IUPUI at Creighton

Creighton likes to run, but they can play defense, too, and are coming off a win over state rival Nebraska where they allowed 67 points. The Bluejays stepped up the defensive effort, holding the Cornhuskers to less than 40 percent from the field and eight points below their season average. They host an Indiana-Purdue squad on a 5-3 run UNDER the total, scoring 53, 58 and 74 points in three of the last four contests (all losses). Darrell Combs is the Jaguars' leader on offense, but he only makes 39.8 percent of his attempts. This team fades often in the second half with a lack of depth, so they will have to slow the pace down. Indiana-Purdue is 5-1 UNDER the total on the road against a team with a winning home record, plus 9-2 UNDER when they face a team with a winning percentage above .600. This one stays UNDER the total.
