The No. 14 Ohio State Buckeyes men’s basketball team is heading into its toughest contest of the year as they face the No. 3 Purdue Boilermakers in West Lafayette, Ind., tonight.
Bragging rights are on the line, too, as the Boilermakers sit atop the conference standings with a perfect 12-0 conference record. Ohio State is just behind—their lone loss to Penn State is the only blemish on an 11-1 conference record. After the Boilermakers face Ohio State tonight, they head to East Lansing, Mich., to battle Michigan State on Saturday. Win the pair, and the championship is all but won for the Boilermakers.
