So, last season, the #Jays finished #7. As late as January 2021, Creighton was ranked #7 nationally.
Today, the Bluejays are a 13.5 underdog to #1 Gonzaga. Ranked #19 heading into the Big Dance, and winning back to back NCAA Tournament wins for the first time in the proogram!
13 Christian Bishop
23 Damien Jefferson*
34 Denzel Mahoney
24 Mitch Ballock**
11 Marcus Zegarowski*
* scored in last game against Gonzaga in Omaha ** and in Spokane, in 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Gonzaga is the perennial favorite in NCAA #MarchMadness. Creighton (6-4) leads the series, but not in the modern game (0-2).
Can three be the charm today, after the games in 2017 and 2018 against Gonzaga and Mark Few?
#LetItFly #RollJays
We shall see how it plays out against a highly talented Zags team, who are playing in their sixth straight #SweetSixteen
