The highlights are here.

It appeared to me the clock didn't start on time on UNI's final possession. They got an extra .8-1.0 seconds.

The sequence of threes leading up to the final sequence was just as wild.  Teams were 5-for-5 from three in the last 1:10.

There was a hesitation on the restart but the final shot left his hand with about 1.5 left on the clock so it didn't really matter.   Fun game to watch.

#15 Creighton was upset at Evansville (I think they were like 10-11 or something like that).  Will that hurt the fact that UNI beat them, and in turn OUr win over UNI?

No...It may actually help us because the way RPI is calculated.  our opponents winning percentage and our opponents opponents winning percentage. Since Evansville actually factors into that for two of our opponents (Miami and UNI, it would actually be preferred that the team factored into our calculation twice win while a team factored in once loses.  If that makes sense.  Probably a wash either way.

I think opponents opponents percentage has a lesser influence than opponents, called a weighted average. Similar to getting an A in a 2 credit class versus in a 4 credit class (If you're still in school). Something along the lines of:

.5*(Win%)+.3 (Opp Win%) + .2*(Opp Opp Win%)

Without knowing the exact weights it is hard to say which is better for us, but in this example OOW%'s weight would need to be greater than half the weight of OW%.
