HALFTIME: No. 15 Creighton 43, No. 1 UConn 29 This is UConnโs biggest halftime deficit of the season. Before tonight, the largest was 7 (at Kansas and at Butler). And per @ESPNStatsInfo, the last time they trailed by 10-plus at halftime was Jan. 25, 2023 at Xavier. ๏ฟผ
Creighton up 43-29 on UConn at the half. Two closest things UConn has to "weaknesses" are a lack of depth and 3-point defense (72nd nationally). Well, Creighton made eight 3's + 3 UConn players have two fouls apiece. If there's a blueprint to beat UConn - Creighton executed it
Danger zone in Omaha tonight for No. 1-ranked UConn. No. 15 Creighton leads the Huskies 43-29 at halftime. Steven Ashworth with 16 for the Jays.

Halftime: #WVU 37, UCF 30 Both are 1-5 since they last met, but the Mountaineers have their first halftime lead since Jan. 27. Quite a few Most Important Moments, it turns out, including some cameos by the officials. ๐ https://t.co/azZy8DuoLt https://t.co/GgqGs40eZV
#WVU goes minus-5 tonight. Had a 10-point lead and went 1-for-4 from the floor and 2-for-4 from the foul line. It's a 37-32 lead at the half. https://t.co/VCKmxN1ZE2
Another slow start for #UCF menโs hoops, who are down double-digits to West Virginia in the first half. Not ideal in a must-win situation.
