4* Free Week 3 NCAA Betting Prediction: Purdue +2.5
As noted the last game out for the Boilermakers was a nice 24-17 win over the Hokies. (Not a slouch in their own right)
After an impressive defensive showing against Virginia Tech, I’m favoring Purdue to cover the spread this week, especially with the line currently set at +2.5.
I really like the three-headed attack that Purdue rolls out in Card, Mockobee and Klare. Plus there is some serious depth on this team as well.
Purdue is a team that has already been tested this year, and they play a nice brand of football. They’ll really get in your face, and really get after it.
Not sure they have an outright win in them this weekend, but they’ll throw the ball all over the field, to keep this one within the number.
