Purdue Boilermakers vs West Virginia Mountaineers 11/24/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

The #24 Purdue Boilermakers will meet with the West Virginia Mountaineers in NCAAB action in Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Portland, on Thursday, November 24, 2022, at 10:00 PM ET.

The Purdue Boilermakers are by no means content despite having a 29-win season in 2021–2022 and making it as far as the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.

Even though Purdue had one of their greatest teams in years, they were eliminated in the Sweet 16 by the overwhelming underdog Saint Peter’s after failing to win the Big Ten tournament.

With three of those team’s players no longer on the field, Purdue’s head coach plans to make an even stronger effort to achieve those high standards this year.

In a home Gavitt Games game on Tuesday, Purdue defeated Marquette 75-70 to raise its season record to 3-0. It was the group’s 17th consecutive victory at home over a non-conference opponent.

Zach Edey, a big guy, was instrumental in the victory with his third consecutive double-double, scoring 20 points and pulling down 13 rebounds.

Braden Smith, a freshman, contributed 20 points, three assists, and two rebounds. In the victory, Purdue had just six mistakes overall.

The Purdue Boilermakers are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 matches.
The total went UNDER in 6 of Purdue’s last 7 matches.
The Boilermakers are 5-1 SU in their last 6 matches.

Purdue Boilermakers vs West Virginia Mountaineers Predictions 11/24/2022

WVU head coach Bob Huggins reorganized his squad this season to find a team more suited to his playing style after a poor campaign last year that concluded at 16-17 overall and just 4-14 in the Big 12 conference. WVU defeated Penn at home on Friday night in their final game before this tournament, 92-58.

Huggins tied Jim Calhoun for third place on the record of Division 1 men’s basketball victories with the victory. He still needs 80 victories to reach 1,000 in his career.

This year, West Virginia appears to be a more conventional Bob Huggins’ squad after a difficult 2021–22 campaign. They are shooting 51% from the field overall and have a +23.7 point differential after their first four matches.

Huggins-led teams are more likely to exhibit this, a willingness to not give up and go for the rim. They are making 37% of their shots from beyond the arc. The Mountaineers have a +2.8 overall rebounding advantage.

The West Virginia Mountaineers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 matches.
The total went OVER in 5 of West Virginia’s last 6 games.
The Mountaineers are 6-1 SU in their last 7 matches.

#24 Purdue Boilermakers vs West Virginia Mountaineers. The NCAAB pick for this game is the West Virginia Mountaineers.

West Virginia is incredibly effective whether they are playing Huggins’ ball at home, on the road, or in a neutral location.

On defense, they attack the ball and drive to the hoop for greater looks. To get Purdue’s big man Edey into foul trouble immediately away, anticipate the Mountaineers to go after him right away.

Few teams ever attack the rim with as much force and aggression as West Virginia does when they are on. By the time league play begins, Purdue hopes to be playing their best basketball.

West Virginia now has a little advantage in the strength of schedule and appeared to be the more reliable team, especially considering their propensity to make easy baskets.

Expect Huggins’ side to control the action and prevail in this first-round showdown. West Virginia will win to a predicted score of 71-68.
