DraftKings had the Boilermakers open as a 1-point favorite over Illinois on Sunday.

The over/under for this Saturday afternoon’s game is 53.5, with the moneyline for Illinois at -105, and at -115 for Purdue.

Of course, with both teams having their struggles early on this season, it’s no shock that Vegas expects a close game, and one that isn’t all that high-scoring as well.

Kickoff is at 2:30 p.m. CT exclusively on Peacock.
