Las Vegas - Looking at a little Big Ten action tonight in West Lafayette, Indiana, with Purdue hosting Minnesota. When we started the research for ECKstats, we had no idea that Minny would be one of the BEST spread teams in the entire country. Yea, the Golden Gophers are just 15-8 straight up but an INCREDIBLE 18-4-1 against the spread. The Gophers have one of the few guys that can fight Purdue's Zach Edey one on one. His name is Dawson Garcia and he is a mountain at 6'11" and 240 pounds. Garcia leads the team in points per game (17.3) and rebounds (6.6), but he hurt his knee in the last game against Iowa. They're listing him as questionable, and if he does not play, then we wash the wager. If Garcia plays, we would be happy to grab +16.5 or +17 points and run to the bank.
