Marquette Golden Eagles
Conference play didn’t start early in the Big East like it did in the ACC and some other smaller conferences but it did begin before the New Year with Villanova holding off Xavier at home and Seton Hall earning a road win over DePaul in Myles Powell’s return on Monday night.
On the eve of the new year, Providence hosts Georgetown and Butler goes to St. John’s. This will be the only matchup on January 1st, the second game in a national doubleheader on the CBS Sports Network.

Marquette hasn’t lost since December 1, against Maryland, in Orlando, when Marcus Howard shot one-of-twelve and the Terps made it look easy, 84–63.
Howard, who is averaging over twenty-six points per game this season, hasn’t had a game like that since. He’s hit for thirty-two and thirty in his last two games and Marquette has won four in a row against Kansas State, North Dakota State and a pair of cupcakes.
Creighton Blue Jays
Creighton hasn’t lost since Thanksgiving, Nov. 28, when it was beaten properly, also at a neutral site, in Nevada, by San Diego State, 83–52. Of course, the Aztecs haven’t lost a game all season.
The Jays bounced back to beat Texas Tech the very next day and added convincing wins against Nebraska, Oklahoma and at Arizona State with a few cupcakes in-between.
The win in Tempe against the Sun Devils was especially impressive, given the trio of Ty-Shon Alexander, Mitch Ballock and Marcus Zegarowski, three guards that lead Creighton in scoring at over forty-seven points per game, combined for only twenty-six.
Sophomore Christian Bishop, Creighton’s fourth-leading scorer and highest-scoring forward at over eight points per game, had a dozen and senior guard Denzel Mahoney had fourteen.
Mahoney, who transferred from Southeast Missouri State before sitting out last season, was playing in just his second game of the season. He has since played in a third and has scored in double-figures in all three. Including him, Creighton has four guards in double-figures.
Mahoney is a welcomed addition with news that Davion Mintz, a senior point guard, will redshirt. Mintz never debuted this season due to injury.

Free Marquette Golden Eagles vs. Creighton Blue Jays NCAAB Prediction: its Creighton at home.
Marquette (30) comes into this game rated slightly higher than Creighton (50) in the Simple Rating System, an algorithm developed by Sports-Reference.
But Creighton will be rightfully favored on its home court, as it has, and may continue to be, all season.
Howard can’t do this by himself. Another young man, or two, will have to have a big game for Marquette to win this game on the road.
