Purdue has ignited to become one of the hottest teams for betting on NCAA Football. Correlate the Boilermakers run of three wins and four payouts in a row. But what is most frustrating for Purdue fans is that they know that they could easily be undefeated. In short, their three straight losses to start the year were all self-inflicted wounds. By contrast undefeated Ohio State has been dropping in board value. In fact, the Buckeyes have slipped into full throttle overlay status as of late. Starting with a defense that has slipped and allowing teams through the back door.
