KenPom ratings has Central Michigan as the 191st-rated team in the country. Their offense drives that rating, as KenPom has their adjusted offense at 133rd-rated in the country, and (get ready for this) they average the third-most points/game in the country, at 87.9.
That could be attributed to their tempo, as KenPom reports their adjusted tempo at 10th in the nation and raw tempo at 7th in the nation. The Chippewas like to score and score quick.
Senior guard Kevin McKay leads the Chippewas aggressive offense. He averages about 16 points/game on a pretty-damn-good 66% from the field.
Purdue Boilermakers
The Boilermakers are 7-5 on the season and 1-1 in Big 10 conference play so far. However, they do sport aa 5-1 record when they play at the Mackey.
Purdue’s big problem is that they haven’t really beaten anyone this year. They’ve lost to Texas, Marquette, Florida State, Nebraska, and most recently Butler. They did dominate #16 Virginia in a defensive performance for the ages, but KenPom has UVA’s adjusted offense rating at 179th in the nation.
The Boilermakers continue to rely on their defense. KenPom has them at 6th-rated in the nation in adjusted defense, and they allow the 8th-fewest points/game in the nation, at 57.
Their offense continues to struggle, and their only real performer is Senior guard Jaahad Proctor, who is averaging about 12 points/game on very poor efficiency.
CBB Betting Trends:
- Central Michigan are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games.
- Central Michigan are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games played in December.
- Purdue are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 games.
Free Central Michigan Chippewas vs. Purdue Boilermakers NCAAB Prediction: Boilermakers in a blowout.
Defense wins championships.
And Central Michigan is about to run their “offensive juggernaut” into the most dominant defense they’ve played all year. On the road. In an arena where Purdue has only lost once this season.
And we haven’t even mentioned the Chippewas poor defense. A defense that KenPom rates as 256th in the nation and falls outside the top-300 in points allowed per game.
I imagine this spread will be massive, maybe 20+. However, given Purdue’s lackluster performances so far, this seems like a perfect spot for the coaching staff to get the team on the same page and blow out a mid-major team.
Purdue wins here by 25.
