That's right: 31-2. Providence is a possible second-game opponent for the Hawkeyes, so I thought this was an interesting fact. That kind of run is nearly impossible against anyone, yet Creighton did it to Providence. You can see it for yourself here:

The game was tied at 25 with 5:40 to go in the first half when the run started. When it ended after about ten minutes of game time, 15:08 remained to be played, and Creighton led 56-27 on its way to an 85-58 upset win.

What does it mean for a possible Iowa-Providence match-up? Nothing, except that Providence is capable of losing, and losing big.
