The #19 Villanova Wildcats dominated the Creighton Blue Jays 75-41 on Wednesday night to avenge the 20-point whoopin’ they took earlier this season.
The story of the first half was the defensive effort from the ‘Cats. Villanova won the turnover battle 10-3 and tallied 17 rebounds. Creighton, though not necessarily having a bad shooting night, was flustered by the ‘Cats switches early. The Blue Jays failed to capitalize on mismatches and were unable to extend possessions - grabbing just 2 offensive rebounds in the half.
