Toledo vs Purdue Prediction
The Purdue Boilermakers have the ability to blow the doors off, but they also haven’t played in over a week and have failed to cover 4 of their last 5 games. The Toledo Rockets have a couple of road wins this season, and they shoot the ball well enough to hang around. Toledo also just played Houston and managed to cover a similar number, so the Rockets shouldn’t be scared entering this game. Purdue scores at will and should win, but I want the points in my pocket. Give me the Rockets on the road.
