Takeaways from Penn State's lopsided loss at Purdue

See that Purdue dude in the picture above. He is wiiiiiiide open. Penn State coach Micah Shrewsberry had a better chance guarding them than any of his defenders, who weren't in the same zip code.

It was kind of like that all night, as the No. 1 Boilermakers lit up the Penn State defense for 14 3-pointers in an 80-60 thumping at Mackey Arena in West Lafayette, Ind.

Here are the three main takeaways from the game.

1. Purdue is really good, and a terrible matchup for Penn State

The Boilermakers are a difficult matchup for just about everyone, with 7-foot-4 big man Zach Edey capable of dominating anybody in the paint.
