I first want to go low and say I put up some horrible outlooks last nite , lets gather up some rocks and stones and form a circle and you know the rest
I am going to break this down as I normally would and see if cutting back helps here , not so much for my benifit but for those of you who " might " lean on my opinion .
Purdue : 71.8 PF --- 58.7 PA ---- 43.3 FG% --- 35.3 3PT% --- 75.5 FT%
Oklahoma : 81.6 PF --- 60.2 PA --- 43.3 FG% --- 33.0 3PT% --- 73.9 FT%
As one can see there is a lot of parity here except for scoring where Okla. holds a advantage , but I will get to that soon ?
Purdue played : <<<<<>>>>>>> Oklahoma played :
Samford - 66-50 <<<<<>>>>>>> E. Wash. - 69-59
Texas St. - 61-50 <<<<>>>>>>> Oral Roberts - 84-68
Seton Hall - 75-63 <<<>>>>>>> Tulsa - 81-73
Duke - 78-68 <<<<<<<>>>>>>> Ark PineBluff - 94-24
Clemson - 76-64 <<<<<>>>>>>> @ Mich. St. - 80-77 (OT)
Chicago St. - 75-57
Match these games up and more than likely the teams that Purdue played would beat every team that Oklahoma played or at the very least covered the spread. I noticed that the Sooners had a tough time with Tulsa ( not a killer ) and caught the Spartans off guard ( killer schedule ) in OT . They also won thier only game on the road in thier first ten matchups ( coach Sampsons a smart one ) . But look a little deeper and you have to take notice that Purdue has the tougher run of the two , and has met its challenges also . ( EDGE PURDUE )
Now lets get to the finer points of capping , Senior leadership and size ! I tender these stats :
Purdue : 6`11`` senior , 6`11` senior , 6`10`` senior , 6`10`` soph. , 6`8`` senior , 6`8`` soph. , 6`7`` times 3
Okla. : 6`11` fresh , 6`10`` senior , 6`8`` junior , 6`8`` soph , after that it gets into midget land. ( BIG EDGE PURDUE )
Purdue last year : 2-7 ATS away , 4-6 ATS as dog
Okla. last year : 6-4-1 ATS @ home , 12-13-1 as a fav.
Niether one is a giant killer , this year :
Purdue : 3-0 ATS -------- Okla. : 1-1 ATS
My Opinion :
" Take Purdue + 6 while you can "
