The Boilermakers move up to No. 12 in Saturday's CBS Sports Top 25 And 1 after steamrolling over the Wolverines

FOX Sports national college basketball writer John Fanta reveals his latest top 25 rankings, with Michigan State and Purdue rising.

After blowing a 16-point lead in their last outing against Ohio State, No. 11 Purdue (16-5, 8-2) came into their home building with bad intent, and the Wolverines were their victims. The Boilermakers jumped to a 13-2 lead to start the game and never looked back, delivering a 91-64 beatdown of No. 21 Michigan (14-5, 6-2) on Friday night.

Almost everything that could go wrong did go wrong for Michigan basketball as the Wolverines trailed by 25 at halftime en route to a rout by Purdue.

Purdue next faces Michigan 7-footers Danny Wolf and Vladislav Goldin, who made the Wolverines a Big Ten championship contender.

After struggling the past few weeks, the Michigan Wolverines had a big opportunity to not only rebound but thrive, going on the road to face No. 11 Purdue. However, Michigan basketball started out flat in West Lafayette, turning the ball over twice early and allowing the Boilermakers to jump out to a 6-0 lead.

While Purdue was carried by center Zach Edey last season, this year's team is far less imposing in the paint and ranks 134th in rebounding rate. Meanwhile, Michigan is 21st in rebounding rate and is anchored by a pair of seven-footers in Vladislav Goldin and Danny Wolf.
