bid makes this season one of the most succesful in school history for a team that didn't have a go to player or superstar. Next season will be even better.As much as I hate to say it, I'll hand it to Can't...they deserved to be champions this year. Also, Toledo was hot at the right time and earned their second place finish.
