Illinois at Purdue

Illinois QBs Luke Altmyer and John Paddock have combined for 5 TDs and 7 interceptions. The offense is 83rd in the nation in points scored (22 per game) and 55th on third down (41.30%). Illinois is on a 19-8 run UNDER the total, 12-2 UNDER as a dog, and 48-30 UNDER on natural grass. Purdue's offense is 72nd in the country in points scored (24.3 per game) and 57th on third down (41.07%). QB Hudson Card has thrown 3 TDs and picks. When they last met on this field two years ago it was a 13-9 final and this looks like another defensive duel. It's a pair of Big 10 teams that have big offensive weaknesses. Take Illinois/Purdue UNDER the total.
