OddsChecker: Take Princeton with the points vs. Creighton

It writes: "Yale is the only team that was able to beat Princeton by double digits this year, and did so twice. They did so by shooting lights out from three, 53.8%, and getting to the line, 47 free throws. Creighton is 99th in 3 point percentage and 259th in free throw attempts per game. Not exactly the tools to dominate Princeton. So, while this feels like the end of the road for Princeton, it would certainly be a shock to see them dominated."

Sports Chat Place: Go with Princeton with the points vs. Creighton

Randy Chambers writes: "The Creighton Bluejays are the better, more talented team and should be favored and should advance. Creighton has great balance, experience, and was considered a title contender before the season started. This run should surprise nobody. With that said, Princeton continues to win and cover numbers despite not getting much national attention. In fact, since January 7, Princeton is 6-1 SU and ATS in the underdog role. That’s putting money in your pockets, folks. I’ll ride the trend of the team that loves being underdogs. Give me Princeton."

ESPN: Creighton 76, Princeton 65

Jeff Borzello writes: "Creighton's season has come full circle. The Bluejays entered it as a top-10 team picked to win the Big East. Then they lost six in a row in November and December and sat at 9-8 in mid-January. Suddenly, they're a win over 15-seed Princeton away from playing for a trip to the Final Four. And I think they'll get that chance. Greg McDermott's team has five legitimate offensive weapons who can all go for 25 or 30 points, and it had the best defense in the Big East. Princeton has looked incredible for two games, but Creighton will prove too tough."
