Saturday afternoon, Creighton looks to snap a two-game losing streak when they host the DePaul Blue Demons, a team that comes to town with a 1-6 record in the Big East and is riding a three-game losing streak of their own. Despite their poor record and last-place standing, they’ve been a pesky team — they damn near beat Villanova in Philadelphia before losing 68-65, took Butler to overtime before falling 70-69 (after blowing a 25-10 lead ten minutes into the game), and knocked off Providence for their lone win.
Of course, they’ve also had the doors blown off of them by Seton Hall (87-56) and Marquette (83-58), and lost at home to both Rutgers (ouch) and Illinois-Chicago (super ouch).
