This model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, has crushed its top-rated college basketball picks against the spread the past three years, returning $2,770 to $100 players. Anybody who has followed it has seen huge returns.
Now, the model has set its sights on Michigan vs. Purdue. We can tell you that the model is leaning over, and it has generated a spread pick that is hitting in well over 60 percent of simulations. You can head to SportsLine to see it. Now, here are the college basketball betting lines and trends for Purdue vs. Michigan:
- Michigan vs. Purdue spread: Michigan -5
- Michigan vs. Purdue over-under: 128.5 points
- Michigan vs. Purdue money line: Purdue +187, Michigan -234
- PUR: 330-165 (.667) in 15 seasons under coach Matt Painter.

The Wolverines have had a lot of success recently and have had four straight winning seasons coming into the year and eight over the past nine. Since 2008-09, Michigan has earned nine NCAA Tournament appearances. The Wolverines have also fared well against non-ranked opponents this season, going 8-1.
Senior guard Zavier Simpson has been a catalyst for the Michigan offense, averaging 8.9 assists per game. Simpson has five or more assists in 13 of 14 games, with 10 or more in five of those, including a career-best 14 against Houston Baptist on Nov. 22. He ranks second nationally in assists per game behind Samford's Josh Sharkey (9.2 average).
But just because the Wolverines have been tough on non-ranked opponents, does not guarantee they will win or cover the Purdue vs. Michigan spread on Thursday.
That's because the Boilermakers have been turning up the heat once the calendar turns to a new year. Since 2018, Purdue is 17-2 during the month of January, with one loss coming at Michigan State (Jan. 8, 2019) and Sunday's loss to Illinois. Since the 2014-15 season, the Boilermakers have compiled a 33-11 record in the month of January.
Purdue has three players who average 10 points or more, led by junior center Matt Haarms, who is averaging 11.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists. He started January off on the right foot, pouring in 26 points and grabbing nine rebounds in an 83-78 victory over Minnesota on Jan. 2. He has scored in double figures in eight of 13 games this season.
