Losing Daniel Jones (2,674) passing yards will no doubt hurt an offense that put up (405.7) total yards per contest which ranked 66th in the BCS. The Blue Devils won just three Atlantic Coast Conference games in 2018 which concluded with an impressive 56-27 Independence Bowl victory over Temple. Quentin Harris is set to replace Jones under center and although he hasn’t developed as a passer, his ability to create with his legs is a weapon. However, head coach David Cutcliffe is an expert at developing quarterbacks. Harris reminds Cutcliffe of former Duke signal caller Thaddeus Lewis who was an NFL journeyman. Wide receiver Jake Bobo is the only experienced pass catcher but rushing attack returns leading rusher Deon Jackson (847.0) yards on the ground. Six returning offensive linemen with sixty-games of experience are back in the mix which should make Harris a bit more comfortable in the pocket.

On the other side of the football, eight starters return to a unit that allowed opponents (209.3) yards per game on the ground which was 107th in College Football. They let the opposition score (27.4) ppg which was a telling statistic; when the Blue Devils defense gave up 27 or fewer points, they went undefeated but 1-5 when allowing more than twenty-seven. Another asset for the Duke defense is the addition of cornerback Mark Gilbert who missed last season with an injury and looked good in spring practice. The defensive line returns all four starters from a year ago and has the best of both worlds with run stopper Derrick Tangelo along with pass rush specialist Victor Dimukeje. However, they have issues at linebacker with the loss of two tremendous tacklers who were smart and made plays from sideline to sideline. As the Duke football program is evolving, so is the schedule, and they’ll get tested right of the back on August 31st in Atlanta vs. Alabama. Three of their first four games are on the road which will be interesting for a first-year starting quarterback.

Prediction: Duke will go 5-7 this season.

2019 SMU Mustangs College Football Betting Preview.

 

Sonny Dyke enters his second season as head coach since coming over from the PAC-Twelve.

bookmakers again in 2019-20.

A 5-7 record for the first season isn’t bad unless you coach in the Lone Star State where expectations of winning in priority. Afterall Chad Morris ed the SMU football program to a bowl berth his finals season in 2017. Sonny Dykes took over after leading a record-setting offense at the University of California, but the unit put up an average of (387.2) ppg which ranked 81st in the FBS. Expectations surrounding the offensive production is the central question the fan base has with Ben Hicks transferring to Arkansas former Texas Longhorns signal-caller Shane Buechele should be the starter. Whoever opens the season under center will have the luxury of wideout James Proche (1,199) receiving yards last season. Notre Dame transfer CJ Sanders along with former West Virginia Mountaineer player Reggie Roberson should form on the of passing attacks in the American Athletic Conference. The nations 119th ranked rushing attack was dead last in the AAC but four lineman return on an offense that gave up plenty of sacks last season and a year experience will pay dividends in 2019. The top team of College Football handicappers at Charliessports.com believes the SMU Mustangs will put plenty of points on the scoreboard this season.

Second-year defensive coordinator Kevin Kane did an admirable job on a unit that couldn’t get of the field due to an inadequate offense. By the fourth quarter, the players couldn’t breathe. The runs defense allowed opponents (199.0) yards per contest which was 98th in the nation while the (35.2) ppg given up was 110th. The Mustangs were better than average against the pass, which is a plus in a conference that features plenty of high-powered offenses. Most of the pass rushers on the edges return, but they’ll be without three of their top four cornerbacks. The safety tandem of Patrick Nelson and Rodney Clemons return, and with all the talent at the prep level with secondary players, it shouldn’t be a problem. Also, the Mustangs would outscore most of their opponents in 2019. Oddsmakers in the Reno/Lake Tahoe area know something because SMU will be FAVORITES in six games this season. They begin the 2019 season against Arkansas State, North Texas and Texas State before a trip to face TCU in Fort Worth. Bovada.Lv list the SMU Mustangs win total at 7′ games for 2019.

Prediction: SMU will go 7-5 this season.

