Another week, another No. 1 team comes crashing down.
Top-ranked Purdue is no longer undefeated thanks to a buzzer-beating deep three from Ron Harper Jr., as Rutgers miraculously upset the Boilermakers 70–68 on Thursday.
Purdue's Trevion Williams converted on a layup to give the Boilermakers (8–1 overall, 1–1 Big Ten) a 68–67 lead with :04 seconds remaining in regulation. Then chaos ensued.
Rutgers (5–4, 1–1) forward Mawot Mag inbounded the ball to Ron Harper Jr., who took five dribbles to get just pass half court before he launched the buzzer-beater three that sent the home crowd into a frenzy.
