1. Purdue has won the last six games against Iowa in Mackey Arena. Iowa's last win there was in 2006.

2. Purdue is 58-21 against Iowa in West Lafayette. Iowa is 50-26 against Purdue in Iowa City.

3. The Boilermakers' leading scorer is sophomore guard Kendall Stephens. His father, Everette Stephens, made 44.7 percent of his 3-pointers (and scored 1,044 points) at Purdue. Kendall is averaging 42.1 percent from 3-point range this season. The elder Stephens is in the Purdue Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame.

4. Alas, Kendall reinjured a finger in Purdue's 66-57 loss at Illinois Wednesday and missed the game's final 26 minutes.

5. Between 2007-08 and 2011-12. Purdue's Big Ten record under Matt Painter was 64-26. Since then, it's 16-26.

9. Iowa isn't the only college basketball team with two players (Peter Jok and Dom Uhl) who have last names consisting of three letters. OK, that's not true. Drexel has Damion Lee and Mohamed Bah. San Diego has Johnny Dee and Jito Kok. There are probably others, but this is already absurd.
