Las Vegas - Back in the Windy City for an early afternoon matchup between Purdue and Rutgers. The Boilermakers KILLED it early, opening up the season on a spectacular 13-0 run. After losing to Rutgers, the Boilers ripped off nine straight, and were 22-1 starting the month of February. They've gone 4-4 since that point, but roll into ChiTown with wins over Illinois and Wisky. Rutgers has lost three of four and six of eight coming into the Big 10 tournament, and yesterday's win over Michigan was a SO WHAT in my book. Why? The Wolverines were just an average team with a 17-14 record, 3-7 on the road, and didn't really scare anyone. This is also a revenge game for Purdue after losing to Rutgers at home in West Lafayette, 65-64 back in January. Took a bite on the overnight line at -5, and the line has jumped to -7. Still on Purdue, but gonna buy the money line. BOIL it baby!
