Creighton loses to Nevada 77-71.
It's now up to SIU and Bradley to uphold the honor of the MVC.

Anyone who watched this game would get the idea that unless Dana Altman pulls a rabbit out of a hat, that Creighton is going to be hurting next year.
The three seniors carried Creighton the entire game, even tho Funk didn't have a particularly good first half, but he ended up with 23 points but only 1-7 on 3-pointers, and that one came almost too late to help.
The combination of Funk, Tolliver, Porter had 53 of the 71 points,
and everyone else combined had 18 pts, and was 7 for 21 and 2-12 from 3-point range.
