Purdue 82, Michigan State 81 (OT) Holy Crap!

I started Hammer & Rails 7 years ago this coming week. I can post 1,500 words like it is nothing on most days by now.

I don't have words for this.

Purdue was up 16 at halftime and 18 early the second half. It was rolling and times were good.

Purdue was down 4 with 2 minutes left and looked dead.

Somewhere in between there Michigan State got hot and erased an 18 point lead in about 4.3 seconds, aided by the incredibly rare 6-point possession and the brilliance of Denzel Valentine. Like the Iowa game, things turned against Purdue on both ends of the floor.
