Premium Pick

North Carolina State is undefeated, but they haven't played anybody. This team topped Georgia Southern by a basket as a 14-point favorite, then North Carolina State trailed by two at halftime against Montana as -9 chalk on Friday before rallying. The Wolfpack topped Montana without swingman Maverick Rowan (concussion) and forward Ted Kapita (visa issues). North Carolina State is 9-of-45 (20 percent) beyond the arc this season. Creighton is also unbeaten, and more impressive. They topped Wisconsin as a dog, 79-67, and made a major statement in the opening round of the Paradise Jam, routing Washington State, 103-77. Cole Huff scored 19 points and Marcus Foster added 16 in the one-sided affair. The Bluejays are averaging 90.3 points and shot 56.3 percent (15-of-27) beyond the arc in Friday's blowout. Eight different Creighton players have made a three-pointer this season, with all eight of them shooting at least 40 percent from long range. Play Creighton on the moneyline.
