The Arizona State Sun Devils (12-8, 3-6 Big 12) have a golden opportunity to end their home losing streak against rival Arizona (14-6, 8-1 Big 12) when they meet in Tempe on Saturday afternoon. ASU’s last home win over the Wildcats came in January 2020. Since then, the Sun Devils have struggled mightily against their in-state rivals, with head coach Bobby Hurley holding a 4-15 overall record against Arizona (2-7 at home).

Both teams are coming off losses and are eager to get back on track in Big Ten play.

Boston College hasn’t won since a 78-68 victory over Miami on Jan. 1. Since then, the Eagles have struggled, losing four games by 18 or more points. Their most recent loss, a 102-96 overtime battle at North Carolina, showed glimpses of promise, especially on offense. The Eagles made a season-high 14 three-pointers in that game despite missing forward Elijah Strong (10.5 PPG) for the third straight contest due to illness. With Strong out, BC has adopted a four-guard lineup, which has helped offensively but made rebounding a major challenge. BC’s

Creighton has been one of the hottest teams in the Big East since its first meeting with Villanova, and the Bluejays will look to extend their strong play when they visit the Wildcats for a Saturday showdown in Villanova, Pa. The Bluejays (15-6, 8-2 Big East) have won eight of their last nine games since defeating Villanova 86-79 on Dec. 21. In that victory, Ryan Kalkbrenner led the way with 23 points, while Steven Ashworth had a 20-point, 11-assist double-double. Creighton’s offensive efficiency was on full display as they shot 55.4% from the field and 14-of-25 from three-point range.
