Georgetown vs Marquette Prediction

In this Georgetown vs Marquette Prediction, Marquette is coming as -3.5 home favorites. Georgetown has been the better team this season, as they have a better overall record but both teams have been terrible against the spread this season, with a 8-2 record each. They are both also coming into this matchup in bad form, as they are 2-5 and 2-3 in their last 7 and 5 games respectively, so I see no value on either side. Taking a look at the total, both teams are 8-3 to the over in their last 11 games combined, as they average 157.1 points per game combined offensively. I expect another high-scoring affair, so take the over 148.5 points in this one.
