Oakland Golden Grizzlies vs Purdue Boilermakers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/07/25

The Oakland Golden Grizzlies travel to meet the top-ranked Purdue Boilermakers on Friday night at Mackey Arena in West Lafayette, Indiana. Oakland, a Horizon League representative, was pounded 121-78 at Michigan on Monday night as a 24.5-point underdog as the over (157) cashed. Oakland slipped behind by 31 points at halftime, as the Grizzlies hit just 42% from the field and 42% from behind the 3-point line. Simply put, the Grizzlies were roughed up despite the fact that they turned it over just 9 times. However, Isaac Garrett was pretty solid with 20 points on 8-of-10 shooting as one of the bright spots.

Top-ranked Purdue opened the season with an 82-51 win, just missing a cover as a 33-point favorite while the under (149.5) cashed. Purdue hit 47% from the field, and it emptied the bench against the Purple Aces. Purdue was covering late in the game, winning by 38 points with about 5 minutes to go, but the reserves were outplayed by the Purple Aces, who earned the backdoor cover. For Oakland, you can expect more of the same. These games are big deals for the lower-tier teams, while the Big Ten teams get reserve players valuable experience once the game gets out of hand. Often times a cover for the huge favorite can turn into a late cover for the little guys, who play hard until the end.
