Premium Pick

Two Top-25 teams match up in one of the better games of the day here and neither has lost this season. Purdue comes off a 79-58 annihilation of Davidson on Friday, and it went UNDER by 10 points. The Boilermakers are holding opponents to 42.3 percent shooting, and the Hokies also have been effective on the defensive end with a .441 opponent field goal percentage. Virginia Tech stayed UNDER its first two games before beating Northeastern, 88-60.  The Hokies shot 58.1 percent overall and 51.9 percent from 3-point range, which is something that is not likely to be repeated in this one. The UNDER is 11-2 in Virginia Tech's last 13 games overall dating to last season, and the UNDER is 12-4 in Purdue's last 16 games versus ACC schools. Also, the Hokies have gone UNDER seven of their last eight against teams with .600 or better winning percentages. Take the UNDER.
