Rutgers vs Purdue on 01/02 by horseracingfans

For my pick today, we’re going to go to the Mackey Arena in a matchup between the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and the top-ranked Purdue Boilermakers. This is all too familiar territory for both of these teams, folks. If you recall, December 2021, a season ago, Purdue was ranked No. 1 for the first time when they traveled to Rutgers and as a 13.5-point underdog, the Scarlet Knights bested the Boilermakers, 70-68. Now normally I would tell you Purdue would be in a big revenge mode here this season.
