GAME THREAD: MBB vs #1 Purdue
Surprised not to see one here so what the heck….
Tipoff at 9:00pm Eastern or thereabouts. FOX Sports 1.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:07 PM ^
Yeah, the ticker says tip-off is 9:12. I don't know if we'll see it all, though. This Sparty nonsense may be going into OT.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:08 PM ^
Sparty playing Pump It Up is just wrong.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:12 PM ^
Kind of like anyone but PSU football playing Seven Nation Army?
January 26th, 2023 at 10:06 PM ^
Sparties probably think the title is "Punk It Up".
January 26th, 2023 at 9:09 PM ^
That out of timeout play was a thing of beauty by Iowa, too bad it didn’t go down.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:11 PM ^
Of course Iowa would miss two wide open threes against Staee. They would’ve nailed those against Michigan.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:12 PM ^
The third shot, a desperation chuck would have gone in against us too.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:12 PM ^
Williams is going to have to show something extra tonight without Jett if we hope to win
January 26th, 2023 at 9:13 PM ^
Seems like a lot of energy in Crisler tonight!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:14 PM ^
Soooo... just have Dickinson and Eady play to 21?
January 26th, 2023 at 9:14 PM ^
Gotta make a lot of shots.
Now, stop Edey.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:15 PM ^
Horseshit
January 26th, 2023 at 9:16 PM ^
Bullshit call. Waited until the shot missed before the whistle
January 26th, 2023 at 9:16 PM ^
I do so enjoy a fierce rivalry that isn't crazy angry.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:16 PM ^
Hell of move by Hunter.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:17 PM ^
Big Dick with a good start!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:17 PM ^
HD is dialed in. I like dialed-in HD.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:19 PM ^
Zone looks better so far.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:19 PM ^
So far great attack drives setup by hesitation & triple threat by TWill, Kobe & Hunter.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:19 PM ^
Let's get the Boilermakers in foul trouble!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:19 PM ^
If we keep up this defense we have a shot.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:34 PM ^
They did not.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:19 PM ^
Stream link? Mgocrazy not up. :(
January 26th, 2023 at 9:20 PM ^
How does Purdue keep upgrading in Frankenstein looking big men?
7’1 Hammons > 7’2 Haas > 7’3 > Haarms > 8 ft Edey
They also had Biggie Swannigan in the mix too. Still no Final Fours though
January 26th, 2023 at 9:24 PM ^
and Joe Barry Carroll and Brad Miller too
Final Fours in 1969 and 1980
January 26th, 2023 at 9:20 PM ^
They have to call that Edey chicken wing
January 26th, 2023 at 9:21 PM ^
Great start!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:23 PM ^
You can say that again!!!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:21 PM ^
Great start!
So great it posted twice.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:21 PM ^
HD gets a triple double tonight with blocks. Calling my shot now.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:21 PM ^
Good first frame
January 26th, 2023 at 9:22 PM ^
I love the sound of Raff. Raff is the sound of tournament basketball.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:22 PM ^
Good start. Hopefully the second unit can keep it up. Reed vs. Cyclops will be interesting.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:22 PM ^
Well we won the first segment. Now to win the next.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:23 PM ^
Good start, key will be for us to stay connected when the subs enter, as it looks like our starters match up pretty well with theirs.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:23 PM ^
Only mistakes so far is going to the two-three zone and a forced Hunter three right after. Our defense has been fine other than Hunter kind of leaning too far to one side of Eddy’s body allowing him to spin to the basket. Also, Dug makes his lane trips way too difficult, he blew by the defender and then put unnecessary English on the layup. His size is in his head.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:23 PM ^
4 team fouls on Purdue already! We're already about to shoot free throws #6 and #7 after the timeout. This is a good recipe for taking down the number 1 team in the nation!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:25 PM ^
Yea but uh...making them.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:26 PM ^
Does Purdue go “Hack-a-Reed
January 26th, 2023 at 9:26 PM ^
6/7 so far!
January 26th, 2023 at 9:24 PM ^
We are finally getting fouls called in our favor.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:25 PM ^
No doubt Hunter has an edge tonight
January 26th, 2023 at 9:26 PM ^
Reed can't waste fouls on plays like that.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:27 PM ^
Or that
January 26th, 2023 at 9:27 PM ^
Those Reed fouls are simply dumb.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:27 PM ^
Bad sequence there for Reed Jr.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:27 PM ^
Dug gets beat so often off the dribble.
January 26th, 2023 at 9:28 PM ^
Sirmons is the only good ref on this crew. Kimble is okay and Breeding is terrible.
