Purdue (22-10, 14-7) and Michigan (22-9, 14-6) close out the day's play in the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis tonight.
Both of these schools struggled down the stretch. Including yesterday's win over USC, Purdue has won just three times in their past eight games. Michigan has lost their last three games.
These teams met on February 11 and Purdue escaped Ann Arbor with a 75-73 win.

The latest odds as of Friday courtesy of BetMGM:
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the defenses to shine in this one: Under 147.5 (-110)
"Michigan is on a three-game losing streak and scored 73, 65, and 62 points in that stretch. The Wolverines scored 64 and 75 points in the two meetings with the Boilermakers this season and with both squads playing inside then out, I think we see a slow tempo and the forwards/centers battle for the majority of this contest. I like the Under 147.5 down to 145.5. The totals were 151 and 152 in the regular season, so I think it's telling the total has dropped two-to-three possessions for this meeting."
