Half-Court Press

Creighton's win over No. 1 Kansas not only massive for Jays, but Nebraska too


Listen Later

In the latest episode of Half-Court Press, Wilson Moore and Jon Walker make their post-Thanksgiving return by breaking down a tumultuous two weeks that started with Nebraska's defeat of Creighton, culminating in the Jays' upset of Kansas.

The guys open with a conversation about CU's up-and-down week at the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas that included back-to-back losses, Steven Ashworth returning from injury, and losing Ryan Kalkbrenner to an ominous lower body injury.

Next, Wilson talks about how the Huskers have used its momentum from the Creighton win to then dominate mid-majors the past couple games. The guys run through what adjustments NU has made to win in different ways, including the rise in Connor Essegian and other shooters beginning to warm up. 

The duo then deep-dive into the Bluejays' win over the Jayhawks, what the keys to success were, and how Greg McDermott's strategy and game plan worked, before discussing the impact this major win has for Nebraska's nonconference resume.

The guys close the episode by looking ahead to each team's matchup this weekend and specifically talk about how CU can avoid a hangover after taking down the No. 1 team in the nation.
