Ed. Note: This is the part of our summer series that will look back at games from years past, including highlight packages. Not all of these games are classics in the traditional sense, but all of them feature terrific performances from Bluejay greats, and we think you’ll enjoy watching them as much as we did. This week is special, as we look back at all three games of the 2003 MVC Tournament with three Rewinds in three days. Enjoy!
The 2002-03 Creighton Bluejays entered the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament with a nation-leading 26 wins. They’d been ranked for 13 straight weeks, held an RPI of 31, and had two wins over Top 20 teams (#10 Notre Dame and #19 BYU), as well as wins over #38 SIU and #62 Fresno State.
