No. 1 Purdue (Men) pounded by No. 10 Iowa State in historic home loss
Milan Momcilovic scored 20 points and Iowa State sank 11 3-pointers to propel the No. 10 Cyclones to a dominant 81-58 win over No. 1 Purdue on Saturday.
Momcilovic, Killyan Toure and Joshua Jefferson all hit three 3-pointers. Toure scored 13, Blake Buchanan 12, and Jefferson 11 for the Cyclones (9-0). Iowa State shot 59% in the second half.
Purdue's 23-point defeat is the largest nonconference home loss by a No. 1 team in AP poll history, according to ESPN Research, and is tied for the largest home loss ever by a No. 1 team.
"We played our absolute best," Cyclones coach T.J. Otzelberger said. "When you play an elite competitor and tremendous program and have the respect we have for the program, you know it's going to take your best, and we were fortunate enough to do that. We made enough shots and made enough plays."
