Colgate Red Raiders vs Marquette Golden Eagles Point Spread Picks

Colgate got stomped by Illinois in its opener, a 20-point loss, and now plays at Marquette of the Big East. They shot 39%, trailed 43-25 at the half and got beat on the glass 46-31.

Guard Vander Blue and post players Chris Otule and Davante Gardner are solid along with Trent Lockett, a transfer from Arizona State. The Golden Eagles were 27-8 last year and fell to Florida in the NCAA tournament's round of 16 last season. The Golden Eagles are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall, plus 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games. Play Marquette.
