Le Moyne Dolphins vs. Creighton Blue Jays Prediction

I’m on Creighton in this one. I get the case to be made for a team like Le Moyne that’s catching a bunch of points here against a Creighton team that historically hasn’t been the best when laying big numbers. However, there’s still a massive talent gap in this game, and I think that Creighton comes out with a message to be sent against the Dolphins in this one. I’ll back Creighton laying the big number here.
