Purdue vs.Ohio State - Take Three - Open Thread

A trip to the Big Ten Tournament Finals is on the line.

NCAA Basketball: Big Ten Conference Tournament Quarterfinals - Purdue vs Rutgers Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports

Ohio State is on their fourth game in four days. Brice Sensabaugh is officially out for Ohio State. Purdue is coming off a defeat of nemesis Rutgers that saw great play from Mason Gillis, David Jenkins Jr., and Ethan Morton. Purdue was the team that broke Ohio State earlier in the year after barely escaping with a victory in Columbus. The two teams met later in Mackey and it was more of a walk. Can Purdue beat them for a third time? Will Ohio State have tired legs? We can only hope.
