Creighton’s (12-11, 6-6 Big East) season hit another troubling checkpoint in a 76–68 loss to Georgetown (13-10, 5-7 Big East), a defeat that extended the Bluejays’ skid to three straight and raised fresh questions about their trajectory.

Creighton let another winnable game slip away, undone by the same issues that have fueled their recent slide.
