    Purdue -5 seems like a gift

    Purdue has been playing excellent basketball lately. Not only that, the only road games they have lost this season are all to NCAA tourney teams besides Minny (Nolen was healthy for that game though, with Nolen, Minny is a tourney team).

    I don't see anyway Purdue loses this game. It's still a Rivalry game (even though Indiana sucks) and they will be focused. They're trying to snatch up a 2 seed for the tournament.

    2 other things to consider

    1- Purdues best 2 players are seniors (less possibilty of a letdown).
    2- Kenpom has Purdue winning by 8.

    I left off...Accuscore has it a 2.5 pt difference. FWIW

    Though if I was going to bet I'd definitely lean Purdue

    First of all if I were to bet, it'd DEF be Purdue. But that link shows how big of a rivalry game this is to Indiana...if they lose every game in a year, its almost ok to them as long as they beat Purdue hah. I think Purdue takes care of business, but this information makes me lean away from the game totaly ...can't get images of Kansas @ KState out of my head.............

    Local radio seems to think the game will be close but the purdue seniors won't lose their last game to indiana.