The (30-16). Minnesota Twins continue to make daily bettors profits, and if you wagered $100.00 each game, it would have grown into $1,400.00. They were riding a five-game winning streak until Sundays 7-4 loss to Seattle as 105 road UNDERDOGS which was the finale of a four-game set. Minnesota is 4′ games ahead of second place Cleveland in the AL Central as they embark on a three-game series in Southern California. They’re 15-8 at visiting ballparks in 2019 and 9-5 vs. AL West opponents and won two of the three in Minneapolis to the Angels.

The Twins have the second-ranked offense in Major League Baseball with Jorge Polanco (.343) batting average leading the way. Outfielder Eddie Rosario (13) homers had four, and two of his team-leading 35 RBI’S when the teams met earlier this season for three games. However, Byron Buxton is in a slump after a six-game hitting streak. Jake Odorizzi (6-2) with a 2.63 era will be on the hill for Minnesota. He sports a 4-0 record at home but has struggled on the road which can explain the betting line.

This MLB Handicapper has to go with Minnesota as a DOG tonight; it’s a role to take to the bank against an inconsistent Angels team.

Bovada.Lv list the Minnesota Twins win total at 84′ games for 2019.

 

The (22-24) Los Angeles Angels lost the finale of a three-game series against Kansas City 5-1 as 165 home FAVORITES. UNDER bettors have taken tickets to the window in five of the previous eight between the teams and the UNDER is 5-1-3 their last nine overall. Slugger Mike Trout leads the team with a .303 batting average with twenty-seven RBI’S.

Catcher Kevan Smith is on a five-game hitting streak and hit safely in three at-bats yesterday. The Angels are second in division 8′ games behind first-place Houston. It seems as though fans are seeing a glimpse of being competitive from a team that has underachieved in the past few seasons. Right-hander Taylor Cole (0-0) with a 4.91 era will be on the pitcher’s mound for the Angels tonight. The 27-year-old makes his first start in 2019; he’s made four appearances in relief with the Angels going 1-3 when he’s been on the hill.

The top team of Sports Handicappers can’t go with the Angels with a hurler who hasn’t made a start which makes out Twins wager even stronger.

The (17-25) Toronto Blue Jays lost the finale of a two-game Interleague set 4-3 as 135 road UNDERDOGS, and now they’ll take on a team they lost two of three against last weekend. Toronto has dropped eight of ten and st fourth in the AL East with showing little hope of competing with the elite Tampa Bay Rays, Boston Red Sox or the New York Yankees. They’ve scored 25-runs in their previous ten games which have been their Achilles heel this season which shows with a .219 team batting average, 26th in Major League Baseball. Shortstop Freddy Galvis is on a six-game hitting streak while Eric Sogard is hitting .320 but has played half the season.

Marcus Stroman (1-6) with a 3.20 era will be on the pitcher’s mound tonight. The right-hander lasted 6 1/3 innings his last appearance which was last week in a 7-2 loss a 150 home FAVORITES against tonight’s opponent.

The top MLB handicapper believes Stroman has to be careful pitching to White Sox slugger Jose Abreu who’s had success at the plate and Toronto is 2-6 Stroman’s previous eight vs. The White Sox.

Bovada.Lv list the Toronto Blue Jays win total at 74′ games for 2019.

The (19-22) Chicago White Sox were blanked 9-0 Tuesday as 190 home UNDERDOGS. UNDER bettors have taken tickets to the window in six of their last eight overall, but the OVER is 5-2-1 their last eight overall. The White Sox pitching staff that allows 5.14 runs per contest, 28th in Major League Baseball and will without Carlos Rondon and reliever Nate Jones for the remainder of 2019. Making matter worse is starter Manny Banuelos exited early in Tuesday loss with a shoulder strain. However, the good news is Tim Anderson .320 batting average is one of the premier players in the American League on a White Sox offense that ranks 9th overall with a .254 team batting average.

Right-hander Dylan Covey (0-2) with a 5.91 era gets the start tonight. He’s making his third start since being called up from the AAA farm club; not a good sign for a team that has lost four of their previous five at home.

