Mackey Arena is not the place to be if you're a ranked team.
Just ask Ohio State.
Rapheal Davis scored 20 points, Jon Octeus had 14 and Purdue knocked off the No. 20 Buckeyes 60-58 on Wednesday night in another Big Ten clash that went the Boilermakers' way.
It marked Purdue's third consecutive win over a top-25 team at home following victories over Iowa and Indiana last month.
Davis scored 12 of his 20 points in the second half and Octeus had 10 in the half as the Boilermakers (15-8, 7-3 Big Ten) extended their winning streak to four games overall.
A.J. Hammons added seven points, seven rebounds and seven blocks in the win.
Standout freshman D'Angelo Russell scored 20 points to lead Ohio State (17-6, 6-4), which had a three-game winning streak snapped.
The Buckeyes were coming off back-to-back home wins over nationally ranked Indiana and Maryland. The 80-56 win over then-No. 16 Maryland on Thursday was the largest margin of victory for an unranked Ohio State team over a ranked opponent.
