Every season has a turning point. For Purdue this year, it came on January 8th in East Lansing. We talk about how the Boilers let games at Maryland and Minnesota in the last two weeks slip away, and there is no doubt we let those slip away. On Janaury 8th, Purdue absolutely stole a win.
Purdue led at 8-7 with 13:17 left in the first half before Josh Langford scored on a jumper, starting a 13-0 Spartan run. Langford would score 54 seconds into the second half and push the Michigan State lead to 17.
