Purdue vs. Gonzaga picks and predictions
Prediction
Purdue 86, Gonzaga 79
Moneyline
PASS.
There is no value on Purdue (-200) winning at -200 odds. With Edey, the Boilermakers are the clear favorites, tacked on by the fact Gonzaga has yet to face real competition.
Against the spread
BET PURDUE -4.5 (-110).
Purdue has shown the ability to spread the ball and has the most dominant big man in basketball. At over 7 feet, Edey provides a playmaking ability that is unguardable by any Gonzaga player. He was the biggest factor in Purdue's win over Xavier and will be the biggest factor for Purdue's win over Gonzaga on Monday night.

Over/Under
LEAN OVER 155.5 (-110).
Purdue has scored at least 83 points in each of its games this season, while Gonzaga has scored at least 86 in both of its games. These teams have a tendency to push the ball and create scoring opportunities, which is what they will be looking to do in Maui on Monday. Expect a lot of points.
