DePaul at Creighton

DePaul leads the conference in rebounding (39.1), with a fine frontcourt anchored by 6-6 Max Strus (17.1 points, 5.7 boards per contest) and senior center Marin Maric (13.9 ppg, 6.6 rpg). The Blue Demons are playing well, covering five of the last six, including Saturday's 70-62 victory over Marquette as a +3 dog. They face a Creighton squad off an 89-83 overtime comeback win over #5 Villanova. They are in a let-down spot, as it was a victory against the highest-ranked opponent in program history. The Blue Jays are 7-19 ATS following a straight-up win, plus 5-16 ATS after a spread cover. Creighton was a 7-point favorite against DePaul two weeks ago and had to squeeze out a 76-75 win. The rematch will be a dogfight, too. Play DePaul.
