We can win this game - if not why compete at all. It's telling how many leads we have had and could not build on them and let them slip especially towards the end of games. Hopefully Mr. Akok can put up some much needed points along with his defense.

Looks like a 13 or 13.5 line (couple different numbers out there), with an o/u of 148.5.

Hopefully Mr. Akok can put up some much needed points along with his defense. We definitely need Akok to score in this game against Creighton. Let’s go Hoyas! |

"Sure, the bar isn’t super high for Patrick Ewing’s group. But looking past Georgetown isn’t in Creighton’s best interest. Understanding just how much weight each game carries — yes, even the Hoyas — is in its best interest. Ewing still suits up a couple of notable scorers in Primo Spears and Brandon Murray, with each averaging 17.1 and 14.6 points, respectively. While capable of shooting the momentum out of his group at times, Spears remains one of the premier difficult shotmakers in the league. “Primo Spears is one of the best midrange players in our conference, maybe in the country,” McDermott said. Behind forward Akok Akok, the Hoyas don’t lack size or aggression while defending around the rim. The UConn transfer is averaging 2.1 blocks. 6-foot-11 Qudus Wahab has provided the Hoyas with an inside presence, too. Georgetown’s problems have been less predicated on talent and more around scheme, possession management and maintaining their peak level of basketball through the course of a game. All fingers have pointed to Ewing, and justifiably so." omaha.com/sports/college/creighton/amid-a-four-game-winning-streak-creighton-looking-the-part-of-its-preseason-expectations/article_ad626344-a16c-11ed-96ae-b30dd21bfddc.html |

Jordan Riley’s playing time was fun while it lasted. |

UNBELIEVABLE—HOYAS ARE USING THE BENCH. Totally believable is the selfish my turn ball by Primo and Murray who are 0/8.

Spears and Murray are shameless gunners.

Ball moving rather well at the moment, but Primo is out.

Primo out and Heath in the defense isn't needing to help out. Still helping Wahab, but most players staying on their man and not letting good shot go up. Really good to see. The Hoya defense is looking decent.

Actually impressed by the energy and effort of Wahab. Looking good against the Creighton bigs.

There is no forced shot our guards wont take. Even Riley forcing shots in our all dribble no pass offense, but at least he hustles back on defense. Believe that Primo and Murray have missed at least 12 shots and i stopped counting.

Really disgusted with how selfish Primo and Murray are. Primo should sit the rest of the game. No chance that would ever happen of course.
