Free Pick on Butler +
These two teams met back in Butler on 1/16 and the Bulldogs erased a 18-point halftime deficit in a 88-80 win and cover as a 7.5-point favorite. I think most are going to jump on Marquette here, expecting they will get their revenge at home and a lot of those same people remember them recently winning at home over Villanova. I just don't think that's going to be the case. The Golden Flashes are an average team and more than anything, I believe they are catching Butler at the wrong time.
The Bulldogs are going to be all business here, as they look to snap a 2-game losing streak, where they dropped games at home against Georgetown as a 8.5-point favorite and Creighton as a 7-point favorite. That is also playing into this line, as Butler should be favored here. The Bulldogs are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 with a line of +3 to -3 and 7-1-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a SU loss. Marquette is 7-15 ATS in their last 22 as a home favorite and 3-13 ATS in their last 16 home games after playing their previous game on the road. Take Butler!
