Last year, they met much earlier in the NCAA Tournament — Creighton won 72-69 in overtime in the first round.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Creighton and San Diego State have dreamed of being in this situation for years. And it's not the first time each team has stood in the other's way.
The Bluejays were one of the final eight teams in the tournament once before, in 1941, but it wasn't called the Elite Eight at the time because, well, there were only eight teams in the entire event.All San Diego State had to do to advance was beat No. 1 overall seed Alabama. The teams have been together once since last year's first-round thriller. They shared a round-trip flight to Hawaii for the Maui Invitational last fall. But only one of them will be flying to Houston for the Final Four.San Diego State’s physical defense held the Crimson Tide to 32% shooting, blocked eight shots and made nine steals. On the other hand, the Aztecs shot just 38%, were outrebounded 52-48 and missed nine of 22 free throws against Alabama.
