Creighton is located in Omaha, Nebraska and play in the Missouri Valley Conference. They lost in the semi-finals to Illinois State 73-49 on Saturday. This season they are 26-7 (14-4 in conference) and were co-champs of the MVC in the regular season. They do have some quality wins over New Mexico, at Northern Iowa, Dayton and in a bracket buster game vs George Mason. However they did have some bad losses to Nebraska and Drake. The experts say their 24 point loss will hurt their chances of making the field. The MVC has gotten mulitiple bids each of the last 5 years and I see no reason why they should be denied this year. Granted they don't have that one signature win, but I feel they would give someone a better game in the tourney than the crap of the SEC or ACC. Hopefully the committee will realize that Creighton is worthy of being one of the 65 teams. Like I said before, apparently 26 wins means nothing.
