First of all I don't "love" Gibbs but I sure as heck have great respect for his game. After
some controversy on another thread I decided to really focus on him vs Drake yesterday.
Everyone knows how great McD is but just watch how much of CU's offense depends
on Gibbs......and he is NOT a PG as a few have suggested. He is a SF with some PG skills
namely penetrating and dishing. He plays on the wing but will slip down to a corner or
pop to the top. what he likes to do is drive right 3-4 steps usually from left to the free
throw line where he is looking to pass first to a man who back doors someone. if that isn't
there he looks for a shooter spotting up in the corner for a three and of course he is
dangerous to complete his drive if he doesn't draw another defender on him. the guys
court vision and awareness of where his teammates are is outstanding. he is quick to his
right. if we play them again I would really overplay him that direction and not let him do
what he repeatedly did to DU. I really think he is a very smart and complete player who
is a key to CU's success.

Did the tv guy say Creighton is hoping for a number 4 seed? Are they crazy?

I'd guess a 6 seed would be the highest they'd get and that's winning Arch Madness. I'd expect to see them be a 7-8 seed.

Well, it was a good run! I really appreciate Trop for putting this contest on here. It was a lot of fun to compete in. Also, congrats to shock-it-to-me on the win. I really didn't see Indiana State playing so awful.

Shock-it to-me, look for the contest championship game thread which will be posted this evening.

If we play in the championship game, I am dying to know how we are going to defend Dougie.
