Sports Chat Place
Sports Chat Place likes Purdue in this one as well, but it should be noted their line reads at 4.5 in favor of the Boilermakers. They find it hard to believe that Indiana, who has lost 10 of their last 11 games, won't be able to match the intensity of Purdue, despite playing at home.
Hoosier State of Mind
It's never a good sign when the hometown website doesn't have their team winning the game. Especially, when it's against an in-state rival. You'd at least think there would be some extra lean toward to home-team Hoosiers. But that's not the case on Tuesday night.

Apparently home-court advantage doesn't mean anything for Indiana as the experts went a clean three-for three in taking the Boilermakers tonight. Teams that have lost 10 of their last 11 games tend to not give the experts or the public much faith.
