Even when a team is winning outright, this doesn't necessarily mean they are covering the spread.  Gambling911.com looks at recent game performance for specific teams to see who is winning out - the bookie or the bettor.  Here we look at the Purdue Boilermakers as of February 23.

Purdue owns a 14-11 record Against The Spread and have lost seven games outright this season.  They rank a 6 in covering over the last ten games, having done so in six and pushing in one over that span.  They have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five during that span however.

On BTN at 2 pm EST Saturday, Purdue will face off against Nebraska as a -6 road favorite.

Be forewarned, the home team (in this case Nebraska) has won seven of the last eight in this series.  Purdue did blow out the Huskers at home back in 2016 and only two of these road wins were in Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are 1-9 Against The Spread in their last 10 games overall.
