The Ohio State basketball team suffered a crippling loss at home to the Purdue Boilermakers after they led most of the game.

The Ohio State basketball team started off their game against Purdue on fire from the three-point line. In fact, they shot 40% from deep for the entire game. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to beat Purdue as they fell 67-65 after the Boilermakers made a game-winning three with 5 seconds left.
