This is a huge Big-10 game with Purdue and Indiana tied with 10-7 conference marks, which means home court is going to be a significant edge in this finale. The fifth seed in next week's Big Ten tournament will go to the winner, while the loser will have the No. 6 seed. Purdue is just 5-4 on the road. It is senior day at Assembly Hall as Indiana will honor Verdell Jones III, Tom Pritchard, Matt Roth, Daniel Moore and Kory Barnett. The Hoosiers are 17-1 at home this season, with victories over Kentucky, Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State for Coach Tom Crean. The Hoosiers are 4-1 ATS in their last five home games. In Purdue's past three games - wins over Nebraska, Michigan and Penn State, the Boilers have shot 53.8% from the field, 51.7% from 3-point range, and nearly 80% from the free throw line. Those numbers are quite different from the first time Indiana and Purdue played; the Boilermakers shot 29.6% from the field and 23.8% on threes on Feb. 4, a 78-61 Indiana rout. In that game Purdue was 8-of-40 from the field in the first half. The Boilermakers are also 2-5 ATS in the last seven meetings in Indiana. Play Indiana!
