Maryland at Purdue: GameThread & How to Watch

I feel like we owe a forever debt to Maryland for personally denying Indiana their sixth banner in 2002. Even though it is Christmas Day I don’t want to give them the gift of a win today. We’re going to need all of them that we can get to make the Tournament.
