The Creighton Bluejays have been playing much better basketball as of recent as they have won 7 of their last 8 games while the TCU Horned Frogs have been inconsistent all season. Creighton has the ability to be a high-powered offense as they rank 45th in the nation in team scoring while TCU ranks 146th in scoring defense. TCU may have better individual players, but they only play 7 guys a game, and the surrounding cast of Creighton is much more suitable to win a tight game as they have a couple of go-to options. Creighton wins and covers, 80-75.
