The Purdue Boilermakers are -15.5 point favorites in their final Hoosier Crossroads Classic game against Butler according to Draftkings. Odds/lines subject to change. T&Cs apply. See draftkings.com/sportsbook for details.
Purdue’s first, and to this point, only week at #1 did not go as planned. They lost their first ever game at #1 when Rutger’s Ron Harper Jr. hit a half court heave at the end of regulation. They nearly left New York City 0-2 as the highest ranked team in the country. Instead, a big comeback and a convincing overtime against NC State let them hold onto some national respect and they only dropped two spots to #3.
