Betting Prediction:
Marquette successfully bounced back from their humiliating loss to St. John with a 70-52 win over Xavier. The Golden Eagles were outstanding on defense, allowing Xavier to shoot just 31.5% of their shots from the floor and 7% from beyond the arc. Markus Howard led the team in scoring with 26 points in this one. He also added 8 assists and 4 rebounds. On the season, Marquette is averaging 78.5 ppg on 45.5% shooting from the field.
The Creighton Bluejays dropped to 10-5 after losing to Butler, 84-69. Butler started the game very well and they just used the early lead, in order to get the W. Creighton shot just 26% from beyond the arc while allowing Butler to shoot 50% from the field and 36.7% from three. On the season, Creighton is averaging 83.7 ppg on 51.6% shooting from the field.
Marquette is having a good season so far and the fans are really excited right now. The Golden Eagles are playing well at home but they are struggling away from home and they have 20+ losses in two of the 4 games they played on the road this year. Creighton is a tough side that certainly has what it takes to win the game.
