Florida A&M at Creighton picks and predictions
Prediction
Creighton 81, Florida A&M 56
Moneyline
No value here if you can even find a line. PASS.
Against the spread
Creighton is 2-9-1 ATS over its last 12 November games. FAMU is 4-1 across its last 5 games when lined as an underdog of 20-plus points.
Last season, the Rattlers played the likes of Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Miami, and Purdue. Four of those meetings were ATS wins (2 were by double-digit margins).
Playing a slow-tempo brand of ball, look for Florida A&M to rebound and defend just well enough to cash here with a big cushion with which to work. Figure some freshman playing time and coach Greg McDermott's early-season style being factors that hold back the Bluejays unless they have a big night from beyond the arc.
BACK THE RATTLERS +32.5 (-110).

Over/Under
This one likely gets a moderate-to-slightly-slow pace. But Creighton will be dominant in stretches and get its points. The Over has a sliver of a lean -- its not enough to warrant an account login.
PASS.
