Our Auburn vs Creighton Prediction
This seems to be a fishy line as Auburn is nearly a double-digit favorite. While they could absolutely cover this number, we have also seen Auburn struggle recently as they have lost 3 of their last 5 games overall. Therefore, instead of looking at the spread, we will look at the total, more specifically the over.
To the point of the over, Creighton flashed their three-point shooting ability in their first-round game and will likely need to do it again to keep pace with Auburn in this second-round matchup. Meanwhile, while Auburn started their first-round game slowly, they ended up hitting their scoring average of 83 points.
This game has the makings of a back and forth contest, played at a very fast pace. Further, both teams love to shoot the three and make them at a high rate. Because of this, our Creighton Bluejays vs Auburn Tigers prediction is over 151.5.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
