Game Wrap: Purdue 48, Indiana 46

The Purdue Boilermakers came into Mackey as one of the hottest teams in the country, winners of 9 of their last 10, and sitting on top of the Big Ten standings.

IU was playing host on a tail slide, losers of 10 of their last 11 games.

But rivalries don’t like to listen to records and Purdue was coming to Assembly Hall on a two-game winning streak against IU, notable because out of the 207 games played between the two schools, Purdue has never won three games in a row in Assembly Hall.

So, naturally, with two of the most storied programs in the most storied state of basketball going in opposite directions, this game came down to the very last seconds when Matt Haarms tipped in of Carsen Edwards’ 20th missed shot of the night with 3 seconds left in the game for a 48-46 win for Purdue, giving the Boilers their first three game winning streak in Assembly Hall.
