Creighton is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Wednesday games and 10-4 ATS in their last 14 road games. The under is 3-1-1 in Creighton’s last 5 games. Xavier is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 Wednesday games. The over is 19-6-1 in Xavier’s last 26 games. The underdog is 16-5 ATS in these two teams last 21 head to head meetings.

Xavier comes into this matchup as one of the hottest teams in the country, while Creighton has won three of their last four games. Xavier is scoring over 84 points per game and is shooting 51% from the field. Xavier is also allowing over 74 points against per game, which should allow Creighton to score a good amount of points. I like the over here.
