Creighton at Seton Hall recap: Watson, Bluejays dominate Pirates

Maurice Watson put on an absolute clinic and the Creighton Bluejays coasted their way to a third Big East conference win in Newark.

Another virtuoso performance by Maurice Watson helped Creighton keep the wins coming on Saturday, as the Bluejays put a 82-67 beatdown on host Seton Hall at the Prudential Center.

Fresh off a 27-point outing against Georgetown, Watson controlled the game from start to finish, scoring 13 points, but more importantly, handing out 14 assists. To put that in perspective, Seton Hall had eight as a team.

Watson's ability to lead the offense helped keep everyone happy for Greg McDermott's squad, as the Bluejays shot 45.
