Fairleigh Dickinson vs Creighton Prediction

I’ll probably just stick with Creighton, but it’s an awfully thick line to mess with. The Bluejays shot an impressive 60 percent from the field and 89.7 percent (26 of 29) from the line with 20 assists in their win over UTRGV, but it still turned out to be something of a homy performance. Creighton did cough up 15 turnovers and wasn’t spectacular from 3-point range (7-for-23), but still got the W.

As for FDU, they gave up 66.7 percent against Miami in their opener and were outscored 37-22 on the boards. Creighton should also be able to control the glass in this one, which will give the Bluejays some second chances to score and help with the potential coverage.
