Purdue wins their 17th straight game of the season. They stay undefeated in the B10 and avoid a major upset at the start of Rivalry Week.
This group of seniors has had success in Assembly Hall, but having won 2 of the last 3 was of no comfort to them as they struggled to find their perimeter shot and trailed for large parts of this game.
Down 10-2 early in the game, Assembly Hall shook with rivalry week rage, and P.J. Thompson (4 pts, 2 asts, and 3 stls) looked over to Coach Painter as he dribbled the ball up the court.
