Recap & Analysis:
In their first road game of the 2017-18 season, against a veteran team ranked in the Top 20, the Creighton Bluejays not only won but did it impressively. They dictated pace throughout the game, running every chance they had en route to scoring 92 points on a Northwestern team that prides itself on defense and out-working their opponent. And they did it on the road in front of a feistier-than-usual crowd in Rosemont. Impressive? You bet.
After a back-and-forth beginning whose pace clearly favored the deeper Bluejays, a CU player once again fell victim to the dreaded Allstate Arena Curse.
