The No. 14 UConn Huskies (13-4) will look to keep their home dominance alive as they host the Creighton Bluejays (11-6) on Saturday at 12:00 PM ET. UConn enters this matchup riding a five-game home winning streak.
The Bluejays have had a few inconsistent performances this season but have generally been steady. Creighton started strong with wins over UTRGV, Fairleigh Dickinson, Houston Christian, and Kansas City. However, they hit a rough patch, losing to Nebraska, San Diego State, and Texas A&M. They bounced back with victories over Notre Dame, Kansas, and UNLV before suffering defeats to Alabama and Georgetown. Recently, Creighton has found a rhythm, going 4-1 in their last five games, with the only setback being a loss to Marquette. Wins over Villanova, St. John’s, Butler, and Providence have helped them improve to an 11-6 record.
On the other side, the Huskies began their season on a high note but encountered some turbulence in late November. UConn opened with wins over Sacred Heart, New Hampshire, Le Moyne, and East Texas A&M before dropping three straight games to Memphis, Colorado, and Dayton in a neutral-court stretch. Since then, the Huskies have regained momentum, securing wins over MD Eastern Shore, Baylor, Texas, Gonzaga, Xavier, Butler, DePaul, Providence, and Georgetown, with just one loss to Villanova in that span. Their impressive run has brought them to a 13-4 overall mark.
