The only games Creighton won away from home last year were against Bradley, Evansville and Southern Illinois. Ouch, that'l leave a mark!!!


Actually, the record was 3-10 away from home. I think you might be counting some neutral court losses as away (11/26/09, Michigan 76-83; 11/27/09, Xavier 67-80; 11/29/09, Iona 55-63...Old Spice Classic in Orlando).

Also, in the course of the 5 years requested, Creighton only had one season of above .500 on the road. 08-09 with a 8-4 record. Two 5-8s and a 5-7 for the other years (along with the 3-10 from 09-10).

All right. Revised conference road records from 2005-06 to 2009-10:

1) UNI 26-19 (0.578)
2) CREI 22-23 (0.489)
3) SIU 19-26 (0.422)
4) BRAD 17-28 (0.378)
5) DRKE 15-30 (0.333)
5) MOST 15-30 (0.333)
7) ILST 14-31 (0.311)
8) WSU 13-32 (0.289)
9) INST 9-36 (0.200)
10) EVAN 6-39 (0.133)

You can tell the direct correlation between road wins and conference success (Drake is only as high as it is based on the 2007-08 season when they went 7-2 on the road in conference).

Curious as to why the range of 2005-2006 to 2010 is being used?

Forget it, that is a rhetorical question.

No idea, but that's what I went with in the stats.
