The Michigan State Spartans will look to improve on their three-game winning streak when they take on the Purdue Boilermakers in the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament. The Spartans took care of Wisconsin while the Boilermakers got by Penn State. Purdue is 6-4 in its last 10 games against Michigan State. The Boilermakers have won five of their last seven games. Both teams like to hit the offensive boards but Purdue has an edge in rebounding overall. The Biggest difference between the two teams is that the Spartans turn the ball over a ton. They have averaged 14 turnovers in the three games in the tournament so far. Purdue's defense should be able to slow down an MSU offense that gets disjointed way too much with the turnovers.

Play on Purdue. This is an 8* play.
