What to Know

We've got another exciting Big Ten matchup on schedule as the Purdue Boilermakers and the Oregon Ducks are set to tip at 3:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Matthew Knight Arena. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as the Boilermakers come in on six and the Ducks on three.

Purdue can't be too worried about heading out to take on Oregon: they just beat Washington at home, who had been dominant on their own court up to that point. Purdue walked away with a 69-58 victory over Washington on Wednesday.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Purdue to victory, but perhaps none more so than Caleb Furst, who scored 15 points in addition to six rebounds and four steals. Furst had some trouble finding his footing against Nebraska on Sunday, so this was a nice turnaround. The team also got some help courtesy of Braden Smith, who posted 17 points plus six rebounds and five assists.

Meanwhile, in a tight match that could have gone either way, Oregon made off with an 82-81 win over Penn State.

Oregon's win on Sunday was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Jackson Shelstad, who went 7 for 10 en route to 17 points plus eight assists. That's the most assists Shelstad has posted since back in December of 2023. Keeshawn Barthelemy was another key player, going 6 for 11 en route to 15 points plus six assists and six rebounds.

Oregon was working as a unit and finished the game with 22 assists. They are a perfect 4-0 when they've passed the ball that well.

Purdue pushed their record up to 14-4 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. As for Oregon, their win bumped their record up to 15-2.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as both are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Purdue hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 77.9 points per game. However, it's not like Oregon struggles in that department as they've been averaging 79.4. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.

Purdue is hoping to beat the odds on Saturday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. They might be worth a quick bet since they've covered the spread the last five times they've played.
