Result:
LOSS

Purdue has the offense clicking, winning two straight while scoring 97 and 83 points. That coincided with the return of 7-3 center Matt Haarms (12 points per game), who missed two straight due to a concussion. They have a balanced attack with three players in double-figures, while forward Trevion Williams (9.7 points, 7.1 rebounds) is averaging 14 points and 10.2 rebounds over his last five outings despite playing 24.2 minutes per game over that stretch. The Illini rank second in the country in rebound margin (+11.6). Purdue is 84-55 OVER the total when the total is 129.5 or less. They head to Big 10 rival Illinois for this one, averaging 97 points per game at home this season. And Illinois is 22-10 OVER the total at home after a conference game. Play the OVER.
