Creighton vs Providence ATS Pick: Creighton -2 (-110)

Backing Creighton in college basketball spreads has not been a solid bet recently. The Bluejays have covered in 3 of their last 10 games, having failed to do so in three straight.

However, that has not hurt the team’s record. Creighton still went 7-3 over the last 10 games, with the size of the spread playing a significant factor in it not covering. Out of the 11 games that the Bluejays have played against Big East opponents, only two games had a spread lower than five, while they were favored to win by double digits six times.

Creighton does have a pretty solid offense, averaging the third-most points per game in the conference (80.5). Still, the Bluejays have struggled to cover large spreads, especially when facing Big East teams. The good thing is that college basketball lines have this game set up to be close, which might be better for a Creighton to cover.

The offense also plays through four players: Baylor Scheierman, Trey Alexander, Ryan Kalkbrenner, and Steven Ashworth. In the loss to Butler, those four players all had 20 or more points, while only one other person scored, and he had four points.

Creighton vs Providence Over/Under Pick: Under 143½ (-110)

Creighton’s overreliance on those four players is why this game could hit the under. No other player on the roster averages over seven points per game, while the four combine for 62.1. If just one has an off game, the offense could struggle.

On top of that, what might help college basketball predictions side with the under is Providence’s defense. The Friars allow the second-fewest points per game in the Big East (66.5) and are fourth when facing conference opponents (69.5). That level of defense, plus being at home, can cause some issues for Creighton’s four main offensive threats and possibly slow them down.
