T.M. Selection: Creighton.

I like Creighton to cover the spread against Marquette in this game on Sunday. Creighton has won 4 games in a row now and they have looked really good in those games. They have won their 3 most recent games by 10+ points and I think they are continue playing great in this game too. They have looked great at home this year at 9-3 and they have been climbing up the standings lately with their surge that they are on. I think Creighton can get the win here on their home court, especially when Marquette has a road record below .500. Marquette just won their most recent game but they had lost 2 in a row before getting that win and both of those losses were in road games too. They have lost 3 road games in a row now and I think they are going to continue struggling in road games here. Creighton has looked a lot better lately and they have been winning their games by big margins. I think they can come away with a win over Marquette since Marquette has been giving up a lot of points lately. They have given up 80+ points in 2/3 of their previous 3 games and they have done it in their 2 most recent road games too. Creighton has been putting out a very good defensive effort lately, they have given up 70+ points in 1/4 of their previous 4 games and they even gave up less than 60 points in 2 of those games. Marquette has been up and down lately and I think they will struggle in this road game like they have for most of the year. Creighton is surging at the moment and with the season winding down they will come to play their best basketball here. I like Creighton to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 77-69 Creighton.
