636 Creighton -11.0 (-110) BetOnline vs 635 Georgetown
Analysis:
Creighton -11
Laying double digits always dangerous in conference play but Georgetown down 18 points ppg in starts out for suspension and injury and Creighton off a huge blowout win over Nova on Monday where their backcourt lit up Nova with a ton of 3 pointers and Georgetown cannot trade punches on the scoreboard or have no answer for McDermott.

Opinion - WAKE FOREST (-2) over Notre Dame
12:00 PM Pacific Rotation: 560
Wake Forest is 11-0 at home with wins over 3 teams that are better than Notre Dame (NC, St. Bonaventure, and Richmond). Notre Dame covered in their loss at Florida State but I still think the Irish are overrated and my ratings favor Wake Forest by 3 ½ points in this game. I’ll lean with the Demon Deacons at -2 or less and I’d take Wake Forest in a 2-Star Best Bet at -1 or better.
Opinion - PROVIDENCE (-2) over Xavier
09:00 AM Pacific Rotation: 522
Xavier has covered the spread in 9 consecutive games but teams that covered their last 7 or more lined games are just 107-156-4 ATS on the road, including 42-80-1 ATS as an underdog against a .500 or better team. Providence is also playing well (4 straight wins and covers) and Xavier has been very lucky that their opponents have made just 62.1% of their free throws this season. That’s the lowest percentage in the nation and well below the 69.1% that their opponents combine to average for the season. Xavier isn’t going to be so lucky in this game given that Providence leads the nation with 80% free throw shooting as a team. My ratings make this game a pick after adjusting for Xavier’s lucky free throw shooting ‘defense’, so the line is a bit off. However, Providence applies to a 117-44-5 ATS home momentum situation and Xavier is due for a down game. I’ll lean with Providence at -2 or less and I’d take Providence in a 2-Star Best Bet at -1 or better.
