Purdue vs Ohio State -2 O/U 128.5
Purdue is 13-16-2 ATS and Ohio State is 19-12 ATS
Ohio State beat this team 68-52 at home this year
- Purdue is the worst shooting team in the big 10 ranking last in effective FG% luckily they are the best offensive rebounding team
- Purdue might be the most desperate team in the Big 10
- This team will go as far as Travion Williams will take them and if they had decent guard play, they might be a top 3 big 10 team.
- Jahaad Proctor and Eric Hunter need to step up here if they want to make the tournament.
- Ohio State is the more complete team but they have some injury woes with Kyle Young out and DJ Carton suspended for academics
- Ohio State is a little overrated in my opinion and their defense only ranks 10th in efficiency in the big 10.
- Neither team is good on the road with Ohio State shooting 40% and Purdue at 37%
- Purdue is the more desperate team trying to make the big dace
- I have this game a pick-em at 62-62.

Michigan vs Rutgers +2.5 O/U 135
- Michigan handled this team twice already and neither time was at home. One was even at Madison square garden. Isaiah Livers didn’t play either time.
- Michigan finished the season poorly losing 3 of their last 4 games and Rutgers won their last 2 games against Maryland and at Purdue.
- Since February 1st Rutgers only ranks 47th in efficiency on Bart Torvik and Michigan ranks 9th.
- The Wolverine’s shoot a very good 45% on the road and Rutgers a very Modest 42%
- Both of these teams allow an average of 70 points per game on the road
- Rutgers home road splits this year were pretty brutal in the big 10 and until their last game with Purdue, they could not beat anyone on the road not named Nebraska.
- Being that Rutgers hasn’t made the NCAA tournament since 1991, and now that they are in, I have to think that Michigan wants this more.
- I have Michigan winning this game 72-66
