Can the Jays win against a good opponent without shooting well? That remains to be seen, but this isn’t the game where you want to test that hypothesis. Hopefully the offense flows and the shots fall in front of the home crowd.

No betting lines out yet, that I can see. But here's an interesting article with some good data on Alabama. If you don't want to click it, a computer predicts an 80-79 Creighton win. Why play the game? Let's take that and move on to conference play.

Same here. Be interested to see how the line moves over the next 12 hours or so.

Vegas seems to like our team more than most of the fan base right now

Vegas expected our team to beat UNLV by 13-15 points, too …

Yeah, sure, but they likely realize that pretty much EVERY TEAM has multiple awful games a year, and that this game wasn't out of sorts for any of the teams we've had in the past 5 years, including the 19-20 and 20-21 teams.

Or sometimes Vegas just gets it wrong.

I hope they get this one right.
