Opening the Conference Season
The Creighton Basketball Schedule begins with a home game against Villanova on December 19. That matchup gives the Bluejays an early opportunity to set the tone in front of the home crowd.
Two days later the Creighton Men’s Basketball Schedule sends the team on the road at Xavier before returning home for a New Year’s Eve contest against Marquette and a January 3 home date against UConn. Those two early home games provide strong support opportunities as the conference slate gets underway.
January Stretch of Key Matchups
January brings a mix of home and road games that includes several high-profile opponents. Home dates against DePaul and St. John’s give the Creighton Basketball team chances to protect the home floor.
Road games at Seton Hall, Georgetown, Marquette and Villanova create a demanding stretch. The January 27 trip to Villanova stands out as one of the tougher road environments on the Creighton Men’s Basketball Schedule.
February Balance and Rivalry Games
February continues the balanced pattern with home games against Georgetown, Providence, Seton Hall and Xavier. Those four home contests provide strong opportunities to build conference momentum.
Road trips to UConn, St. John’s, Butler and DePaul will require consistent play away from home. The February 7 game at UConn and the February 10 contest at St. John’s are two of the more challenging road tests remaining on the Creighton Basketball Schedule.
