Gold confetti fell from the Mackey Arena rafters as Purdue celebrated its conference-best 26th title.
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Zach Edey had 32 points and 11 rebounds, Braden Smith added 23 points and nine boards, and No. 2 Purdue beat Michigan State 80-74 on Saturday night to clinch a share of the Big Ten regular-season championship.
With a win in either of their final two games, the Boilermakers would claim their second straight outright regular-season crown. The last Big Ten team to win back-to-back outright regular-season titles was Ohio State in 2006 and 2007. Michigan State shot just 39% and has lost three straight. Tyson Walker had 14 points and seven rebounds, Jaden Akins scored 13, Malik Hall added 12 and Xavier Booker 11.
