Tony George of www.tonygeorgesports.com has your free pick for Friday's Rhode Island vs. Creighton game.
Rhode Island +1 vs Creighton *4:30 EST
Riding a hot team here in Rhode Island, winners of 8 in a row (12-2 last 14) and won the A-10 Tourney who has 3 teams in the big dance. Creighton problematic outside of 2 players to score, and without Watson they are half the team they were first half of the season. Struggled to win the Big East Tourney badly against mighty Nova and got smacked around, faded in all 3 games in the first half in that tourney and always dug a hole, and did so against Nova and it cost them.
Small upset here in many eyes, not mine, Rhode Island well coached and can put up points. Creighton just 7-8 SU in last 15 games. Creighton has issues closing out games, they have all year. RI has issues at free throw line at 63% but I still lean with them here in a live dog scenario
Play 1 Unit on Rhode Island
