Finally, Purdue has a win in the Crossroads Classic.
Finally, Purdue has beaten Notre Dame for the first time in over 50 years.
Finally, Purdue has a quality non-conference win over a ranked team. That all three happened at the same time? Even better!
It sure did not look like it would go this way at halftime. V.J. Beachem treated Carsen Edwards like a matador on his way to a vicious dunk, and that was one of many plays where Purdue looked awful defensively. They led by as many as 17 in the first half and 52-38 at halftime.
