Marquette Golden Eagles vs Creighton Bluejays Predictions 3/10/2022

After losing a home game to Seton Hall to close the regular season, the Bluejays are in a good position to make the NCAA Tournament, but they must win their first match at Madison Square Garden to feel comfortable.

Seton Hall responded with a 14-2 run before adding a separate 10-0 burst down the length of the second, giving Creighton a 26-15 advantage at the 8:21 mark of the first.

On 5/9 shooting from the floor, Ryan Kalkbrenner led the Bluejays with 17 points, eight rebounds, and 3 blocks, while Ryan Hawkins scored 17 points, seven boards, and two steals. Creighton’s shorthanded offense faltered mightily, shooting 38.9% from the floor and committing 14 turnovers.

The Bluejays are 16-14 against the spread and lost three straight matches, including a thrashing at the hands of No. 11 Providence.

The total went UNDER in 8 of Creighton’s last 12 matches.
The total went OVER in 8 of Creighton’s last 12 matches against Marquette.
Creighton is 7-2 SU in their last 9 matches in the Big East Conference.

Marquette Golden Eagles vs Creighton Bluejays. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Marquette Golden Eagles.

While Creighton had a solid season, the loss to starting point guard Nembhard came at an inopportune moment, and the offense struggled in the 3 matches following. That will make a major difference for Marquette today after the two regular-season matchups between these two teams came down to the wire, with the Golden Eagles’ better offense coming out on top.

To beat Marquette, you have to win the battle of the boards, but Creighton is simply an average rebounding club, with Kalkbrenner dominating the offensive boards.

Since Nembhard’s injury, Creighton averaged just over 0.9 points per possession, but it won’t be enough to upset a well-rounded Marquette squad. The Marquette Golden Eagles will win to a predicted score of 74-68.
