Creighton shot extremely well at 3 and UConn had no defense to stop it. It's hard to make statements about teams when the game has clear outlier factors (crazy 3 point accuracy in this case)
You see, the only way UConn was not going to repeat was if the opposing team 1)Went nuclear from 3 like Creighton did here and 2) UConn had a off-shooting night. It never happened. All season they never looked vulnerable. This is truly one of the greatest teams in college basketball history.
@@staffryte951Humbling is an odd way to put it. They are nothing but good kids that want to win. And id argue that most UConn fans (like myself) are very good people. The issue is when you purposely look for those fans, you’re gonna find them. Creighton played great, and massive take here, but winning on the road is hard !! Especially to a ranked team. People will tunnel vision this game and say UConn are frauds, etc etc, but this shouldn’t change anyone’s perspective about the team. Creighton is a really really good team, never falling below 20 in the NET rankings.
@@YeIIowNBA I like UConn as well. I feel that a lot of teams when they are on a winning streak they sometimes get a little bit full of themselves and that's when they stumble and fall.... Creighton also played a stunning game
@Thislivinghope Wait, so you mean to tell me that teams with storied history and success shouldn't get prime time viewing because they had a bad season or two? Makes sense.
@@andrewblakeslee8709If UConn is number 1 in the country then why is there conference so small? Oh, I Got it. The Big 10, 12 and SEC are grabbing all the talent that is left on the planet.
@@andrewblakeslee8709 they said we wouldn't be as good in our first season in the big 12. they said we're not deserving of the #1 ranking right now. keep up the disrespect america.....your gonna learn the hard way GO COUGS! FOR THE 713 H-TOWN TAKEOVER!!
The Jays last played in the NCAA Tournament in 2023, and have won at least one NCAA tournament game each of the last three seasons. And UConn is self explanatory? Lol
It’s called playing quality teams on the road. UConn has only played 2 road games this year against ranked opponents and they are 0-2. UConn is legit this year but just like Purdue they are not head and shoulders above everyone else
@@ZYZZinVR hey what can I say UConn looks good. I will say the difference has been clingan. Will be interesting tonight since Purdue will not have double. That’s what made KU so successful against them. Dickinson and clingan battled it out and Kansas was able to switch 1-4.
Well, I guess UConn won't become the next NBA expansion team as some would have us believe from their 'raves" a couple of days ago! Gotta love college BB! Go Boilers!
Every team has a weakness, it’s about fixing it, which Hurley is good at. These exact words were used last season, but yet they won the championship. Losing to Creighton is the shot you think it is
I wouldn't say "exposed". Creighton could go seasons and not shoot 50% from 3pt again. They shoot 36% as a team for the season. Not much any defense can do when that happens. Just ask Kansas (vs Tech).
UConn's 3 point defense is their worst point but to be fair Creighton had an incredibly lucky 3 point shooting night, they didn't even put up 50 six games ago when they played UConn. This game was absolutely incredible from the Jays.
Creighton shot 50% from 3. Last time they met it was 23%. Big difference....a 25 pt swing. UConn was 19% from 3. Don't expect this to happen next time they meet. Tough to beat any top 20 team at home when they're shooting lights out. It was Creighton's game. 7-2 Clingan rode the bench a lot with fouls. There's nothing wrong with the Huskies defense. There's no answer for a team shooting 50% from 3.....which is the same as 75% from 2. No shame losing to #15 ranked at their home court. Huskies will bounce back. Flying out to Nebraska from Connecticut takes a toll. UConn didn't cave and still led the 1st quarter and got it down to 10-13 pts several times in the 2nd half. The next meeting should be fun. Last year UCONN was flying into late December undefeated ranking #2 after being unranked to start the season. In January to early Feb they lost 7 games and dropped down to #20 - earning only a #4 NCAA tourney seed.....then proceeded to beat up every one in their way to the title game. It's a little early to count them out.
I don't understand why you would storm the court as a post season team. Storming court is for Davids beating Goliaths. Creighton basically admits they did something they shouldn't have been able to do.
No, I think the effort was there all game although getting the lights shot out against you while your shots aren't falling in such a loud and hostile environment will do something to you. But, even though Creighton played one of their all-time best games and mounted a 23 point lead 2nd half lead, the Huskies were STILL able to get it down to 10 with about 4 minutes to go. Says a lot about their toughness. So, I don't think the Huskies gave up.
They managed to survive last season against everyone in their path when it counted most...and have done it more than anyone the past 25 seasons. Who else can you say that about,? NO one ..that's who.
@@rovingwarrior3710 more than ANYONE in the past 25 seasons is an extremely bold statement. I can name you a few past teams that would destroy this uconn team and last year’s as well
@@PRballer25 Your power to speculate isn't any better than anyone elses or are you a billionaire from betting on the outcome of sporting events. To spell it out for you in the simplest language I was referrin to UConn winning the most recent NCAA championship and winning more NCAA championships than any other team the past 25 seasons. Now prove me wrong.
@@PRballer25 As a matter of fact the Big East teams have won just as many NCAA championships the past 25 years as the ACC, being they both have won 8. And if you count the one UConn won when they were out of the Big East for a few years, the conerence would have 9 championships the past 25 years. So the ACC ain't no better, so stop it with that noise.
What does this outcome say about both teams?
Creighton shot extremely well at 3 and UConn had no defense to stop it.

