The Musketeers made it another week with their ATS-streak intact. Same goes for the Air Force, which had beaten the spread in all of their last six games. Though not as hot as Xavier in spread coverage performance, Kansas State is not far behind in that category. In the totals, the Bulldogs and Bluejays maintain solid records in their recent games.

Trend: 9-0 ATS in last 9 games
Next Game: @ Providence Friars – January 25 | 12:00 PM ET
No longer is the Big East conference about Creighton and Villanova. The Musketeers (15-4 SU) are creeping up in the standings. They showed they could compete with the best in the conference when the Musketeers only lost by six points to Creighton (L 89-95) on January 12 – Xavier’s only loss in conference play yet. After that loss, Xavier won two straight. Xavier is one of the hottest teams in the NCAA right now, going 10-1 SU in their last 11 games. Even better is their nine-game streak against the spread.
Kansas State Wildcats
Trend: 9-1 ATS in last 10
Next Game: @ Iowa State Cyclones – January 25 | 1:45 PM ET
The Wildcats were smoked by a buzzer-beating 3-pointer in their last game against Texas to suffer a 67-64 loss – their second in three games. Kansas State was a 5.5-point underdog in that game. The game-clinching 3-pointer by Longhorn Jonathan Holmes was a prayer answered for Wildcats spread-bettors, who could have lost their bets in overtime. With the win and cover, the Wildcats improve to 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games.
Air Force Falcons
Trend: 6-0 ATS in last 6
Next Game: vs. Wyoming Cowboys – January 22 | 9:05 PM ET
Out of the Falcons’ eight defeats overall, six were by only eight points or less, which means that they are making it hard for opponents to get a win off them. This includes their January 12th 79-72 loss to #13 San Diego State as 10.5 underdogs. Though flying low in the Mountain West conference standings, Air Force is 6-0 ATS in their last six games, the best in the conference over that stretch.
Georgia Bulldogs
Trend: 5-0 UNDER in last 5
Next Game: vs. South Carolina Gamecocks – January 22 | 8:00 PM ET
The Bulldogs have an offense that only produces 69.6 PPG but improvements on their defensive game is compensating for Georgia’s lack of scoring punch. Georgia’s combination of anemic offense and inspired defense is a perfect recipe for Under bettors. The Bulldogs are 5-0 Under in their last five games overall.
Creighton Bluejays
Trend: 4-0 OVER in last 4
Next Game: vs. Georgetown Hoyas– January 25 | 8:02 PM ET
Forward Ethan Wragge’s hands could still be in the process of cooling down after sinking a record-setting nine 3-pointers in Creighton’s 96-68 win over #4 Villanova last Monday. The Bluejays also set a new Big East record in that game with 21 total 3-pointers. Creighton is averaging 11.3 3-pointers in its last 10 games and despite that figure being skewed by the Bluejays’ eruption against the Wildcats, it makes the team’s 49.8% clip from the field become even more impressive.
