What to Know
Creighton has been on the road for two straight, but on Tuesday they’ll finally head home. They and the Georgetown Hoyas will face off in a Big East battle at 8:30 p.m. ET at CHI Health Center Omaha. Georgetown took a loss in their last contest and will be looking to turn the tables on Creighton, who comes in off a win.
On Saturday, the Bluejays were able to grind out a solid victory over the Musketeers, taking the game 78-71.
Among those leading the charge was Ryan Kalkbrenner, who scored 28 points along with seven rebounds and four blocks. He is on a roll when it comes to blocks, as he’s now posted two or more in the last three games he’s played. Baylor Scheierman was another key contributor, dropping a double-double on 16 points and 12 rebounds.
Meanwhile, Georgetown’s recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their eighth straight loss. Their bruising 89-64 loss to the Huskies might stick with them for a while. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Georgetown in their matchups with the Huskies: they’ve now lost eight in a row.
Georgetown’s loss came about despite a quality game from Dontrez Styles, who scored 23 points along with six rebounds and two blocks. Styles is trending in the right direction, as he’s improved his point production for three games straight.
The Bluejays’ win bumped their record up to 17-7. As for the Hoyas, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost 11 of their last 12 matchups, which put a noticeable dent in their 8-15 record this season.
This contest is shaping up to be a blowout: Creighton just can’t miss this season, having made 48.4% of their shots per game. It’s a different story for Georgetown, though, as they’ve only made 41.6% of their shots this season. Given Creighton’s sizable advantage in that area, the Hoyas will need to find a way to close that gap.
Creighton strolled past the Hoyas in their previous meeting back in January by a score of 77-60. Will Creighton repeat their success, or do the Hoyas have a better game plan this time around? We’ll find out soon enough.
