Ohio State took down No. 2 Purdue 73–69 on Sunday after leading the majority of the second half.
The massive Big Ten upset came just five days after the Buckeyes fired coach Chris Holtmann as the team started the season 14–11. Holtmann had led Ohio State since the beginning of the 2017–18 season. The Buckeyes never made it past the second round of the NCAA tournament under Holtmann’s leadership.
Sunday marked interim coach Jake Diebler’s first game in this position, making him 1-0 with an extremely impressive debut victory.