This Sports Handicapper is on Toronto with Stroman having a strong performance tonight.

The (58-20) SU, (46-28-4) ATS Milwaukee Bucks beat Brooklyn 131-121 as 1′ point road UNDERDOGS ATS on Monday in the second game after the loss to Atlanta the night before. Tonight’s contest could be a preview of the 2019 Eastern Conference finals as both teams prepare for the postseason. Milwaukee has been playing all season consistently at both ends of the basketball court. Bettors should take note the Bucks are 10-2 AGAINST THE POINT SPREAD vs. — a team with a winning home record. Milwaukee leads the NBA with (117.9) points per contest, and they rank 10th in field goal plus 3 point percentage.

Since the All-Star break, they’ve won 6 of eleven SU on the road, and a lot is because they allow opponents (36.0%) shooting beyond the three-point line. The Bucks lost to Philadelphia in March shooting 16 of fifty beyond the arc while allowing Philadelphia to convert on 15 of thirty-two shots which is nearly (50.0%). Milwaukee lost to Boston in the opening round of the 2018 playoff and this season will be a failure if they don’t get a berth in either the Conference or NBA Finals. They should be alright with a few 76ers starters out of the lineup.

Bovada.Lv List, the Milwaukee Bucks, win total at 48 games for the 2018-19 season. (OVER bettors cashed in about three weeks ago)

The (49-29) SU, (36-42) ATS Philadelphia 76ers return home after a three-game trip in which they won one of three and lost to Atlanta 130-122 as 4′ point road FAVORITES ATS. Atlanta scored 42 first-quarter points as the teams combined for 80 in the opening period. JJ Redick scored a team-high thirty points converting 6 of thirteen from beyond the three-point line. OVER bettors have taken winning tickets to the window four of Philadelphia last five overall.

Leading scorer Joel Embiid (27.5) ppg along with Jimmy Butler is questionable for tonight’s contest, but bettors should be aware he’ll probably be out until the playoffs. The 76ers have won fifty games for the second consecutive season. However, they’re the goal of winning the Eastern and have the talent to meet expectations. Point Guard Ben Simmons and Embiid are the main, and for the city to celebrate the feat it’s up to the duo to play at the level they’re expected. This Sports Handicapper believes the 76ers are the best team in the East.

Bovada.Lv List the Philadelphia 76ers win total at 53′ games for the 2018-19 season. (It’s going to be close, UNDER bettors have the edge).

#23 Badgers invade wounded Nebraska in crucial matchup tonight.

The (14-6) SU, (11-9) ATS Wisconsin Badgers are looking to extend a three-game winning streak after 62-46 victory over Northwestern as 8 point home FAVORITES ATS.

After dropping three of their first four against conference foes, the Badgers are now back in the hunt for an NCAA Tournament bid. Wisconsin is fifth in the Big Ten Standings with a 6-3 conference record and broke into the top 25 nationally due in large part to their current stretch of wins.

• Wisconsin is 11-4 ATS their last fifteen on the road vs. Big Ten opponents.
• The UNDER is 4-2 the last six between the teams.
• UNDER bettors have made a profit in 23 of Wisconsin last 32 on the road.
• Wisconsin is 2-2 AGAINST THE SPREAD their last four on the road.

The (13-7) SU, (11-7-1) ATS Nebraska Cornhuskers are on the other end of the pendulum with hopes of breaking a three-game skid after their recent 70-60 loss to Ohio State as 7 point HOME FAVORITES ATS.

Nebraska is in the bottom half with a 3-6 Big Ten Conference record and a season of high expectations and NCAA Tournament hopes are slipping away.

• Nebraska has dropped their last 3 ATS at home vs. Big Ten opponents.
• The UNDER is is 3-1 Nebraska last four overall.
• The Cornhuskers are 8-1 AGAINST THE SPREAD their last ten on Tuesdays.
• Nebraska is 18-7-1 ATS their last 26 home games.

