Purdue vs Maryland Game Preview

Why Maryland Will Win

On a four-game losing steak, Maryland is having defensive issues without enough takeaways or stops inside or out. What is it doing right?

It’s hitting its threes.

Not normally a great outside shooting team, it cranked up 14 threes in the 110-87 loss to Iowa and came up with ten in the 82-67 loss to Ohio State. The team can’t hang shot for shot with the Boilermakers, but if they can start putting the pressure on from the outside early, they might have a shot.

How did Purdue lose to Michigan 82-58 a few days ago? The Wolverines nailed 12-of-21 from three.

Why Purdue Will Win

Maryland isn’t cranking up the offense even with the threes.

The offensive rebounds aren’t there, the inside shooting is erratic, there are way too many turnovers, and in general, there aren’t enough offensive options to keep things going against the versatile Boilermakers.

Even with the loss to Michigan, Purdue is still the best scoring team in the Big Ten. It’s still the best rebounding team, it’s great from the line, and it’s the best in the conference from three.

Maryland won’t get enough rebounds to make up for the other issues.

What’s Going To Happen

This might be a plucky Maryland team that has its moments, but the three point shooting against Iowa was an aberration.

Purdue is going to be salty.

That Michigan loss was a blip, but that ends now. The dominance at home will continue. Currently 14-0 in Mackey, Purdue will come out hot and cruise from there.
