March Madness picks, odds, and predictions for Utah State [Nickname 1] vs Purdue [Nickname 2]. March Madness free picks and best bet analysis.
Zach Edey had a dominant opening-round game, and with Purdue's lofty March Madness hopes resting largely on his shoulders, our college basketball picks are backing him to crush Utah State as well.
The Aggies have a big frontcourt with seven-foot center Isaac Johnson and 6-foot-8, 250-pound star forward Great Osobor. Strangely enough, that actually makes it more likely that Edey will have a big game. Teams that play small ball and push the pace can sometimes force Edey out of his comfort zone or make Purdue coach Matt Painter roll with a smaller lineup himself.
While I expect the Aggies to get bullied by Edey inside, I also think they'll do their part to help this total go Over. The Aggies are 31st in the country in adjusted offensive efficiency while boasting a sizzling 57.3 2PT%, and they've dropped at least 87 points in four of their last five games. Both of these teams also have strong Over trends with the Over 18-9 in Utah State's last 27 games while going 22-11 O/U in Purdue's previous 33 contests.
The Aggies smoked TCU by 16 points in the opening round to easily cover as 3.5-point pups. They finished the regular season atop the Mountain West standings with a 14-4 record, but haven't been covering lately, going 4-7-2 ATS in their last 13 games. They are just 2-5 ATS as an underdog this season and have gone 3-7-2 ATS on the road.
