Purdue sits at a predicted 87% chance of victory, but there really aren’t too many areas that Indiana performs extremely poorly. Keep an eye out on the Hoosiers three-point shooting (currently 231st nationally at 32.4%) and the fact that they rarely steal the ball (steal rate of 8.3%, 296th nationally) and hope those trends continue.
That said, Kenpom currently projects the visiting Hoosiers, already losers of two in a row, to lose their next six games, including their second meeting with the Boilermakers on February 23. Yikes.
