📈 Purdue vs. Utah State Odds
Peek at these Purdue-USU lines found at BetMGM Sportsbook, current as of Saturday at 10 p.m. ET:
- Moneyline: Purdue (-650) • Utah State (+450)
- Spread: Purdue -11.5 (-110) • Utah State +11.5 (-110)
- Total Points: Over 148.5 (-110) • Under 148.5 (-110)
After coasting through the first round of the NCAA Tournament, top-seed Purdue now turns its attention to a slightly more difficult test in eighth-seeded Utah State.
The teams square off Sunday (2:40 p.m. ET) in the second round of the Midwest Regional at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
Despite Purdue’s recent struggles in the NCAA Tournament, the betting public is still heavily behind the Boilermakers. We’ve seen this spread grow by as much as a full point at some sportsbooks. Meanwhile, the total has crept up from 148.5 to 149 points.
🔮 Purdue vs. Utah State Prediction
Purdue 79, Utah State 70
Utah State won the Mountain West regular-season championship and has strong peripheral rankings: No. 38 NET, No. 45 KenPom.
With nine combined Quad 1 and 2 wins, the Aggies have consistently demonstrated an ability to compete with tough competition. The 6-foot-8, 250-pound Osobor is a big reason why — literally and figuratively.
The Aggies are skilled enough offensively — 31st in efficiency — to challenge Purdue, but the Boilermakers are better balanced.
✅ Purdue vs. Utah State Best Bet
Utah State +11.5 (-110)
BetMGM Sportsbook • 1 Unit
Purdue is among the most balanced teams in the country, ranking top 20 in both offensive and defensive efficiency. Led by 7-foot-4 center Zach Edey and guard Braden Smith, the Boilermakers are capable of dominating games from both inside and out.
With Great Osobor, the Aggies may be able to match them physically, but Purdue’s offensive depth is why the Boilermakers should ultimately advance. Not to mention, this is a virtual home game for Matt Painter’s team.
I’m taking the Aggies (15-15-2 ATS) to keep things reasonably close and cover as 11.5-point underdogs.
