About This Game
Purdue's sharpshooting and rebounding dominance ended NC State's magical Final Four run in a defensive grind at State Farm Stadium. The Wolfpack, riding an improbable postseason dream, matched the Boilermakers' grit but lacked the offensive firepower to keep pace. Purdue's three-point barrage (10 made) overwhelmed NC State's supporting cast (5 made), while the Boilermakers seized control of the boards 42–29—a gap NC State couldn't bridge despite shooting more efficiently overall (16 field goals to 12). The Wolfpack's 37 missed shots told the story of a team that found scoring difficult in the moment that mattered most, held to just 50 points. Though NC State kept turnovers down (11 vs. Purdue's 16), the rebounding and perimeter disadvantages proved insurmountable. Purdue's balanced attack claimed a 13-point victory and a championship game berth.
