Statistical Analysis:

Purdue boasts an impressively high-scoring offense, ranking 10th in the country, against Utah State's somewhat lenient defense. Purdue's ability to efficiently score, highlighted by their rank in true shooting percentage, could spell trouble for Utah State. Furthermore, Purdue's top-notch three-point shooting against Utah State's lower-ranked three-point defense could be a key difference.

Betting Trends section:

Purdue has been dominant this season, reflected in their superior offensive stats. Utah State, while a formidable opponent, might struggle to contain Purdue's powerful attack. Recent forms show Purdue slightly cooling off in scoring but still robust defensively.

Betting advice:

Given the statistical advantages and recent performance, Purdue looks set to cover the spread. However, the high over/under suggests an expectation of a scoring feast, making the over a tantalizing option.
