Buffalo Bulls at Creighton Bluejays Prediction
More often than not undefeated outfits ranked in the Top 10 are vulnerable to giving away more points than they should. Creighton is certainly susceptible to such an occurrence given their recent slew of victories. Nevertheless, despite owning one of America’s premiere offenses and the best three-point shooting team in the land, the Bluejays rank among the worst in offensive rebounds while posting medicore numbers in the free-throw and opponent three-ball percentage disciplines. Creighton is a team that lives and dies by draining treys from beyond the arc and given the amount of points on the table here this can be a dangerous venture against any opponent. Buffalo is strictly focused on their efforts in the defense and rebound departments. Buffalo ranks among the best in opponent field goal percentage (53rd) and they have proven to be one of the best in creating second chances as they are positioned 33rd nationally in offensive rebounds. The fact that Buffalo plays methodical defense and strong in the fundamentals allows them to match-up well with Creighton who is just a cold night away from being upset by a team that can take advantage of their deficiencies on the back-end. Don’t expect Buffalo to get rolled over in this contest by any stretch. This game will likely be a defensive-oriented battle which plays perfectly in to Buffalo's hands allowing them to keep this one within range.
