Returning home to face archrival Indiana might be what Purdue needs to bounce back from its latest Big Ten defeat.
The 14th-ranked Boilermakers look to remain undefeated at Mackey Arena and extend the Hoosiers’ road losing streak to 14 on Tuesday night.
Though Purdue (18-5, 7-3) shot 47.9 percent and overcame an eight-point halftime deficit, it fell 66-59 at No. 13 Wisconsin last Tuesday.
The Boilermakers have had a week to learn from their fourth straight road loss and prepare for Indiana (12-12, 3-8), which has not won away from home since beating Penn State 67-61 on Jan. 21, 2010.

Allowing 58.0 points per game while going 12-0 at Mackey Arena, Purdue has won three straight at home versus Indiana by an average of 15.4 points. The Hoosiers last won in West Lafayette, 70-59 on March 1, 2006.
Purdue coach Matt Painter hopes his squad can continue that success over the Hoosiers by trying to build on its solid second-half effort at Wisconsin. The Boilermakers and Badgers are tied for second in the Big Ten behind undefeated and top-ranked Ohio State.
“Our guys really came out and played with some life, played with some energy,” Painter said.
JaJuan Johnson scored 23 points and E’Twaun Moore added 15 against the Badgers. The star inside-outside duo averages a combined 38.2 points, with the 6-foot-10 Johnson averaging 24.1 over his last seven games.
Moore scored 21 in a 74-55 home win over Indiana in the teams’ last meeting March 3. Set to make a school-record 126th start Tuesday, Moore has totaled 47 points on 18-of-31 shooting in two career home games against the Hoosiers.
“They are both outstanding senior leaders,” coach Tom Crean told Indiana’s official website. “Moore is a player that can get the crowd going very quickly with his shooting. Johnson is playing in the present as well as any senior player in the country.”
Despite the Hoosiers’ road struggles at Purdue and overall, they have not played like a team tied for last in the Big Ten of late.
Over the last four games, Indiana beat then-No. 20 Illinois and then-No. 18 Minnesota at home and fell in overtime at previously ranked Michigan State before failing to secure a 10-point lead in Saturday’s 64-63 home loss to Iowa.
“We are coming off of four straight games that were decided on the final play,” Crean said. “I think we have shown great resolve, regardless of the outcome, to recognize that each game following takes on a greater importance and the focus has to be on our ability to come out with the proper mindset.”
The Hoosiers have stepped up on the defensive end during that four-game span, holding opponents to 63.5 points on 39.5 percent shooting.
Crean hopes his squad can remain stingy while trying to snap a 23-game road losing streak against Top 25 opponents since a 77-66 win over No. 13 Iowa on Jan. 13, 2002.
Indiana guard Jordan Hulls matched a career high with 24 points Saturday. The sophomore, averaging 16.8 points on 49.0 percent shooting over the last four contests, combined for 14 points in two games versus Purdue last season.
