After blowing a 16-point lead in their last outing against Ohio State, No. 11 Purdue (16-5, 8-2) came into their home building with bad intent, and the Wolverines were their victims. The Boilermakers jumped to a 13-2 lead to start the game and never looked back, delivering a 91-64 beatdown of No. 21 Michigan (14-5, 6-2) on Friday night.

Almost everything that could go wrong did go wrong for Michigan basketball as the Wolverines trailed by 25 at halftime en route to a rout by Purdue.

After struggling the past few weeks, the Michigan Wolverines had a big opportunity to not only rebound but thrive, going on the road to face No. 11 Purdue. However, Michigan basketball started out flat in West Lafayette, turning the ball over twice early and allowing the Boilermakers to jump out to a 6-0 lead.

Goldin finished with 14 points and Nimari Burnett, Tre Donaldson and Roddy Gayle Jr. all scored 11 apiece for Michigan. The Wolverines shot 37% from the field, finished 6-for-29 from deep, and had more turnovers (22) than made baskets (20).
