Purdue Boilermakers -4 vs. Northwestern Wildcats
PLAY: 2* Purdue Boilermakers -4
Purdue takes to the Big 10 road for a conference battle against the host Northwestern Wildcats at Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston Illinois on Thursday night. Purdue enters tonight’s matchup with a 1-2 conference record while the Wildcats are still looking for their first conference win of the 2008-09 campaign.
Purdue opened their conference campaign losing in overtime at home to Illinois as an 8-point home favorite 71 to 67. The Boilers followed that loss by losing a close game at Big 10 rival Penn State 67 to 64 as a 2.5 point road favorite. In that game they were without two of their key starters in second leading scorer forward Robbie Hummel and guard Chris Kramer. Both returned in their last game which was a win over Wisconsin on Sunday, Hummel had 16 points, 2 assists and 5 rebounds in twenty-eight minutes of action. Kramer scored 4 points and had a rebound in twenty-one minutes against the Badgers.
To say the Wildcats have struggled in Big 10 action would certainly be an understatement. They opened Big 10 play at Penn State and lost 61 to 57 as a 2 point road underdog which wasn’t a terrible loss but they went downhill after that. They hosted Michigan State and lost 77 to 66 as a 4.5 point home underdog.
The Wildcats last played on Jan 7 as they hosted Big 10 foe Wisconsin and proceeded to go 16 of 51 from the floor for 31.4 percent shooting and lost 74 to 45. In that game they used 10 players off their bench and the contributions were negligible at best. They have failed to show any improvement over their last few games and the road will not be any easier tonight against a solid Purdue team.
Purdue should be able to control the pace of tonight’s contest and they have an offensive efficiency rating of 107.0 compared to the Wildcats 104.6. The Boilermakers are 6 in the nation in defensive efficiency holding opponents to a rating of 84.0 per game.
The Boilermakers average 72.2 points per game on the road this season versus teams that allow 65.4 points per game. Purdue is allowing 63.0 points per game versus teams that would normally average 66.9 points per game. The Boilermakers are shooting 45.8 percent from the field and holding their opponents to 36.2 percent shooting while on the road.
The Wildcats are only averaging 56.0 points per game when facing conference opponents and they are allowing 70.7 points per game. Wildcat opponents are shooting better than 42 percent from the field while the Cats have only managed 38.9 percent shooting.
On the technical front we see that Purdue has responded well on the road after defeating a conference rival as they are 6-0 ATS in that role the last two seasons. The Boilermakers are 44-29 ATS overall the last three seasons and 15-6 ATS when facing conference opponents. The Wildcats are 0-6 ATS at home off a loss of 10 or more points to a conference rival. They are 1-9 ATS at home versus conference foes and 1-8 ATS at home as an underdog.
With significant fundamental, technical and situational support we will back the visitor here as the Boilermakers get the win and cover over a Wildcat team that remains winless in conference play.
PROJECTED FINAL SCORE: (2*) Purdue 67 Northwestern 59
