This game is good prep for the BE. There will be games called like this during the season, but if the refs were calling a tight game tonight things would look a lot different for us

We made our first two threes. Since then we are 1-10 from three.

I get that’s it the rule — but how can you review a goaltend call several minutes later when they blew a live play dead. If you take those points away, you also took away a chance for an offensive rebound. Makes no sense.

Miller's just feeling so confident from 3 right now

Alexander completely manning up against all that contact every time down the court

Kalk isn’t doing anything special right now. This is what he always does. It stands out tonight because we got a lengthy sample size of what happens without him. It makes the recent attacks on him all the more laughable. Some folks just don’t know basketball.

Kalk is an all-time legend at Creighton. Tonight was needed to get some to recognize that.

Maybe the greatest thing of the night so far is if Trey rediscovered that mid-range jumper. Let’s hope that is soon eclipsed by a victory. What a game!!

Bello got completely body checked into the floor a couple plays ago. Ridiculous just how much Bama fouls in the course of a game. They completely dare the officials to make the calls

Great coaching move by Oats to go “small” and force Kalk outside on Nelson. They are getting to the rim again. How can we adjust?

We did something a while back where we switched to keep Kalk in the paint, and our 4's can probably play Nelson

If we do keep Kalk in (may have to if we don't want his ankle to stiffen up), I'd go right at whoever they use to play Kalk in the post and foul them out
