The tale of two 7-0 teams couldn’t look much different than this Big Ten opening match-up for the #2 Purdue Boilers and the equally undefeated Iowa Hawkeyes. Both teams have started the season winning their first 7 games of the season behind incredible offensive performances.
The likeness ends there.
Purdue came into the season with a top-10 ranking and Final Four aspirations and an early schedule that was going to challenge them to show they belong with the Bluebloods and best teams in the country. They’ve already handled North Carolina, Villanova, and Florida St.
Iowa’s best opponent before their last second win against a struggling Virginia (5-3) team on Monday was against something called Longwood.
