By: Jake Allman Published 12/13/2025, 12:40 AM ET

Kansas State heads to Omaha for a non-conference matchup with Creighton on Saturday afternoon, with the opening tipoff at 3:00 PM ET on FOX at the CHI Health Center. Kansas State enters at 6-4 overall and is still searching for its first true road win after an average early schedule. Creighton sits at 5-4 and has protected home court well with a 4-0 record in Omaha, making this a tricky spot for the Wildcats team. Big board, bigger value — see our winning college basketball predictions.

Kansas State Game Outlook

Kansas State brings one of the more explosive scoring teams in this matchup, averaging 86.7 points per game while shooting 49.0 percent from the field. P.J. Haggerty is the engine, pouring in 24.0 points per game on 50.9 percent shooting while also leading the team with 5.1 assists. Nate Johnson adds balance with 12.4 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 1.8 steals per game, giving Kansas State multiple playmakers in the backcourt. The Wildcats have been aggressive offensively, but the recent losses to Seton Hall, Bowling Green, Indiana, and Nebraska showed how difficult it becomes when turnovers spike and transition defense slips.

Creighton Game Outlook

Creighton has leaned on strong shooting and control rather than raw scoring, averaging 74.4 points per game while allowing 71.4. Josh Dix leads the Bluejays at 11.7 points per game and shoots 92.3 percent at the free-throw line, which matters late in tight games. Blake Harper provides rebounding at 5.8 boards per game, while Nik Graves contributes 3.6 assists and leads the team in steals. Creighton has not been dominant offensively, but the home wins have come from limiting mistakes and forcing opponents into longer half-court possessions.

Kansas State vs Creighton Prediction

This matchup comes down to tempo and shot quality. Kansas State wants to push and score early, while Creighton is comfortable grinding possessions and making opponents work deep into the shot clock. Creighton’s 37.2 rebounds per game and lower turnover numbers suggest an ability to slow Kansas State just enough, especially at home. Kansas State’s recent 108-49 win over Mississippi Valley State inflates the offensive numbers, but the road losses show how different the Wildcats look away from Manhattan.

Best bets for this game lean toward Creighton taking advantage of home court. Creighton on the moneyline is the safer angle given the 4-0 home record and Kansas State’s road struggles. The total is more interesting, but Creighton’s pace points toward a slightly lower scoring game than Kansas State prefers. The projected outcome favors Creighton 78-72, with the Bluejays controlling the final minutes and cashing the home side.
