Houston Christian at Creighton odds, picks and predictions

The Houston Christian Huskies (1-1) and no. 13 Creighton Bluejays (2-0) meet Wednesday at CHI Health Center Omaha. Tip-off is scheduled for 9:00 PM ET (FS1). Let’s take a look at FanDuel Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around Houston Christian vs. Creighton oddsand become our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Huskies opened with a win over Avila College, a low-ranked team, before falling 90-59 to Texas, covering as a 33.5-point underdog while the Under (150) cashed in. HCU was a respectable 33.3 percent (10-of-30) from behind the 3-point line against the Longhorns while turning it over just 15 times.

The Bluejays put up big offensive totals, averaging 97.5 points per game (PPG) in 2 wins over the Texas-Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros and Fairleigh-Dickinson Knights, though Creighton was unable to cover either of those games as the favorite to 29- plus points. The Over-Under split in those 2 outings, picking up big after allowing 86 runs to the Vaqueros.

Moneyline

There was no money line at press time, but it wouldn’t be worth watching even if one is released before tipoff.

Against the spread

Back HOUSTON CHRISTIAN +35.5 (-104) capturing the big number in the second straight game against a ranked opponent on the road.

The Huskies caught a similar number in Austin against the ‘Horns, hanging on the cover. Creighton -35.5 (-118) has an average margin of victory at 19.5 PPG, not even close to covering in either of their first 2 outings.

Over/Under

UNDER 159.5 (-115) easily worth playing in Omaha.

Under has picked up in Houston Christian’s only game with a total against Texas thus far. The Over-Under split into 2 outings for Creighton. The Bluejays defense has struggled a bit, and that’s the concern here, so be careful and make a half-unit play at most.
