Who's Playing

No. 24 Brigham Young @ Creighton

Current Records: Brigham Young 8-1; Creighton 7-2

What to Know

The Creighton Bluejays will take on the #24 Brigham Young Cougars at noon ET Saturday at Sanford Pentagon. Creighton will be seeking to avenge the 88-82 loss they suffered the last time these two teams played March 22 of 2016.

The Bluejays entered their contest against the Iowa State Cyclones on Saturday without any home losses -- but there's a first time for everything. Creighton was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 64-58 to Iowa State. Despite the defeat, Creighton got a solid performance out of forward Ryan Hawkins, who had 25 points along with five rebounds.

Meanwhile, BYU strolled past the Utah State Aggies with points to spare on Wednesday, taking the game 82-71. The Cougars got double-digit scores from four players: guard Alex Barcello (17), guard Te'Jon Lucas (14), forward Fousseyni Traore (14), and guard Trevin Knell (13).

The Bluejays are expected to lose this next one by 5.5. Against the spread, they have been house darlings this year with a chancy 3-6 ATS record.

Brigham Young's win lifted them to 8-1 while Creighton's loss dropped them down to 7-2. We'll see if BYU can repeat their recent success or if Creighton bounces back and reverse their fortune.
