This is right where I thought the Boilermakers would be seeded. This is not an easy matchup though. They will have to play well.
Old Dominion is not an elite team but they play tough. The total says this one will be low scoring so covering that spread could be difficult. .
Purdue Boilermakers
The Boilermakers have to be a little disappointed with losing to Minnesota in the Big Ten Tournament but overall it was a very good season in West Lafayette.
Carsen Edwards did not disappoint. He scored 23ppg to lead the team but at times might have taken on too much. He can win a game by himself though and that matters this time of year.

Sophomore Nojel Eastern will be important. He is 6’6″ but more like a point guard on this team. He allows Edwards to play off the ball. Teams are going to dare him to shoot though – he has not made a three all season.
Senior Grady Eifert has become an important piece. Not only does he hustle like crazy but he is making 43% of this threes. He can turn a game with his effort and they will need his toughness in this matchup.
Old Dominion Monarchs
There might not have been a lot of pub about ODU but they won the regular season Conference USA championship and tournament titles. They are definitely no fluke.
Their success is predicated on defense. They were fifth in the nation yielding only 60ppg. Offensively they have some challenges.

B.J. Stith is a senior guard with an impressive pedigree. He leads the team at almost 17ppg but he has struggled in March. Any chance of advancement will require more from him.
Ahmad Caver is another senior guard who averages 16ppg and between him and Stith that is about half of their scoring. Neither has been very efficient this season but they are capable and will have the ball in their hands a lot..

Free Purdue Boilermakers vs. Old Dominion Monarchs NCAAB Prediction:
Purdue is good and I think they can go far in this tournament. I do not like this like though.
It looks like they are predicting a low scoring game and I think ODU keeps it close even if they never really threaten.

Looks for this one to finish with a 10 point margin as the Monarchs refuse to go away.
