The last time Purdue took the field their offense was clicking on all cylinders. Aidan O'Connell struck for 391 yards through the air while Devin Mockobee piled up 178 of the Boilermakers’ 217 yards en route to a 43-37 victory over Nebraska. But the defense allowed 37 points and prevented those who backed Purdue as 14-point home chalk from grabbing the cash.
Wisconsin came off of a 42-7 blowout of Northwestern entering last week’s contest with Michigan State but there was no carryover effect as the Badgers dropped a 38-24 decision in double overtime as seven-point road favorites.
Wisconsin has absolutely owned this rivalry, having defeated Purdue in their last 10 meetings and covering the spread in seven of those contests. Therefore, it’s not much of a surprise that the oddsmakers have installed them as 2 ½ point home favorites despite the Badgers’ 3-4 straight-up and ATS record. There are some trends you shouldn’t buck and this is one of them. Lay the small number with Wisconsin.
