Maryland vs Purdue Prediction

Maryland is coming into this game playing in very bad form recently. They have lost 4 straight games and their last 2 losses were each by double digits. They are coming off of a devastating loss at home to Iowa 110-87 and now they are going on the road to play a Purdue team that is even better than Iowa. Maryland has already been struggling on the road with a 2-4 record and in their conference games with a 3-10 record. Now they have to go on the road against a Purdue team that is 10-4 in their conference games and 13-1 at home. Purdue is coming off of their own embarrassment in their last game losing to an unranked Michigan team on the road by close to 30 points. Purdue will be looking to get that game back and make a statement against a bad team like Maryland. Purdue is just a lot better than Maryland is and they will likely have their pride come out in this game as they look to make up for that Michigan game. Purdue has the talent to win this game by 20 points and they will be motivated to do it here.

Notable Quotes

 
“For us, it’s more of an effort thing. We just got to give 100% for the whole game. We can’t keep talking about it.” - Fatts Russell on their loss against Iowa.
 
 
"When you get out-rebounded like we did, and then you get doubled up in turnovers, and you don't shoot the ball well, then you need to be very, very good on the defensive end if you want a chance to win the game, and we obviously weren't." - Matt Painter on his team’s loss against Michigan.
