This is a 10* ASSASSIN on Marquette.
REASONING: While we won't be so bold as to predict an outright upset, we do definitely feel that revenge minded home side can take this one down to the wire. Villanova comes in off a fifth straight win in a 78-68 win over Providence on Saturday, while Marquette won for a third time in four games in a 102-94 upset over No. 7 Creighton on the road. Suffice it to say, we're expecting the Golden Eagles to carry over that momentum here. In fact, Marquette has dropped nine straight in this series, including the 93-81 road loss back on January 7th. The Wildcats are ranked 68th in the nation in scoring with 78.6 PPG, while ranked 13th in scoring defense in allowing 62 PPG. The Golden Eagles are ranked 18th in the country in scoring with 84.6 PPG, while not nearly as good on the defensive end in allowing 74.1 per contest. Note that Villanova is just 1-2 ATS in its last three after holding its opponent to 68 points or less, while Marquette is 2-1 ATS off a win against a conference rival this season. Grab the points, play on MARQUETTE.
