Creighton will aim to build on Wednesday's shocking upset of No. 1 Kansas, taking on a visiting UNLV team hoping to avoid its third straight loss on Saturday in Omaha. UNLV (4-3) knows something about upsets, especially regarding Creighton (6-3). The Runnin' Rebels beat then-No. 8 Creighton 79-64 in December 2023 at the Jack Jones Classic in Henderson, Nev. Creighton stunned the Jayhawks with a decisive 76-63 win, led by Pop Isaacs' 27 points on 10-of-15 shooting, including six threes. Ryan Kalkbrenner and Steven Ashworth each added 17 points, helping the Bluejays to a second straight win after a three-game skid knocked them out of the AP Top 25 poll.
