Illinois @ Purdue Tonight A Big One

Illini missing their best player but other guys stepping up

The line is 10.5 Purdue

Slight lean as of now Illini, waiting for information from the arena later

So you're leaning Purdue -10.5?
Domansk seems to be picking up the scoring from the absence of Shannon. Might be within that spread. Tough call....

Let us know what you hear from the arena.

I misread his post. Thanks for clarifying.

I was leaning Purdue w/ Shannon out but Domanske is hot right now so the line might be tough to cover.

Then again, Purdue D is a whole different animal than Domanske has seen since he's been playing without Shannon. I think Purdue focuses on Domanske and maybe Guerrier, keeping them at bay, to win easily.

Still on fence on the 10.5. Pondering.

Purdue is the best team in the country. They're more than just Zach Edey they have very talented guards this season and are probably playing better than anyone right now. That said I think this is too many points for them to lay against a solid Illinois squad. I took +10.5 with the Fighiting Illini so hopefully they keep this one close but so far Big Ten home teams have been dominating so we'll see what happens.

I’m leaning more toward Illinois. I think they’re underrated even without their star.

Landers knows this team inside and out.

Hopefully he chimes in with some analysis.

Landers wrong 75% of time with Illini sports

He may be stronger with Illini football.

Thanks and good luck, JR!

Only these kind of recent results makes me don't want to side with any teams.

I feel exactly the same way Jrgum. I think Illinois will stay close but Purdue is too good.