Tuesday’s game is 8:00 PM EST at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska. The Big Ten Network will be broadcasting.

The Betting Line has Wisconsin as 3′ point road UNDERDOGS ATS. The TOTAL is 129′ points for Tuesday’s contest.

 

Wisconsin Badgers head basketball coach Greg Gard is in his fourth season since taking over for the legendary Bo Ryan in Madison. After missing the NCAA tournament for the first time in his short tenure last season, they’re turning the corner.

A big part of the reason has been the production of 6-foot-10 senior center Ethan Happ(18.9) ppg who recorded the third triple-double in program history which was also the second of his career. The Milan, Illinois native is making a strong case for Big Ten player of the year. Gard understands tonight’s opponent is struggling and looking for a signature victory, and they’ll defend the three-point line well.

Wisconsin guards D’Mitrik Trice (14.2) ppg, and Brad Davison (10.7) have combined for 86 three pointers which rank both in the top five conference-wide. As usual, the Badgers play tight defense, allowing opponents (62.1) ppg on (39.9%) shooting from the field. With all the hype surrounding Happ who’s closing in on Michael Finley’s career scoring record, the Badgers had better come prepared for a battle tonight.

The sports Handicappers at Charliessports.com are 16-2 ATS going on or against Wisconsin the past two season’s, but tonight we have our FREE PLAY on this contest.

Bovada.Lv list Wisconsin at +12,000 to win the 2019 NCAA Tournament Championship.

 

 

Not since the 2013-14 season has the Nebraska Cornhuskers received an NCAA Tournament bid which was head coach Tim Miles second season at the football-crazed institute. Last year was the first postseason invitation if four years and it was the NIT where they were bounced in the opening round by Mississippi State.

Expectations of not only a March Madness appearance but competing for the Big Ten title were in reach this year, but it took a hit as Isaac Copeland (14.0) ppg went down with a season-ending torn ACL. Nebraska will be playing with plenty of emotion tonight in front of a capacity crowd, and leading scorer James Palmer (19.4) ppg is up for the challenge. The trio of Copeland, Palmer, along with fellow senior Glynn Watson wanted to do something special in their senior season.

The Cornhuskers still have a bevy of talent, but an underclassman must step to in the post taking up the slack for Copeland who was also a vocal leader. Miles has led the Cornhuskers to three of the last four SU wins between the teams, and he’ll need to do the best coaching of his career down the stretch as we near the final month of the season.

This Sports Handicapper understands the task at hand for Nebraska, and the line has moved from 1 to 3′ points which means public bettors are on the Cornhusker to play with emotion as we are also.

Bovada.Lv, list Nebraska at +35,000 to win the 2019 NCAA March Madness Championship.

The (13-6) SU, (12-7) ATS Baylor Bears are on a four-game winning streak after their 73-68 SEC/Big 12 Challenge victory over Alabama as 3′ point home FAVORITES ATS.

Baylor converted 44.8% from the field but allowed the Crimson Tide 51% as a point outscored the Bears in the second half. The Bears sit at 4-2 in the Big Twelve, a half-game behind Kansas and Kansas State.

• Baylor is 4-1 AGAINST THE SPREAD their last five at Oklahoma.
• OVER bettors have made a profit the Bears last eight vs. Big Twelve opponents.
• The Bears are 6-2 ATS their last eight on Monday’s.
• OVER bettors have cashed in 8 of Baylor last ten on the road.

The (15-5) SU, (15-3-2) ATS Oklahoma Sooners look to extend their winning streak to three after an 86-55 thrashing of Vanderbilt as 9 point home FAVORITES ATS in the clash between the SEC.

Christian James poured in a team-best 21 points as the Sooners dominated at both ends of the court. However, it could have been fools gold because Vanderbilt came off of an emotional overtime loss to number-one ranked Tennessee three days earlier.

