Nebraska won 3 consecutive times in Omaha between 1991 and 1995.

 

That was what I thought too.   There were a few years back then when their program was down and there were more Nebraska fans at the games in Omaha than Creighton fans. 

Now if we could figure how to do this thing at home next year.

I sure woulda thought so, but the chyron at the end of the game said it was the first time we'd won consecutive road games in series history. I think you're right and the stats guys who come up with the chyrons need to do better research.

Maybe they meant "this century."

Who stole Sam's head-band?

Sam got a haircut it appeared so headband was not needed.

Contributions from all who played. Griffith didn't look good but he will be needed at some point. Playing that many guys someone is going to be off. Not going to fault a guy as everybody has off night. He will be needed at some point this season in my opinion. Trying not to be to excited but beating "them" makes me very, very happy. 

One of those giant stat databases is going to have to find the last time a college player logged 38:37 in a non-OT game and took 1 shot. Might have to go back to peach basket days.

For a guy shooting 89.1% coming into the game, yes, it's definitely a first. Sheesh Louise, that D on Kalk was epic.

Either Essegian or Griffiths needs to be 'on' and tonight it was all Connor. He was ballin'!!!

We are savages tonight on Twitter and it's glorious 

 

 

Best one I saw was "Ryan Kalkbrenner Insurance Agnecy"

Did anyone else enjoy Traudt airball?

Is it healthy to start tailgating now for the football and volleyball games tomorrow?  Asking for a friend.

We had over 25 FT attempts and 20 FT makes for the 5th consecutive games.  Going back to 2010 we've never done that. It wouldn't surprise me if this was the first time.

This is the 4th consecutive win for the road team in this series. That's the first time that's ever happened.

It sounds like Creighton fans will be tailgating you down I-80 to get to the game tomorrow. So tailgate away!

Sounds like he committed to Nebraska winning.

And what did Green get? 5 minutes?

Hopefully Ashworth is ok, he has a new baby at home and is looking to get that promotion at work.

Creighton's upcoming schedule looks tough.  Do I root for them to help the NET or not?

Nebraska is still working on becoming a great team.  If we can start hitting some threes...  The next two games aren't automatic.  We need to get better.

I thought everyone gave us good minutes tonight.  There were only a couple turnovers that weren't good.  Griffiths in the first half.  Then Worster trying to get the ball to Morgan in the 2nd half.

Really like those road jerseys!

Creighton 3pt shooting, last 3 years vs Nebraska, playing against Loenser's defense
