College Basketball pick today: Milwaukee Panthers vs Purdue Boilermakers – Under 142 points (-110), 6:30 pm ET
The best bet in this game is the under, as Milwaukee's interior defense should be able to do just enough to keep Zach Edey and company from completely dominating this game.'Granted, they didn't face someone as imposing as Zach Edey, but the interior defense was the lone strength of the Panthers last year.
Last season, the Panthers ranked 346th in KenPom's adjusted offensive efficiency and while they have a new coaching staff and several new players, it's unlikely to see a finely-tuned offense on opening night, especially against an opponent of Purdue's caliber. Purdue did struggle last season on the defensive end, ranking just 93rd in KenPom's adjusted defensive efficiency, but we shouldn't expect that defense to be challenged much in this matchup with Milwaukee, making the under the play for tonight.
