Utah State vs Purdue Picks & Prediction
The Mountain West Conference did not fare well in the first round of the NCAA Tournament by going 2-4.
One of the winners was Utah State, who routed TCU, 88-72 as 3.5-point underdogs on Friday night for the program's first tournament victory since 2001.
The Aggies face top-seeded Purdue, who didn't repeat history by losing to a 16th-seed for a second straight season. The Boilermakers took care of Grambling State, 78-50 to barely cash as hefty 27-point favorites behind Zach Edey's 30 points and 21 rebounds.
Utah State won the regular season MWC title with a 14-4 mark, as the Aggies ranked 3rd in the nation in 3-point defense at 29.1%.
On the other side, Purdue was one of the leading 3-point shooting teams in the country at 40.7%, even though the Boilermakers are 19-of-54 (35.1%) in the past three games from long distance.
Considering both teams won their regular season conference title and Purdue is laying this amount, the Boilermakers are the way to go.
Pick: Purdue -11.5 (-110)
