🏀 It was a big night for Rutgers men's basketball team as they downed No. 1 Purdue, again. This time it was a one-point thriller.
Paul Mulcahy finished with 16 points, eight rebounds and six assists to lead the Scarlet Knights. Spencer scored 14, Clifford Omoruyi added 12 points and together Rutgers' suffocating defense held the high-scoring Boilermakers largely in check.
“I just thought at the end of the day, Rutgers was mentally and physically tougher, even if we had won the game," Purdue coach Matt Painter said. “I thought we could have if we had gotten a stop or two there.
But after calling timeout Rutgers coach Steve Pikiell wanted Spencer taking the shot, something Purdue initially defended.
