Purdue University's men's basketball team paid Valparaiso University to play a guarantee game but fell to the Beacons in double overtime, according to a report by the Indianapolis Star.
The Boilermakers, a Big Ten program, scheduled the matchup as a home game and compensated the Missouri Valley Conference opponent. Valparaiso upset Purdue after two extra periods, handing the Boilermakers an early-season loss.
Details on the financial terms of the guarantee and the final score were not immediately disclosed.
