Advantages Why Creighton can win
- Season-long ratings: betting lines have rated Creighton about 8.2 points stronger over recent games.
- Home court: Creighton play at home, worth about 3 points in college basketball, more than in the NBA.
- Strength of schedule: Creighton 53rd (+1.8), Le Moyne 341st (-1.7) of 365.
- Ball security (turnovers per 100 possessions): Creighton 153rd (16.3), Le Moyne 328th (19.2) of 365.
- Team matchup: no unit-against-unit mismatch clearly favors Creighton. The nearest thing to one: their ball pressure (331st of 365) meets the Le Moyne ball security (328th), close to even, so this is more about execution than one area to exploit.
- Star matchup: no key position clearly favors Creighton. The closest: at guard, Ametri Moss (Le Moyne: 7.5 pts, 5.0 reb, 4.5 ast, Game Score 9.8) is about even with Josh Dix (Creighton: 13.2 pts, 3.7 reb, 2.3 ast, Game Score 9.7).
- Simulation: Creighton win 4,555 of 5,000 simulated games.
Disadvantages Why Creighton may not
- Getting to the line (free throws per shot): Le Moyne 90th (0.28), Creighton 296th (0.22) of 365.
- Weak spot: Creighton rank 331st of 365 in turnovers forced per 100 possessions (14.2).
- Weak spot: Creighton rank 296th of 365 in offensive rebounding (share of misses) (26.9%).
- Weak spot: Creighton rank 296th of 365 in getting to the line (free throws per shot) (0.22).
- Team matchup: a strength Creighton may not get to use. Their shooting efficiency (109th of 365) meets the Le Moyne shooting defense (92nd), one of the better units at stopping it, which can take away their plan to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
- Star matchup: Best player against best player, Shilo Jackson (Le Moyne: 15.8 pts, 8.0 reb, 2.1 ast, Game Score 13.7) has the edge on Jasen Green (Creighton: 10.3 pts, 6.2 reb, 2.4 ast, Game Score 10.0).
- Upset odds: Le Moyne win 445 of 5,000 simulations (9%). A 91% pick still loses about 1 time in 10.
