A great battle of Big 10 powers. Purdue is a stellar 3-1 on the road, and the team's depth hasn't really been tested since Rapheal Davis returned from injury a month ago. Purdue defeated Ohio State 75-64 on Thursday as P.J. Thompson scored 10 of his 12 points in the final eight minutes to spark the victory. The Boilermakers are on a 36-16 spread run, including 10-2 ATS on the road. They are also 22-10 ATS in Big 10 play. These teams match up evenly as Purdue has size up front and great three-point shooting, similar to Iowa. Iowa won the first meeting, 70-63, three weeks ago, though the Boilermakers led by 19 late in the first half. The Hawkeyes are 3-7 ATS at home against a team with a road winning percentage of greater than .600. This shapes up as another close one, and the underdog is 6-2 ATS when they square off. Play Purdue.
