Tony Caliente here with a look at the Big Ten Final odds for Michigan vs. Purdue being played at Madison Square Garden in New York City. There is no home court advantage here.
Michigan will attempt to become the first team in seven years to win consecutive Big Ten Tournament titles when it faces Purdue in the final Sunday at Madison Square Garden.
The No. 15 Wolverines, seeded fifth, knocked off No. 2 Michigan State, the top seed, 75-62 in the first semifinal Saturday before a sellout crowd of 19,812.
Red hot Purdue was coming in as a -4.5 favorite. The College Basketball Betting Power Ratings indicate the line should only be Purdue -4.
The Boilermakers have won the last two in this series but both fell within the current spread. Michigan won the previous two in the series.
