UConn got off to a slow start at Creighton on Sunday and found itself tied 10-10 with 3:41 left in the first quarter. It didn’t matter. The Huskies ran away with the contest during a dominant second quarter and eventually came out with a 95-54 victory.
Somehow, that’s not even their largest-ever victory over the usually-competitive Bluejays. On Jan. 3, 2024, UConn blitzed Creighton 94-50 in Hartford.
