Stephen Nover's CBB Monday Top Ticket - 12-4 CBB Hot Streak
(NCAAB) Iowa vs. Purdue,
Total: 164.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
Total: 164.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
I find this total to be too high, an overreaction to each team's last game.
Iowa rolled past North Florida, 103-78, in its previous game this past Wednesday. That was a quick-paced game with North Florida throwing up 31 3-point shots. Purdue is not like that.
The Boilermakers lost, 92-88, as 5 1/2-point road favorites to Northwestern in their last game, which was three days ago. That game went into overtime. The score was 76-76 after regulation.
Purdue has a problem with turnovers, committing 15 or more in three of its last four games. The Boilermakers, though, usually are stout defensively. They rank 34th in the nation in defensive field goal percentage and 15th in 3-point defense.
This also is a Big Ten matchup where defense is stressed.
