Number 6 Purdue went on the road and used their bullseye game or “triple time” to make the Hawkeyes be quiet. They beat the Hawkeyes in West Lafayette on December 3 77-70, and now you can ad Iowa City to their resume. It was also the return of JI, who scored 15 points, and who had been battling a hip injury. The Boilermakers held the Hawkeyes to 73 points, while scoring 83 themselves. They were on fire from the triple time area. Isiah Thompson made four from the triple time area, while Sasha Stefanovic, the Serbian assassin, made three himself. Up next for the Boilers is a date with Brutus Buckeye on Sunday. The Boilers are a half game behind the Buckeyes in the Big Ten standings.
