10* Home Cooking Heavy Hitter Play
(NCAAB) Creighton vs. Xavier,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -112.00 Xavier (Home)
Result: Win
This is a great matchup for Xavier and a game they will win at home. Xavier when playing at home, have been playing a better defensive than expected. And they will need to tighten it up vs this Creighton team in the game to have a chance. On the break, Xavier needs to stop and make the pass, moving the ball on the break is essential for victory. They need to let the smart play of Semaj Christon take over the game. Christon has improved on his perimeter shot this year while the freshman Dee Davis has been playing his best basketball of the season over the last 5 games. I really feel this game will be decided in the paint with Xavier being the more physical, scrappy team. With them being on the bubble and with a 15-1 SU record at home, I love them in this spot on Saturday afternoon.