@@garretthahn8967we shot 50% which we usually do every now and then. lol watch our games 😂
says both teams are real good and home court seems to dictate( BET is in UConn 2nd home MSG!
kentucky fan here, this game proves again that there isnt a true #1 this year and anyone can win any given night
Nothing

I was at this game and am at nearly every Creighton home game for the last 17 years. The CHI center has NEVER been this loud before.
I’ve been a Creighton fan since I moved to Nebraska in 2019 and I have to say the same thing. This was the best game I’ve ever been too.
UConn fan here, hats off to Creighton, shot the lights out of that building. Big time win
Creighton really rocked the house...great game
Made it rain 💧💧💧💧
Can somebody tell me what happened here? Creighton is not that good! SOMEBODY DIED OR SOMETHING!!👿👿👿👿
Creighton is obviously that good....UConn needed humbling

This is about to be one of the best tournaments ever
Coming from a Nova fan, great job Creighton for beating Uconn.
Don't get too excited its almost Saturday (we're beating you)
@Thislivinghope What?
@Thislivinghope Wait, so you mean to tell me that teams with storied history and success shouldn't get prime time viewing because they had a bad season or two? Makes sense.
@Thislivinghope Come March, pretty much everyone will be covered on major programs.
@Thislivinghope Just skip over what I said that's cool.
After seeing what UConn has been doing to teams this March makes this all the more impressive
As a bama fan. This is one of my fav sleepers since last year heading into march. What a game for the jays!🤯🤯
“Sleeper”??? someone doesn’t watch big east basketball or even basketball for that matter.
Ashworth doing his best Ethan Wragge impression.
Coming from Uconn fan great shooting performance !
Good gracious creighton was on fire from 3
we knew that was what is it was going to take.. good thing to have it happen in the regular season
*That’s why you play the game!* 🤯
There is no place like CHI, they had that place going crazy tn
Are the baskets regulation height and diameter? Were they using a Women's ball? Rim bolts loosened?
Purdue needs to watch this tape 6 times today.
my Houston cougars are now ranked #1 in the country thanks creighton!
GO COUGS!!
I’d be surprised if UConn isn’t still easily the number one team
@@andrewblakeslee8709If UConn is number 1 in the country then why is there conference so small? Oh, I Got it. The Big 10, 12 and SEC are grabbing all the talent that is left on the planet.

Congratulations Creighton!
And now beaten #1 Kansas
Imagine this were an NCAA final
Happy for the Bluejays.
Ashworth reminds me of Bobby Hurley, great college player
way to go creighton
why would ever cut out the last four minutes of the game.
Like what is happening with these highlight edits??
Kalkbrenner should have been whistled for a foul for body and arm contact on Castle @ 2:27.
Loved this for Dan Hurley
Creighton and the Huskers are gonna make the tournament both for the first time in a long time
Creighton makes tourney nearly every year. Was elite 8 last year nearly final 4.
Do you watch basketball?

Good game by creighton because they came to win and UConn keep y’all head up yall got it next time

Creighton was good that day
Home team played amazingly and the best team in the country played poorly. This is what college hoops is all about!!!
I knew this was going to be an L for UConn ......Creighton os tough at home and that environment is wild
Big east feeling dangerous…2-20pt w/L uhh ohhh msg gonna be like the old days
Is there going to be a fine on Creighton for their fans rushing onto the floor.
Shut up
Jeez, you must be fun at parties
UConn close out perimeter defense got EXPOSED.
Like I said all year, they will fall with a shot blocking big and guards that can shoot the 3.