• Oklahoma is 7-2 ATS their last eight at home.
• The UNDER is is 4-1 Oklahoma last five following a POINT SPREAD cover.
• The UNDER is 8-2 Oklahoma last ten vs. Big Twelve opposition.
• Oklahoma is 3-2 AGAINST THE SPREAD their previous five at home.

Monday’s game is 9:00 PM EST at Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, Oklahoma. The ESPNU Network will be broadcasting. The Betting Line has Oklahoma as 5′ point home FAVORITES ATS. The TOTAL is 139 points for Monday’s contest.

 

Former Mississippi State forward Mario Kegler played Alabama three times his freshman year while in the SEC and didn’t perform the way he’s capable in any of them. However he got a chance at redemption scoring a game-high seventeen points while Makai Mason contributed with thirteen. Mason is an intelligent player with four years of experience at Yale and as a graduate player provides leadership for head coach Scott Drew.

After shooting (29%) from beyond the three-point line the Bears shot (42%) the last three games which will force Oklahoma to defend. They were also the second team to out rebound Alabama this season with a 35-31 edge on the boards.

As is always the case if you’re going to get time in Drew’s rotation you must prove worthy on defense as the Bears are staunch allowing (64.5) points per game to opponents, 28th in the nation. The teams split a pair last season and tonight’s contest will be the first since Baylor took down Oklahoma in February of 2018.

This Sports Handicapper will look for a stellar defensive effort by the Bears, but it may not be enough in a hostile environment. The neutralizer is both teams were in action Saturday, but the Bears had to travel to Norman, Oklahoma.

Bovada.Lv list Baylor at +15,000 to win the 2019 NCAA Tournament Championship.

 

The Oklahoma Sooners no longer have current Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young to lean on for scoring after the prized freshman was the talk of College Basketball through the end of 2017. It didn’t matter as the Sooner finished 18-14 and a first-round exit from the 2018 NCAA March Madness Tournament.

Although senior guard Christian James (16.8 ppg with 7.3 RPG) contributed last year, he’s the team leader with expectations of taking the Sooners to another level in March. Head Coach Lon Kruger insists Jones will get his shot at a career on the basketball court either in the USA or abroad. Both teams mirror each other in the fact that everything begins on the defensive side of the court.

While Oklahoma (74.0) ppg put up more points than Baylor, they don’t quite match the Bears intensity of defense, but it’s close. The Sooners 62nd ranked defense allows the opposition (66.6) ppg. The Sooners are 2-2 at home in Conference play with a loss to Kansas State, and they’re scoring has dipped the last four game to (72.3) ppg.

The team of Handicappers aat Charliessports.com understands the line on this games looks off, Baylor getting 6 points seems to easy which is why our free play is going the other way. Look for Oklahoma to win by double digits down the stretch.

Miami Heat @ Cleveland Cavaliers, betting preview for Friday. January 25, 2019.

The (22-24) SU, (25-21) ATS Miami Heat have lost four of five including a 111-99 defeat by the Los Angeles Clippers as 5′ point home FAVORITES ATS.

Miami is 1/2 games behind first-place Charlotte in the Southeast division while holding on to the number eight seed in the Eastern Conference. Miami is still without All-Star point guard Goran Dragic who’s set to return in mid-February.

• Miami is 2-3 AGAINST THE SPREAD their last five on the road.
• UNDER bettors has made profit Miami last four after they allow opponents 100 points or more the previous game.
• The UNDER is 5-1 the last six between the teams in Cleveland.
• The UNDER is 4-1 Miami last five overall.

The (9-40) SU, (20-28-1) ATS Cleveland Cavaliers have dropped nine of ten including their most recent a 123-103 loss to Boston as 15 point road UNDERDOGS ATS. Cleveland is out of the playoff race with expectations of landing Duke university prized freshman Zion Williamson by winning the 2019 NBA Draft lottery in May.

They’ve gotten lucky with Lebron James, Kyrie Irving, and Andrew Wiggins who are no longer wearing a Cavaliers uniform.

