Purdue was really dominant the entire season in the Big Ten conference. Unlike them, Penn State was just an average team and they surprised many making it to the conference finals. One of the key players for the success was Jalen Pickett who leads the team with 18 points per game. The Nittany Lions have slim chances to stun the Boilermakers and if they really want to do that Pickett needs to be red-hot. Unfortunately for them, Purdue is a great defensive team. They are ranked number 1 in the country allowing only 24.4 rebounds per game and are ranked 21st among 350 schools allowing only 62.5 points per game. Knowing that, Purdue will find a way to stop picked and limit him to under 19.5 points tonight which is the point margin set on him.
