Thunderin' Bolts vs Creighton

Gne_mkxWcAAiNr7


 
Every year, like year after year after year, it seems like NU plays Creighton 6 or 8 times from Nov to March (between basketball and baseball) and the BlueJays win most of those games.  

However, it feels like Creighton wins every time though.  

I mean, in the last 5-10 years, the Blue Jays might have a combined sport record of 50-10 against Nebraska.  Or something similar.  But definitely a winning record for sure.  

If it was football, everybody in Nebraska would know the w-l record.  Good thing it's only basketball and baseball, where it gets swept under the rug.

Since 2000, Nebraska holds a 40-27 record vs Creighton in baseball.  During our entire basketball history, we are 28-30 with wins in 2 of our last 3 years.  So just looking at those two sports, we have a combined winning record.  Not sure where the narrative is coming from but Creighton doesn't win most of anything.  Maybe it is coming from the bad stretch we had against them in basketball from 2011 to 2017 where we lost 7 in a row?

My apology, I wasn't trying to be disrespectful.  :cheers

My spidey-sense and frustration felt to me, like CU has owned NU in basketball & baseball the past 5-10 years or so, like I actually mentioned.  

But I am happy to hear that NU has the clear edge since 2000?

So I looked it up and my gut feeling was fairly accurate.

Last 10 matchups in baseball (from 2019 -2024) - Creighton is 8-1 against NU.

Over the last 9 years - Creighton 13-4 is against NU

Yikes.

Last 10 matchups in basketball (from 2015-2024) Creighton is 7-3 against NU.

Since 2012 - Creighton is 10-3 against NU is basketball.  

Yikes again.