• Cleveland is 0-3-1 ATS their last four after an SU loss.
• The OVER is 2-1 Cleveland last three at home.
• The Cavaliers are 2-7-1 AGAINST THE SPREAD their last ten at home.
• Cleveland is 6-3 ATS their last nine against Miami at home.

Friday’s game is 7:35 PM EST at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. The Local Network will be broadcasting.

The Betting Line has Cleveland as 8′ point home UNDERDOGS ATS. The TOTAL is 208 points for Friday’s contest.

Miami Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra knows he has an elite defense which will pay dividends as the season progresses. The Heat allows opponents (106.0) ppg, 5th in the league while the (46.6) rebounds per contest rank 8th league-wide. However, they’ve got issues scoring point, and the lack of offense stood out against the Clippers their last game.

Guard Josh Richardson (17.8) ppg is the leading scorer on a unit that produces (105.8) ppg of offense, and they thought that Dion Waiters could improve their numbers returning from an injury, but it hasn’t happened. The question surrounding the organization is, do they wait for Dragic to get healthy or make a trade before the deadline?

General Manager Pat Riley is known for pulling off deals that are beneficiary to the roster but since LeBron James left he’s been quite along the trade front. Fans in South Florida like to support winners, and with attendance down it’s surprising Miami hasn’t done anything to make a run at Boston, Toronto, Philadelphia or Milwaukee who are the front runner in the East.

This Sports Handicapper believes Miami will make wholesale changes in the coming month to compete at an elite level; it’s in Riley’s nature. It’ll be one series and done in the postseason with the current roster. They do however get the cover tonight against a pathetic Cavaliers team.

Bovada.Lv list the Miami Heat win total at 41′ games for 2018-19.

 

Owner Dan Gilbert gets credit for delivering on an NBA title when the beloved LeBron James decided to come back home. It was a good time around Northeast Ohio with restaurants and Pubs filled on game day.

However, it’s back to normal in Cleveland; you can go anywhere near the Arena without waiting to be seated and purchase premium tickets at bargain prices. Cleveland is 14′ games behind Miami for the final playoff spot which they have no intention of competing for even when Kevin Love (19.0) ppg returns in three weeks.

The Cavaliers 28th ranked offense produces (102.5) points per contest on(44.3%) shooting from the field. Point guard Jordan Clarkson (16.7) ppg the third highest scoring average for an NBA reserve this season. Rookie Point Guard Collin Sexton (14.6) ppg has shown flashes and head coach Larry Drew is going to turn the former Alabama Crimson Tide stand out into a great player. The (9.2) three point shots made per game ranks last in the NBA. What’s interesting about the Cleveland Cavaliers is that they’re not as bad on paper as they are on the basketball court. It shows how much LeBron James meant to the success of the organization.

The Winning NBA handicappers at Charliessports.com are 15-2 on Betting Predictions including Totals involving the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2018-19.

Indiana Pacers fans in attendance at Bakers Life field house witnessed a devastating knee injury to All-Star guard Victor Oladipo (19.2) points per game. With 4:05 minutes before halftime the Pacers promising season turned sour as Oladipo as usual made a hustle play to defend a Raptors fast break basket. In the aftermatch trainers were seen covering his knee. The Pacers gave Cleveland fits in the 2017-18 first round and with that experience they considered were d a contender for the Eastern Conference. It’s a reminder there’s no certainty in life, with Oladip in the lineup the Pacers win total went from 52 to 51′ according to Las Vegas Bookmakers.

In recent NBA history, TNT announcer Charles Barkley suffered the same injury but it happened the same season he was set to retire. Tony Parker bounced back and is now playing at an elite level in Charlotte.

It also brought back images of another Superstar who dawned a Pacers uniform, Paul George suffered a gruesome leg injury in Las Vegas during an offseason NBA sponsored event. George recovered but the Pacers who were contending with Miami for Eastern Conference supremacy in the LeBron James era in South Florida.

Center Myles Turner is now the main focal point of the franchise and more than that who knows what general manager Chad Buchanan plans are moving forward. Although Oladipo has an excellent offseason workout and conditioning schedule, the question will always remain will he still be the same player?

