Betting on the Butler Bulldogs (ODDS)
Record: 11-12 Overall/3-9 Conference
Butler will look to arrest a four-game losing skid when the Bulldogs play Marquette this weekend. The Bulldogs are coming off a 70-49 home loss at the hands of the Seton Hall Pirates last Saturday. With several days of rest between their last game and this upcoming matchup versus Marquette, the Bulldogs at least should have a very fresh set of legs. The Bulldogs’ offense has been atrocious this season, but it could show some life against Marquette, which allows 70.6 points per game. Butler has some good wins this season, having beaten the likes of the Villanova Wildcats and the Kansas State Wildcats.
The Under is 3-1 in Butler’s last four games overall.
Betting on the Marquette Golden Eagles (ODDS)
Record: 18-5 Overall/10-2 Conference
Marquette isn’t just one of the best teams in the Big East; it’s also among the tops in the nation. Ranked eighth overall by KenPom and 14th by the Associated Press, the Golden Eagles are on a four-game win streak. In their last game, the Golden Eagles beat Villanova at home, 73-64. Key to the success of Marquette is its offense. The team is No. 1 in the nation with 121.5 points per 100 possessions adjusted and ninth with 82.2 points per outing. The Golden Eagles are also hitting nine 3-pointers per game on 35.5 percent accuracy from behind the arc.
Marquette is 9-1 against the spread in its last 10 games.
Writer’s Prediction
Marquette wins, 77-60.
