Indiana heads into a very important stretch of games as a team teetering on the bubble of the NCAA Tournament. They’ve been generally better as of late, winning five out of six, including a big win over No. 12 Purdue, before dropping a 71-51 decision on the road to No. 8 Illinois. In the game against the Illini, it was Lamar Wilkerson leading the way in scoring with 21, with Tucker DeVries adding 13 and Sam Alexis scoring 11. The bench scored just five points in 31 minutes.
As the preseason No. 1 team in the AP Polls, Purdue shot out of the gate hot, winning 17 of their first 18 games, before a rough stretch where they lost three in a row. Since then, the Boilermakers have won three out of four, including a nice win at No. 7 Nebraska, with their lone blemish being a 91-80 loss to No. 1 Michigan. Purdue got big games from Trey Kaufmann-Renn (27 points, 12 rebounds) and Braden Smith (20 points, 6 assists, 4 steals), but they shot just 39.1% as a team (30.8% from outside the arc), leading to defeat.
This is a great college basketball matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