The Pacers went 0-6 with Oladipo out of the lineup in 2017-18, and 7-4 without their best player as he recovered from a sore right knee during November and December of 2018. In an ironic twist, Indiana acquired Oladipo from Oklahoma City who then got George in return. Drafted by Orlando the former Indiana University product had turned his entire career around in the same state he played College Basketball with Cody Zeller.

This Sports handicapper is rooting for a healthy recovery for one of the most engaging stars in the National Basketball Association. It’s an emotional situation that can fracture the confidence of a young basketball team.

However, McMillan will rally the troops and emphasize staying in the moment with maximum effort on each possession moving forward. Former NBA star Tracy McGrady mentioned on ESPN that he wouldn’t be ready for the 2020 season and the Pacers management will have to make some decisions. Are they going to keep the current roster intact or acquire draft picks for some of their core players?

One thing is for sure Myles Turner isn’t going anywhere. It didn’t take long for the news of the devastating injury to circulate NBA Arena’s reminding everyone who makes claims about professional athletes; they also face career-defining moments. Oladipo is set to make $21 million this season and will get paid but who knows if he’ll be able to meet expectations on the basketball court.

• OVER bettors have cashed in 16 of the Hoyas last twenty-one at home.

Monday’s game is at 8:30 PM EST at Capital One Arena in Washington, DC. The FS-1 Television Network will be broadcasting. The Betting Line has Creighton as 1′ point road UNDERDOGS ATS. The TOTAL is 165′ points for the contest.

 

Creighton head coach Greg McDermott will be without Damien Jefferson (9.4 ppg, 5.4 RPG) for six weeks which means he’ll probably miss the rest of 2019. The sophomore provided length and athleticism in the post. Creighton must play near flawless down the stretch of the season to improve their NCAA Tournament resume’ which must begin tonight in the nation’s capital.

There’s no doubt Creighton can score the basketball with the best in College Basketball. The Blue Jays average (83.5) points per game on (50.7%) shooting from the field while the (42.9%) from beyond the three-point line ranks 3rd in the NCAA Basketball landscape. However, as good as they are on offense they’re equally as lousy playing defense.

In a recent home loss to Villanova in which flaws were exposed the coaching staff knows they must improve their intensity on defense. Since joining the Big East expectations in Omaha are still the same, a berth in the March Madness tournament. For that to happen, they must change the trajectory on defense.

The talent is in place to make a run, even without Jefferson and it starts with point guard Ty-Shon Alexander tonight. Points shouldn’t be a problem tonight, but the Blue Jays must prevent Georgetown from taking high percentage shots.

 

Bovada.Lv, list the Creighton Blue Jays at +750 to win the 2019 Big East Conference Tournament.

Georgetown Hoyas head coach Patrick Ewing will attempt to regroup his team after a devastating home loss to Marquette who was without their star player Markus Howard for most of the contest.

After allowing St. John’s to leave the Capital One Center victorious at the beginning of the month tonight’s contest against a high scoring Creighton team could be pivotal.

Georgetown is 3-3 with hopes to end a three-game homestand with a win with three of their next four after tonight on the road. Senior Center Jessie Govan should have an extra incentive tonight after last season’s performances against Creighton; he failed to score in double figures in 2017-18, two were against Creighton. However, if the Blue Jays continue to allow opponents to score at will Govan should have a game to remember, especially with Jefferson out of the lineup.

The Hoyas all-freshman backcourt of James Akinjo and Mac McClung are going to be a great combination in the future but are enduring some growing pains. Akinjo who was affected by the length of Marquette last week also made some questionable passes in the final moments in the loss. Ewing can live with those mistakes only if the duo grows through the process.

The Hoyas haven’t beat Creighton since 2017 which was a 71-51 home victory. Georgetown must force the pace against a Creighton team that has issues on defense.

Bovada.Lv, list the Georgetown Hoyas at +1,400 to win the 2019 Big East Conference Crown.
