Purdue Basketball Faces Crisis: Can They Rebound?

0:00On March 2nd, Purdue's basketball team had a tough week with back-to-back losses. They fell at home to Michigan State for the first time in 12 years, then dropped a road game to Ohio State. That dropped the Boerler Makers to 15th in the latest rankings, their lowest spot all season. The Skid has them at five wins and six losses over their last 11 games. They're also just two and four against the top 11 teams so far. What started as a preseason number one pick now feels shaky. Fans and analysts see the big 10 title slipping away with the NCAA tournament bid less certain than before. The early dominance is gone, replaced by real doubts about their momentum heading into March. To bounce back, Purdue needs two wins this week to steady the ship. A top 10 finish and a number 3 seed are still possible if they turn things around fast. The pressure is on, but the talent remains. Watch how they respond starting now.
