The Butler Bulldogs will head to Omaha, Nebraska to take on the Creighton Bluejays in a Big East clash on Wednesday night. The #12 ranked Bulldogs have gotten off to a fast start, posting a 14-2 overall record and a 3-1 mark in conference play. Butler has rose to the occasion when facing ranked opponents this season, going 4-0 against teams in the top 25. Their biggest win of the year came last week, as they beat the top-ranked Villanova Wildcats 66-58 in front of a raucous Hinkle Fieldhouse crowd.
It won’t be an easy task for Butler to extend their record to 5-0 against ranked opponents for two main reasons. Number one, all four of their previous games against top 25 teams took place at home. And secondly, Creighton just happens to be really damn good.
After beating both St. John’s and Providence on the road last week, Creighton was ranked #8 in Monday’s AP poll. It’s the highest ranking the school has ever gotten, and they are clearly very deserving of being placed among the country’s elite teams. The Bluejays are 15-1 overall and their 3-1 record in conference play ties them with Butler and Xavier for second place in the Big East.
