• Box Score: Wichita State 89, Creighton 68
* * *
Gregg Marshall needed but five words Saturday to sum up his Wichita State team's 89-68 dissection of No. 17 Creighton.
“It was a no-doubter,'' Marshall said.
And now there is little doubt which team will win the Missouri Valley regular-season title. The victory, before the largest crowd ever to see a Creighton home game, left the Shockers with a two-game lead with three to play.
Wichita State dominated all facets of play in handing Creighton its worst home loss since Nebraska also won by 21 points in December 1995. It also was the Bluejays' worst loss at home to the Shockers since a 22-point setback in 1953.
“This is an embarrassing loss,” Creighton forward Doug McDermott said. “This one hurts a lot.”
