OMAHA, Neb. -- Creighton and Xavier both still have visions of winning the Big East Conference regular season title and securing the top seed for the conference tournament at Madison Square Garden.
Once the Bluejays (20-3, 7-3 Big East) and Musketeers (16-6, 6-3) finish their pivotal 2 p.m. CST showdown Saturday at CenturyLink Center, only one team will remain within a game of first place Villanova.
Bluejays coach Greg McDermott hopes No. 22-ranked Creighton is that squad. McDermott knows that, at a minimum, the Jays must hold serve in their remaining four home games.
"We have no margin for error left," McDermott said.
