Marquette won 80-59 against Mount St. Mary's in their season opener. The win wasn't all that great to me, Marquette has a weak rotation for this season and it's gonna cost them in games like this. They had a 48-27 halftime lead against St. Mary's but drew the second half 32-32. Purdue have a more deep talent and rotation. I had them as one of the underdog to win this season National Championship. They have started the season strongly, scored 105 & 111 points in their opening two games, which saw them win SIU-Edwardsville by 31 before beating Chicago State by 69 points. They have six guys with double-digit scores already and that's great rotation. They are shooting a sweet 44.7% of their 3-pointers while Marquette are shooting 28.6%.

Marquette are 0-4 ATS when their opponent scored 100 or more points in their previous game.
