This is an 8* TOP TOTAL on the UNDER Michigan/Purdue.

I expect a hard-fought, but ultimatley lower-scoring game here. Michigan has won four of its last five, including an 85-79 victory over Nebraska, while Purude has won four in a row, including an 88-73 win on the road over Minnesota.

Lots of winning, and higher-scoring games have driven this O/U line a few points higher than it normally would be in our opinions.

Michigan averages only 72.9 PPG, while allowing only 68.2, while Purude averages 84.6, while allowing 71.9.

I don't expect either team to reach their seasonal averages here. Michigan is desperate for victories and I expect it to play a very defensive style today.

This number is just a little high, the play is the UNDER.

Good luck, NP
