Creighton at Alabama
(NCAAB) Bluejays (CREI) vs. Crimson Tide (ALA),
Total: 163.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
There's a high "total" tonight in Tuscaloosa but Bama's involvement justifies the price. That's because the Tide is scoring nearly 90 ppg as Nate Oats has all sorts of weaponry at his disposal, and is just learning how to use best 6-11 Rutgers transfer Clifford Omoruyi, who has already made his presence felt on defense. A recent development to note is sr. G Mark "Jalen Brunson of the SEC" Sears, who seemed to be undershooting expectations in the first three weeks of the season but now having scored 20 or more in three of this last four games. Creighton has already played a rugged slate and has dealt with injury issues, most-recently Texas Tech wing Pop Isaacs (16.3 ppg) now out for the season. But ASU transfer wing Jamiya Neal (scored 21 vs. Notre Dame and 19 vs UNLV within the past two weeks) looks to be filling in some of that scoring gap. Play Creighton-Alabama "Over"
