The Creighton Bluejays come back home to the friendly confines of the Qwest Center for their first matchup of the season with the Wichita State Shockers. Both teams are tied for second place in the Valley and chasing Missouri State. The Bears beat both CU and WSU in their respective home buildings.
Speaking of which, the Qwest Center should be rocking this evening. There’s a white out going on in Omaha, as the city is still shoveling itself out of the year’s first major storm. There’s a White Out inside the Qwest tonight, too. And if you show up early for tonight’s 7 p.m. game, you can snag $1 beers and sodas by the Bud Bar until tip-off.
But we at WBR understand that many of our readers can’t make it to the games in Omaha. Below are the options for tracking Wednesday’s 7 p.m. game against Wichita State.
