Prediction

We saw one heck of a top 10 matchup last night in Ames, Iowa and we have another one on tap for tonight. Michigan is the No. 1 team in the country and are on their way to being the overall No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Wolverines have a perfect record away from home, while Purdue has dropped two games at Mackey Arena. Michigan will win this game on defense. They are a terrific rebounding team and they average over six blocked shots a game. They also defend the three-point line better than the Boilermakers. Michigan also has the edge in offensive rebounding, which will give them more second chances on the offensive end. It won’t be easy, but I like the Wolverines to record another big road win.

Pick: Michigan -1.5
