How to watch Rutgers vs No. 18 Purdue: Live stream info, preview for tonight's Big Ten matchup
The college hoops excitement continues on Peacock tonight with three men's match ups: Rutgers vs Purdue at 7 PM ET, Villanova vs Georgetown at 8 PM ET, and Nebraska vs Ohio State at 9 PM ET. See below for details on how to live stream each game, along with additional information on how you can keep up with all of the Big Ten college basketball action this season. The Scarlet Knights and Boilermakers will meet tonight for the 24th all-time matchup between the two schools. Rutgers has won the last four meetings, most recently defeating Purdue 68-50 on January 9. RELATED: Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs. No. 18 Purdue Boilermakers Prediction - Odds, Expert Picks, Betting Trends, Stats Rutgers is coming off a heartbreaking 84-82 loss to Michigan on Thursday night. The Scarlet Knights were up by 12 with less than 12 minutes left in the game, but were unable to hold on to the lead. Senior guard Nimari Burnett nailed a buzzer-beating three-pointer to give Michigan the win. 'It's just frustrating when you play that hard and play that well and play that together, you want great things to happen for these guys,' said Rutgers head coach Steve Pikiell after the loss. 'To lose like that is unbelievable.' Rutgers has not yet clinched a spot in the Big Ten tournament, but the team can secure one with either a win tonight or with losses from either USC on Wednesday or Iowa on Thursday. The Boilermakers are coming off a 76-66 win against UCLA last Friday at home, snapping the team's four-game losing streak. Junior forward Trey Kaufman-Renn led the way with 29 points, while junior guard Braden Smith added 23 points and 8 assists, setting the Boilermakers' career assists record with 696. Smith is now just four assists shy of becoming the first player in NCAA history to have at least 1,250 points, 700 assists and 500 rebounds by the end of his junior season. With sights still set on securing one of the top four spots for a double bye in the conference tournament, Purdue enters tonight's matchup in a three-way tie for third place with Maryland and Wisconsin. However, tiebreakers for these teams have yet to be determined and won't be calculated until the regular season concludes.

No. 15 Michigan beats Rutgers 84-82 on Burnett's 3-pointer at buzzer, moves into 1st-place tie
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Nimari Burnett made a long 3-pointer at the buzzer, lifting No. 15 Michigan to an 84-82 win over Rutgers on Thursday night and into a first-place tie in the Big Ten with rival Michigan State. The Wolverines (22-6, 14-3 Big Ten) rallied after trailing by 12 in the second half. The Scarlet Knights (14-15, 7-11) went ahead with 12.2 seconds left when Tyson Acuff made two free throws after being fouled on a 3-pointer, but they couldn't make one last stop. Rutgers, which led by 13 in a 106-point first half, was ahead 74-62 midway through the second. Michigan went on a 14-2 run to tie it with 4:33 left and made enough shots and stops to win. Vladislav Goldin had 22 points and 11 rebounds, Burnett finished with 20 points, Will Tschetter scored 16 and Danny Wolf added 10 points and eight rebounds for the Wolverines. Rutgers freshman Lathan Sommerville scored 10 of his season-high 17 points in the second half when the highly touted players in his class, Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey, cooled off. Harper finished with 17 points and Bailey had 13 after both scored 11 in the first half, helping their team score 57 points in 20 minutes. Takeaways Rutgers: Steve Pikiell has his highest-scoring team in nine seasons at the school, but the Scarlet Knights are not playing the type of defense they usually have under their coach. Michigan: The Wolverines made just five shots beyond the arc for the third straight game, attempting 20-plus each time. Key moment Burnett's 3-pointer from deep on the left wing won the game just before time expired. Key stat Rutgers shot 68% in the first half. Up next Michigan hosts Illinois on Sunday, and Rutgers visits No. 20 Purdue on Tuesday night.
