Saturday afternoon, Creighton welcomes the four-time defending regular season Big East champion and third-ranked Villanova Wildcats to the CLink. They’re 25-3 on the season, 12-3 in the league, and have beaten the Jays eight consecutive times. They hung 98 points on CU three weeks ago in winning by 20. And they’re an unbelievable 154-20 since the Big East reconfigured at the start of the 2013-14 season, with 14 teams defeating them once and four teams doing it twice. Creighton’s part of the latter group, but hasn’t won against Villanova since Doug McDermott, Grant Gibbs, Ethan Wragge, and Jahenns Manigat were scoring buckets for the Bluejays.
