Pur-don't?

Wrong. Purdue.

Buckeyes looked a bit meek last night. The Boilermakers did what they wanted to for most of the game and won 60-57 with Jon Diebler missing a lame attempt at the buzzer.

Frankly, Ohio State was lucky it was that close. They were down by ten at some points during the game and it seemed like Purdue could run away with it at times.

The good news? Even with a lot of snow on the ground and an early tip (6:30) the fans showed up and produced what may have been the first sellout of the season.

Thad Matta better figure something out because the toughest test of the remaining regular season is this Sunday, noon, at East Lansing.

On a related note, The Ohio State University student newspaper, The Lanter, ran a feature today called 'A Day in the Life of Evan Turner'. Here's the highlight:

In fact, Turner said before this season that the one qualm he had about returning for his junior year was the nightly dose of reading, writing and thinking.

Thinking? Apparently that's optional for NBA players.
