5% UNDER … These teams have both been going ‘over’ the total in this tournament. Those results have worked in our favor by driving this O/U line up a little higher than it could easily have been. Keep in mind that Purdue entered the weekend allowing just 62.6 ppg. Penn State entered the weekend allowing 68.3 ppg on the season but just 65.6 ppg its last five. I expect all the minutes played to lead to some more missed shots on Sunday afternoon. Keep in mind that last year's finalists both scored less in the final than they had been earlier in the tournament. Iowa, which won the touranemnt, had scored 112, 84 and 77 its first three games but 75 in the final. Purdue, which scored 69 and 75 its first two games ended up with 66 in the final. The 75-66 final score stayed comfortably below the total. While this, of course, is a lower O/U number, it's also going to be played at a slower pace than last year's final. Look for plenty of defensive intensity and the final score to prove lower than many will be expecting.
Line Parameter: Reduce to 4% if lower than 134. No play if lower than 132.
