Purdue basketball led by 16 points in the first half, but Ohio State's 3-point shooting heated up as it won to snap the Boilermaker's winning streak.

Not because Purdue basketball lost Tuesday night, an unexpected albeit realistic outcome. But because the Boilermakers have another game this week against another team capable of beating them. One of Purdue's lesser talked about quality traits during its Final Four season a year ago was learning as much from the wins as it did the losses.
