    This should be a close game. And it should affect the brackets, because a lot of us have the winner of this game beating Memphis in the 2nd round.

    I picked Creighton with the upset.

    Nevada nails a contested 3 before the half to make it a one point game. 32-31 Creighton.

    The Tolliver-Fazekas matchup has been great, but I've been more impressed by that guard on Creighton (Funk, I think). His mid-range game is impressive.

    4 fouls on Tolliver and there's still 9:38 left. Fazekas might take advantage of this.

    I've been real impressed by the play of Nate Funk.

    Creighton forces 3 turnovers in a row to take a 57-52 lead.

    He throws it away! But, Funk threw up a bad shot in traffic!

    Creighton's got to stop flopping so much and actually contest shots.

    Dang. That's my first significant pick that got eliminated.

    Even though they're out though, that was a hell of a game. I like Nevada's chances in the next round.

    Damn, I had Creighton advancing and beating Memphis in the next round. The only upset I picked correctly was Winthrop over Notre Dame, but that wasn't much of an upset.

    Well, now two of my Sweet 16 teams are down for the count. Nice win for Nevada, I didn't think they could bang with Creighton and get this win. Marcellus Kemp impresses me quite a bit - I don't like his style, but he just gets it done.
