Opening Odds and Game Preview: #5 Purdue at Northwestern

#5 Purdue might finally be able to catch their breath after playing 6 games in two weeks where they took on and beat ranked teams, Ohio St. and Illinois, before being blown out in their second match up to Michigan in four days in Ann Arbor and barely beating Maryland at home.

The Boilermakers in their last two games have looked a far cry away from their world beating 21-3 start to the season when they looked like a pre-determined #1 seed come NCAA Tournament time.

But they are in the middle of their most manageable three-game stretch in the Big Ten Conference and more importantly, will get at least three days in between every one of their final five games of the regular season.
