Purdue 71, Northwestern 61 – Business Concluded

Well, it was not pretty. Purdue had an awful stretch in the second half for the fifth time in the last six games, but it was a victory. Some day that is all you can ask for. A.J. Hammons added another double-double and Purdue got a lot more from its guard in Johnny Hill and Ryan Cline, but the biggest difference came at the foul line. Purdue basically got the entire Northwestern front line in foul trouble and paraded to the free throw line during an eight minute stretch where it went without a field goal.
