Pat Forde provides a preview and a pick for Saturday's biggest game. Forget what's happening on Tobacco Road; Purdue vs. Indiana is the best rivalry game of the weekend. Purdue is absolutely deserving of its No. 1 ranking, playing at a high level behind the tower of power that is 7'4” Zach Edey. And yet, the Boilers are overdue to lose and this is the spot to drop one. No. 1 Purdue vs. No. 21 Indiana Game Info: Feb. 4, 2023 | 4 p.m. ET | ESPN Purdue Straight-Up Record: 21-1
Purdue Against the Spread Record: 1 0-11-1 Indiana Straight-Up Record: 15-7

I see the Vols ready to bounce back with some ferocity after losing at Florida on Wednesday and this is a favorable matchup. Tennessee is the best defensive team in the country, particularly at the three-point line. Opponents are making just 22.5 percent of their threes, and Auburn is a poor three-point shooting team - but still takes a fair...
