Milwaukee at Purdue picks and predictions
Prediction
Purdue 85, Milwaukee 56
Moneyline
PASS.
Purdue (-10000) will win, but the price is way too high and not worth the risk.
Against the spread
BET PURDUE -25.5 (-112).
Purdue was 16-1 on its home court last season. This team is looking to not just get back to the NCAA Tournament, but is looking for a deep run. The run starts Tuesday with a convincing victory over the Milwaukee Panthers. PURDUE -25.5 (-112) is my favorite play in this game.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 145.5 (-110).
I am not worried about Purdue scoring in this game. I am worried about the number of points they might give to Milwaukee. This game reminds me a lot of the Houston vs. Northern Colorado game from Monday. A game in which Houston got out early and suffocated its opponent 85-36. The same thing could happen here. So, I will lean toward the UNDER 144.5 (-110).
