  • Smith has some solid value with the UNDER 11.5 scoring based on six of his last seven games not going above that number.

  • Smith's assists total is the most of any Boilermaker ever.

  • Should the NC State vs. Purdue game go into Overtime, the payout would be a huge $900 for every $100 bet.

  • Both teams to score 65+ is the favorite at -228.

  • First shot made pays $125 on a $100 bet.

Purdue Boilermakers guard Braden Smith is listed with an Over/Under total of 11.5 points scored in Saturday's Final Four game against NC State.

While Smith did score 14 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt), eight rebounds, 15 assists and one steal in 40 minutes during Friday's 80-68 win over Gonzaga.  His scoring performance against Tennessee was below the current total with just 9 points scored.

And against Utah State he managed a mere 5 points.

It's easy to see why the UNDER 11.5 might be so appealing here.  Smith has scored UNDER that number in six of his last seven games. 

Smith played a critical role in the Tennessee win as he grabbed seven rebounds and accounted for seven assists.  His rebounds total for Saturday's game was coming in at 5.5 and his assists total at 7.5.

In fact, his assists total is the most by any Boilermaker in an NCAA tournament game.

You can bet on Smith making at least a customized assists number that includes a payout of nearly $500 for every $100 bet with 12 plus assists made.

What Will the Payout Be If the NC State vs. Purdue Game Go Into OT?

Should the Wolfpack-Boilermakers Final Four game end up going into OT we are looking at a huge payout of $900 for every $100 bet.

We've seen a few NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament games go into overtime so far this year including Northwestern vs. FAU and Oregon vs. Creighton.

It should be noted that there is no limit imposed on the number of OT periods in any given game during March Madness.  In its history we've seen two games go into quadruple overtime.
