Nebraska moved to 22-7 with the win, while the Bluejays fell to 15-8 overall.
The Huskers jumped out to an early lead with three runs in the second inning, then added two more in the fourth.
That was more run support than Nebraska's Garett King needed as he limited Creighton to one run on two hits in eight innings to pick up the win (3-0). Creighton's Jeff Albrecht suffered the loss (1-2), allowing three runs on three hits and two walks in 1.2 innings.
The Bluejays got their run in the fifth as junior Harrison Crawford led off the frame with a triple into right and junior Brett Murray followed with a sacrifice fly. Junior Reagan Fowler also collected a single in the seventh.
Creighton returns to action on Thursday as the Bluejays begin BIG EAST play at Georgetown. The Hoyas and Bluejays begin a three-game set at 2 pm.
