Creighton 91, Loyola-Chicago 68
Moneyline
PASS.
You should avoid betting Creighton (-4000) because the odds are outrageous. Just look to the spread and total if you want to make a bet.
Against the spread
BET CREIGHTON -18.5 (-110).
This is a really good team and even facing a better-than-average defensive- minded squad isn't going to slow down this train. Loyola-Chicago will be overmatched in all facets of the game.
Creighton has won every game this season by an average of 30 points per game. They have covered in 3 of their 4 games.

Over/Under
PASS.
My lean is to the Over but not enough to put a bet down on it. Even as high scoring as Creighton is, they have only gone over in 2 of their 4 games. Loyola has been Under in 3 of their 4 games. There is too much uncertainty, so I'd rather just stay away.
