    Thursday Play
    Nebraska +8 and they are 5-0 at home? Anyone else taking this?

    Creighton has played far tougher opponents and still outscore Nebraska by avg 18 points. Nebraska has 5 points better Opponent Avg Scoring than Creighton. Creighton has beaten every opponent near Nebraska's level by 10+ points. Even though its Creighton's first away game, they are only traveling 48 miles. The home court advantage doesn't have as much weight here.

    IMO, Nebraska's strongest overall opponent so far was Valparaiso and they won by 2. Valparaiso has NOWHERE NEAR the offensive firepower Creighton will have.

    Creighton covers this spread and wins by 12. Best of luck.

        Line screams Creighton but I'm not betting against Nebraska at home. It's them or no play. They continue to get no credit on the lines while quietly playing solid basketball against meager competition. They were 5 point dogs to Wake...ran them off the floor completely. Inexplicably they were getting 2 points against USC. Easy win.

        Nebraska is well-coached, they have seniors, they rebound. Creighton is gonna have to shoot the lights out to cover this spread.

          Started with Nebraska and im sticking to them. Creighton havent won away there for the last 8 games and I believe in stats like that. Nebraska are good against them at home, 8 points is alot at home. The atmosphere is a factor for sure. It actually helps that Creighton are ranked aswell, players eyes light up when they play on a home court to impress their fans by getting a win at home against a quality team
