Purdue wraps up the regular season off an emotional week. The Boilermakers clinched their first outright Big Ten title since 1995-96 after Tuesday's win versus Indiana. They head out on the road to face a Northwestern defense that is second to Wisconsin in the Big 10 in points allowed, tops in field goal defense, and second in free throw shooting (74.8%). The Wildcats appear to have clinched their first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance on a last-second layup by Dererk Pardon to beat Michigan on Wednesday, a 67-65 win as a +2 dog. Northwestern is on a 21-10 spread run, including 13-6 ATS against winning teams. It's also a revenge spot, with Northwestern suffering its worst loss of the season at Purdue on February 1st. Play Northwestern.
