Creighton makes it 2 wins in less than a year against No. 1s, with Jayhawks latest to lose in Omaha

AP Sports Writer

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Creighton has played eight No. 1 teams in its program’s history, and the first six of those games weren’t close. All were losses. The last two were Bluejay blowouts at the CHI Health Center. Creighton took down top-ranked Kansas 76-63 in a game in which the Bluejays never trailed and led by as many as 17 points. Ten months ago they upset a No. 1 Connecticut 85-66. That was UConn’s last loss before they won 13 in a row on its way to a second straight national title. Five of the Creighton players on the court against KU played against UConn.
