StatSheet now projects Creighton as a 12 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Bluejays are unranked in the AP Poll and sit at #30 in the StatSheet StatRank with a 22-5 overall record and a 12-4 record in the Missouri Valley.

Over the last four games, Creighton registered a win against Southern Illinois but also hit a setback with losses to AP #24 Wichita State and RPI #51 Northern Iowa and a bad loss to RPI #157 Evansville.

Creighton is decent against top competition, with a 5-4 record against the RPI Top 100 that includes a 3-2 record against the RPI Top 50 and a 2-1 record against AP ranked teams. The Bluejays have three quality wins including AP #24 Wichita State, RPI #41 Northwestern, and AP #13 San Diego State. Their only bad loss came against RPI #157 Evansville.
