What Will Purdue Pay On The Moneyline To Win The Music City Bowl?

The Boilermakers will pay out $175 on a $100 bet or $17.50 for every $10 bet.

Why Purdue Can Cover

  • After a win, Tennessee is just 8-17-0 Against The Spread since 2017.
  • As an underdog, Purdue is 13-6 Against The Spread since 2017.
  • The original line of -2.5 was on the money according to Gambling911.com.

So What Happened to Cause the Line Shift?

The Boilermakers will be without five starters after multiple opt-outs and rumored academic issues.

Tennessee that will not have one of their top players.  Senior right tackle Cade Mays is out.

Purdue QB Aidan O'Connell. The fifth-year senior led the Big Ten completing 73.5% of his passes and has completed 74% or better in seven straight games. O'Connell was at his best against top competition, averaging 433.7 yards, completing 75.3% of his passes and throwing nine TDs with no interceptions in games against Iowa, Michigan State and Ohio State.

Purdue needs a victory to finish the season with the most wins in a season since 2003.

Profitable Teams for the Bookies

Purdue has proven profitable for sports bettors as they have gone 7-5 Against The Spread.  Oddsmakers can help put the kabash on that Thursday.

Tennessee, on the other hand, has provided wins for the books. Coming into this one they are 5-7 ATS.

With 80% of the overnight action on Tennessee, books may be happy to see Purdue close at 8-5 Against The Spread on the season.
