It’s all been leading up to this. Every game since Wednesday has been in service of getting right here. Purdue started playing on Friday, Penn State on Thursday. Now they meet in the Championship game. This will be the third meeting between these two teams with Purdue coming out victorious in both matchups thus far. It’s similar to the Ohio State matchup in that regard. I know that conventional wisdom says it’s hard to beat the same team three times in one season but I’m not sure the numbers bear that out. Either way, Purdue and Penn State face each other this afternoon with a title on the line.
When: Sunday, March 12th. 3:30 ET.
Where: United Center, Chicago
