2024 Creighton Baseball

Series is over since Georgetown had to fly home by 4:30.

Blossom should make a change now. Maybe it would rejuvenate them for the rest of the season.

I now wish all 3 games would have been rained out. I guess it's still mathematically possible to finish 4th but it will take a miracle to catch either St. John's or Xavier.
Going 6-3 to finish 10-10 and season is over
Going 7-2 to finish 11-9 would give us a small chance.
Going 8-1 to finish 12-8 would give us a very good chance
Going 9-0 to finish 13-7 would lock it up

Now impossible to catch Georgetown.
Catching UConn would require an epic collapse by the league's hottest team. Won't happen.
Could sweep St. John's and still wouldn't be enough to catch the Storm, although Storm still have to face Georgetown.
But just 2 games from leaping Xavier, the only realistic hope.

Problem is, Xavier still gets to play Butler and Nova. But if X is swept at Georgetown, there's some hope here.

[Tdjay114]

We're basically banking on Butler and Nova winning a game or two against X, and St. John's losing the series to G-town. We need a sweep at St. John's. We need to win as much as possible. There's slight hope. Not Much. But we need Butler and Nova to pull a few upsets.

The likelihood of the needed collapses by others is so remote as to be practically nonexistent. The bigger problem, though, is really that there is absolutely no reason to expect Creighton to be able to win as many weekend games against the top of the league as would be required even in the event of those unlikely collapses.

I'll freely admit here if somehow they prove me wrong, but losing those two games to Georgetown last weekend basically sealed that this season is over and there is no possibility at all of postseason play, yet again. Incredibly showing in nonconference, midweek games, beating ranked opponents, etc. -- all for absolutely nothing once again.

Midweek Jays baseball showing up tonight.

Jays get a six spot in the first against UNL.

[Tdjay114]

This team is absurd. Jekyll and Hyde. About to be 6 and 3 against quad 1. ... these next 6 in conference determine the season. Win like we have against other quad 1 teams and we will be in prasco. Time to make a run.

[LJay]

The rest of the Big East should send flowers to Ed. Midweek Monsters of the Midway getting rolled on the weekend pumps up the ratings for the rest of the league.

[Tdjay114]

Prediction: Dom pitches this weekend. And Cade Lommel starts one of the games.
