The No. 3 Purdue Boilermakers have spent the week regrouping from a loss and will look to get back on track on Saturday when traveling east to face the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Purdue (12-2, 1-2 Big Ten) was clipped by Wisconsin on Monday, falling to the Badgers in a 74-69 loss. The Boilermakers clung onto a seven-point lead midway through the second half but let that slip away as the Badgers surged ahead to pull off the upset. Zach Edey was the most effective offensive weapon for Purdue, dropping 24 points along with 10 rebounds off the bench.

Penn State (7-5, 2-2 Big Ten) has opened the new calendar year with back-to-back conference victories, the latest coming in the form of a 74-70 road victory over Northwestern on Wednesday. The Nittany Lions trailed the Wildcats for a good portion of the action but managed to explode offensively in the final 10 minutes of the game to slip ahead for the win. Seth Lundy buried five threes in the contest and led all scorers with 23 points.
