Boilermakers vs Badgers Best Picks and Prediction

The Purdue Boilermakers are strong, but Wisconsin should never be written off. Although Purdue is scoring points on offense, advanced statistics reveal that they aren't very exceptional.

Defense is Wisconsin's greatest strength, and they rank 68th in EPA (expected points added)/game for total offense.

Aidan O'Connell, the Purdue quarterback, is putting up impressive numbers, but he will have it tough against a strong pass defense that only allows 215 passing yards per game on average.

Pick: Graham Mertz Over 1.5 pass TDs (-110)

Prediction: Wisconsin -1.5 (-105)
