    Love the Creighton play! Add the fact it's senior day for Creighton... 17,300 tickets have been sold and Ill States coach said today.... THIS GAME HAS NOTHING TO PLAY FOR HERE. IT'S A MEANINGLESS GAME FOR THEM AND HE IS CONSIDERING RESTING HIS STARTERS IN THE SECOND HALF.

    Why would he rest them in the 2nd half? They not playing tomorrow. After losing 2 straight your mindset should be to win. I don't think Illinois St has a guaranteed at large bid so a win over Creighton for the 2nd time this year would hep their cause. They can't assume they will win the conference tournament and get the automatic bid.

    Yeah that's quite a suspicious statement if the guy really made it and meant it. Illinois State is not getting an at-large. I can remember when they were undefeated then they get into a mid-major conference schedule and go a little over .500. They had better be trying to win.

    No his point was that they have no chance of an at large, no chance at reg. season conference championship, and not chance of improving their seed in conference tourny......so that's why there is nothing to play for
