Creighton comes home licking the wounds suffered at the hands of the Shockers. But the Bluejays can’t dwell on Saturday’s painful loss at Wichita because the Salukis are coming to town. The Jays find themselves riding an unfamiliar winning streak against SIU coming into tonight’s game, having taken the last three meetings between the two schools. But many CU fans wouldn’t be surprised if the only team with a winning record at Qwest Center Omaha other than the Jays got back to its winning ways in Omaha.
