The Creighton men’s basketball team heads back to the court after the Christmas break to start a crazy week. First they finish up the non-conference season against Coppin State on Monday night and then hit the road to New York to open Big East conference season against St. John’s on Thursday before returning home and taking on the conference favorite Villanova on Saturday night. The Bluejays will learn a lot about themselves this week.
However, first things first. Coppin State comes into Omaha on Monday night to hopefully give the Bluejays a tuneup before the Big East conference play gets underway. The weather outside will be fierce which may keep fans at home. In case you can’t make it out to the CenturyLink Center for the 8:15 p.m. tip, here are the ways you can follow the game.
