Purdue basketball saw another surge in this week’s AP Top 25 poll, moving up seven spots from 17th to 11th. The jump comes after the Boilermakers went 2-0 against the two new Pacific Northwest teams in the conference, beating Washington and former No. 13 Oregon on the road.
Matt Painter and company extended their winning streak to seven since losing back-to-back games to Texas A&M and Auburn before Christmas.
