This question came up last year and I admitted then that for baseball, it is a rivalry from the Creighton perspective. I've heard Servais say, "we've got a nice little rivalry with those guys" as well.

I think there has been at least a little bit of a rivalry in baseball ever since the 1988 valley tourney when WSU was chosen to be the conference champ (we did win the regular season, and were ahead by 1 run over Creighton) when the championship game couldn't be completed in time due to rain.
Of course it grew during the 1991 season when Creighton had a great team but couldn't beat the Shockers (WSU was 8-0 that year against CU including 2 wins in the CWS).
