#1 Purdue would go into Columbus the favorite to get upset in the second round instead they would go down in the first round to #16 FDU, 63-58, just the second time ever a one seed lost to a sixteen.

FDU's Coach Tobin Anderson, made good on his statement. He said the more he watched Purdue the more he thought his team could beat them. It was impossible, a miracle, it was March Madness, and FDU is this year's Cinderella story.

Purdue's Zach Edey had 21 points and 15 rebounds, but he couldn't make up for a 19 of 53 shooting performance from the floor including a 5 of 26 showing from three.

He was one of three Boilers in double-figures, but for a team that started 13-0 and 22-1 and spent seven weeks as the top-ranked team, they proved to be the team that struggled late in the year, losing 4 of 6 at one point despite winning the Big Ten by three games.

Matt Painter's resume and legacy will be questioned. This is another disappointing March finish after failing to get out of the Sweet 16 last year, losing to #15 seeded St. Peter's in Philadelphia.

Now all the doubts about Purdue's young guards, their lack of athleticism, and winning in the post look to be prophetic.

FDU's quick, assertive guards and roster brought it to Purdue from the start and never wavered.

After Purdue appeared to take control of the second half, going up 5, FDU responded.

Sean Moore had 19 points and a key block late. Demetre Roberts had 12 and Cameron Tweedy went 5 of 6 from the field.

For Purdue, a promising upstart of a season ends in complete heartbreak, falling to Cinderella and striking Midnight on their season instead.

David vs. Goliath in the NCAA Tournament as the nation's shortest team takes on 7-4 Zach Edey and the Boilermakers.

Early, the size disparity worked in FDU's favor with Sean Moore driving and finishing over Zach Edey to give FDU a 2-0 lead. Moore is a foot shorter than Edey, but is the assignment for Edey to start the game defensively.

Purdue's Braden Smith responded with a pull-up jumper from mid-range off a pick and roll.

Sean Moore then used the space Edey gave him on the perimeter to get a three-pointer to fall, giving FDU the 5-2 early lead, but FDU's defense showed its first cracks.

They came into the game with one of the worst defenses in the country by efficiency metrics.

FDU went into the under 16 media timeout with a 39-36 lead.

With the shot clock expiring, Tweedy twisted into a mid-range look and got it to go to extend FDU’s lead to five.

While Purdue’s defense halted FDU from pushing the advantage, Purdue’s shots went dry. They couldn’t get Edey a look inside, and instead, Purdue missed three after three after three.

At 3:07, both teams went to the bench for the final media timeout. Purdue was 4 of 23 from three and 18 of 48 from the field.
