15. Creighton Bluejays

Previous Ranking: 15

Record: 20-3 (7-3 Big East)

Creighton has scored two important victories over DePaul and Butler despite the absence of their leading point guard Maurice Watson Jr. Watson was lost for the year with an ACL injury. The Bluejays get reeling Xavier, who have lost four of six, next.

It’s been a team effort that is keeping the Bluejays in the Big East race. Both Marcus Foster and Justin Patton are still the best scoring options, but several guys have been stepping up. Cole Huff and Khyri Thomas have been contributing and the team just got senior center Zach Hanson back from an ankle injury. Continue to monitor this team as we enter the tense February schedule.
