State's loss to Clemson went UNDER by 14.5 points and both teams are 11-5 UNDER their past 16 games against teams with .600 winning percentages. The Bluejays allow 42.2 percent shooting and 68.5 points per game and 31.9 in the first half. The Wolfpack allow 32.6 points before halftime and 70.8 for the game. N.C. State is 3-9 ATS its past 12 games after losing by at least 20 points and Creighton is 6-1 ATS after losing by that many and the Bluejays come off an 82-60 loss to Xavier that snapped a three-game win streak. Play Creighton on the moneyline, play the first half UNDER, and take the full game to stay UNDER as a Max Play.
