Ah. Is there anything better than IU vs. Purdue? A true rivalry. A state made for basketball. The purest of sports in the place where it is purest.
Of course, competitiveness would certainly add to the mystique. I guess the games have been close. There was the Haarms tip-in for instance for a Purdue win at Assembly. Something Purdue has done a lot lately. Win at IU that is, like they’ll be asked to do tonight, like they did throughout the entire Archie Miller tenure.
But what does 9 straight wins in a rivalry really mean anyways?
