The 2017-18 regular season wraps up Saturday afternoon in the same place it ended a year ago: the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, against the Marquette Golden Eagles. Creighton’s played themselves into an opportunity to finish all alone in third place by virtue of beating Villanova and DePaul last week, and that’s precisely where they’ll end up if they win on Saturday. That would get them the final game of the day on Thursday in New York, and an 8:30pm central tip against the six seed. As for the NCAA Tournament, Creighton’s safely in; they’re playing for a better seed at this point, with bracketologists in wild disagreement about where they’ll fall, with the most reputable projections slotting them anywhere from a 6 to a 10.
