After a week off to lick their wounds from a gut-punch loss to Xavier, Creighton begins the home stretch of the season with a Saturday matinee in Chicago. They have seven games remaining, with just two of them against teams that currently have a winning record in the league (at Villanova and at Marquette). The other five? At Seton Hall (5-6), a trio of home games against St. John’s (5-7), Georgetown (4-8) and Providence (4-8), and Saturday’s game at DePaul (1-10). It’s as manageable of a seven-game stretch as you could hope for, with home games against the 7th, 8th, and 9th place teams and road games at the 5th, 6th and 10th place teams.
