UC Riverside Highlanders vs #10 Creighton Bluejays. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #10 Creighton Bluejays. It makes sense that Creighton is the 18-point favorite in this matchup.

The Bluejays are undoubtedly one of the best teams in the nation, even though the Highlanders gave a strong performance in their victory over Loyola Marymount.
