Coming in to Monday’s New Year’s Eve matinee between #20 Marquette and Creighton, there was a lot of reasons to wonder who was going to win the game. Marquette had handled Providence very easily on Saturday, but along the way, Allazia Blockton, the program’s all-time leading scorer left the game after eight minutes of action and did not return. At the same time, Creighton knocked off #19 DePaul back on Saturday night in their Big East opener and it stands to reason that if they could knock one of the ranked co-favorites in the league on the road, they could absolutely do it again a second time in three days.
