Free Illinois Fighting Illini vs. Purdue Boilermakers NCAAB Prediction:
The Boilermakers are a much stronger team than Illinois on both ends of the court this season. They are also stronger when it comes to clearing the glass and passing the ball.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Illinois +13.5
Purdue should have no problem coming away with the win at home, however I am not sure they play strong enough on the backend of the court here to cover the spread.
I like Illinois and the points on the road.
