Purdue, with a record of 15-2 overall and 4-2 in the Big Ten, will strive to improve their away record of 2-2 this season after suffering a tough loss in their previous road game against Nebraska. On the other hand, the Hoosiers boast a record of 12-5 overall and 4-2 in the Big Ten. They have been performing extremely well, winning 5 out of their last 7 games, their 9-1 record at home is definitely something to keep an eye on.

Purdue’s senior center Zach Edey, the 2022-23 NCAA Player of the Year, showcased his exceptional skills in the recent victory against Penn State. He recorded an impressive 30 points, 20 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 blocks. Said display marked his 10th double-double of the season.

Throughout the current season, Reneau has been a key figure for the Hoosiers, starting in all 17 games and maintaining an impressive average of 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 3.1 assists in 29.1 minutes of playtime.
Overall, this is one of the most anticipated matchups in the NCAAB calendar, as Indiana is considered the last bastion that could dominate Purdue this season. It is easier said than done, with Purdue’s roster boasting a plethora of talent. Nevertheless, we expect Indiana to continue their dominance, mainly due to Purdue’s tough away record.
