The Purdue Boilermakers have to make use of every minute of every game as they fight for their NCAA Tournament lives as a bubble team. Purdue is 20-11, but has lost two of their last three and if that goes to three of four they could be in trouble. The Purdue offense has scored 68 or less points in 9 of their last 10, but the defense has picked up the slack allowing 70 or more just twice in their last 13 games. Penn State spent the bulk of their last 10 games in the 30s, 40s, and 50s on the offensive end, and have certainly proven vulnerable offensively to a focused defense, which no doubt Purdue will bring to this one. The Nittany Lions have been getting defensive themselves following a spread win where they are 7-1 to the UNDER in their last eight. Purdue stands at 14-5 to the UNDER in their last 19 conference tilts. The UNDER gets the call in this one.
