Pregame Primer: Creighton Begins Four-Game Homestand Against Oral Roberts

After picking up their biggest win of the young season by defeating #12 Texas Tech in Las Vegas, Creighton begins a four-game homestand Tuesday night. The opponent is Oral Roberts, a veteran team picked to finish third in the preseason Summit League poll. The Golden Eagles have played the nation’s fifth-toughest schedule to this point, and they’ve given the teams on that schedule a run for their money.

  • They lost 80-75 at KenPom’s #22 team, Oklahoma State, and were competitive throughout — they never trailed by more than 10 points, and made the Cowboys sweat out the win with a furious late rally that saw them trim the deficit to a single possession.
