Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A chance to play in the Big Ten Conference
Tournament championship game will be on the line this afternoon when the
sixth-seeded Minnesota Golden Gophers take on the second-seeded Purdue Boilermakers in semifinal round action at the Conseco Fieldhouse.
The Golden Gophers began the tournament with a 76-55 victory over Penn State,
and followed that with an impressive 72-67 overtime decision over Michigan
State on Friday. Minnesota might be playing as the sixth seed, but the team
has won six of its last eight games.
The sixth-ranked Boilermakers moved into the semifinal round with a solid,
69-61 victory over Northwestern on Friday. It was the 13th win in the last 14
games for Purdue, which is looking to repeat as the Big Ten Tournament champs.
The Boilermakers currently own a 95-78 edge over Minnesota in the all-time
series and have won the last five meetings. This season Purdue narrowly
defeated the Golden Gophers twice.
The Golden Gophers were not intimidated by the 14th-ranked Michigan State Spartans on Friday, and proved it by grabbing a five-point overtime victory to
move into the semifinal round. Minnesota shot just 39.0 percent from the
floor, but finished a solid 10-of-23 from behind the arc and also connected on
16-of-21 attempts from the foul line. Devoe Joseph led the way with 17 points,
while Blake Hoffarber tallied 14 points. Colton Iverson and Lawrence Westbrook
finished with 12 and 11 points, respectively, in the win. Westbrook comes into
this matchup leading the Gophers with 12.7 ppg, while Hoffarber is
contributing 10.6 ppg for Minnesota, which as a whole is netting 73.4 ppg.
The Boilermakers shot just 29.6 percent from the floor in the first half and
went into the break down four points against Northwestern. However, Purdue
stormed back in the second stanza and by the final buzzer the team had claimed
an eight-point victory. The Boilermakers only shot 35.3 percent from the
matchup, but connected on 29-of-39 attempts from the foul line. E'Twaun Moore
poured in 28 points in the win, while JaJuan Johnson added 22 points and eight
rebounds. Without Robbie Hummel on the floor, Moore has stepped up his
production and comes into this contest averaging 17.0 ppg, to go along with 87
assists. As for Johnson, he is posting 15.1 ppg and a team-best 7.2 rpg for
Purdue, which as a whole is producing a respectable 72.0 ppg.
