The Creighton men’s basketball team looks to have hit the wall many teams run into at least once during a long season. The Bluejays’ current two-game losing streak has some fans nervous. But there is still some perspective to be kept about the season as a whole.
Wichita State took a one game lead over Creighton in the Missouri Valley Conference race with a win over Northern Iowa on Wednesday night. With the conference lead on the line, Saturday’s showdown will include a rowdy environment at the CenturyLink Center.
With the game being sold out and limited standing room only tickets available on Saturday, some will not be able to be there in person. If you are on the outside looking in, here are the ways you can follow the 4:00 p.m. tip with our Media Menu.
