Purdue/Kansas is an even match-up....take the points...[ PURDUE +5.5 ]

Question

I had a real big start to the tournament, but gave some back with Cincy on sunday... lesson learned.

Purdue's offense is built to beat Kansas, and they can control the defensive boards tonight as well. Just limit turovers and Purdue can easily win this. You will see Purdue shoot well from 3... Trust me.

They will put PJ on Mason, Ryan/Carsen on Graham, Vince Edwards on Mykhailiuk, Biggie on Lucas, and Dakota on Jackson. I think that Mason is going to get his no matter who is on him but PJ might be able to get a couple of steals from him. Mykhailiuk and Jackson are both 6’7" so I would put Dakota the better defender on their most dangerous scorer, Jackson. Edward's height will give Mykhailiuk trouble getting shots off.

It's an even match-up here, so take the 5 and a half points, and put a little on Purdue's moneyline +200. This is a toss-up game. The books give a 2 point advantage to Kansas (pedigree)... then add 3.5 points just because everyone is led to believe Kansas is so unstoppable.

Don't get ripped of by odds makers, take Purdue +5.5 and a little +200 moneyline.. long term winning formula..

Dakota Mathias guarding Jackson....? Oh dear god Josh Jackson would have 25 points by halftime. I love Mathias and he is a very intelligent defender, but he legit zero foot speed and has gotten burned countless times this year when having to guard athletic wings.

Agreed, most of the public think Kansas is automatic to the Final 4 they will fave their hands full tonight.  Maybe they win a close one but 2-1 on the moneyline seems enticing to me.

PJ on Mason and Ryan/Carson on Graham scares me. Purdue has yet to see a guard tandem like this. Mason and Graham could erupt. if Purdue wins this game it will be done on the glass and on the offensive end. Kansas will score points, Purdue must score with them.
