First piece in what appears to be a series about "under-the-radar" college basketball rivalries on Grantland.
Here's an excerpt at the end that I found particularly amusing:
"The Boilermakers beat the Hoosiers 83-67 on Wednesday night, as Purdue's strategy of playing great defense and having tall players proved better than IU's strategy of playing shitty defense and having short players. Purdue owns the bragging rights. For now."
I thought it was a pretty good summary of the rivalry, especially for outsiders. Plus I've always enjoyed Titus' work.
