Creighton at Nebraska

Nebraska faltered down the stretch and lost at Minnesota on Wednesday, but the Cornhuskers might have been looking ahead to this game as they try to defeat Creighton for the first time in eight years. The Huskers did manage to cover in last year's meeting as a 12-point underdog and this year's team is stronger and Creighton comes off a 103-92 loss to Gonzaga and hasn't played since last Saturday. Nebraska has been playing great defense holding opponents to a .370 field goal percentage and 57.9 points per game, but it was victimized by the Golden Gophers' inside game on Thursday.  Isaac Copeland Jr. led the Huskers with 17 points and Isaiah Roby added 15 and Nebraska made nine fewer free throws. Nebraska is 24-6-1 ATS its last 31 games overall and 18-7-1 ATS its last 26 home games and 8-2-1 ATS its last 11 following a loss. Lay the points with Nebraska.
