Newsflash, Ohio State had a bad day in West Lafayette — again.
While I — and probably most of Buckeye Nation — am still in the process of repressing, or even attempting to erase, the memory of the gridiron beatdown Purdue put on the Ohio State football team back in the fall, I couldn’t help but have those memories flood back into my mind again; this time around, it revolved around the hardwood.
Thanks to Indiana’s upset earlier on Saturday over No. 6 Michigan State, Matt Painter’s Purdue Boilermakers control their own destiny in the Big Ten, and they showed their urgency to play well (and win) on Saturday.
