Creighton vs. UConn CBB Prediction:
Creighton looks to win their fifth straight, while UConn is in search of their sixth straight victory.
Take the over. Both teams can score the basketball averaging over 80 ppg. Neither team is very quick in terms of pace, however both clubs are efficient. Creighton and UConn rank in the top 25 in terms of field goal %. I expect this game to be close, which should lead to fouling at the end to help push this game over the total. Give me the over.
