Creighton shouldn't be giving 12 points in this game at all. In fact I'm even considering Fresno on the ML.

Ya according to the Power Rankings this is a 3pt game...12 pts is a ton as Fresno isn't great but playing at home they have a chance. I'd say go for it.

hmm...didn't see anythinga bout that but yes you are correct. I still think Fresno can cover this one though. Not betting on it as I've already made my pics.

I follow Creighton and I decided not to play this game. Creighton looks to be the team to win the Mo Valley this year. Creighton is basically 8-1. You cant count the 2 point loss at Nebraska...... one of Creightons top players was suspended for that game. Creighton has lived up to expectations this year except for a loss to Arkansas LR on the road. (where they lead by 7 at the half and fell apart in the last 2 minutes)
Dayton came to town and Creighton beat them 77-59.
The talk around the country is that the Missouri Valley is down this year. Creighton knows this. They need "quality wins" to lock up a spot in the tournament.
Fresno State at 6-5 doesnt impress me. St Marys beat them by 14. San Diego St beat them by 24. Montana beat them by 4!
I think the line makers hit this one right on target. I see Creighton being up by 12 with 1 minute left.... so who covers??
Definately too close to call but good luck on what you decide to do!

More on Creighton.......
Creighton is a young team that lost 2 stars to the NBA. They do have talent on this team. They are learning to play together. Against New Mexico they were down by 10 at the half and then outscored NM 55-38 in the second half. Against Oral Roberts they were down by 2 at the half and then outscored them 54-30 in the second half. At the beginning of the year they would start slow and then roll.
Now they seem to be getting off to a better start and actually playing 2 good halves. This would be a perfect time to break out and add another "quality win" under their belt.
Just my opinion.....

Let's not forget that the Beavers whooped the Bulldogs already this year. I doubt I need to remind people how bad the Beavers are in basketball. This game is a no play for me.

I think Fresno State will cover. I don't think they win straight up. So the play is either Fresno State + the points or Creighton on the moneyline.

Illinois St is good...... we will see!
I bet they split the reg season games..... and one teams wins the league and the other wins the tournament.
