Open Thread - Sunday Boilermaker Fans

Submitted by Mike Damone on January 27th, 2019 at 12:08 PM

Purdue is not the team they have been over the past couple of years.  But the Boilermakers can be tough at home.  Was at Mackey Arena once - fun place to watch a game, because even in the seats higher up in the stands, seems like you are close to the floor.  But it feels like all 14,000 screaming fans are right on top of you - very tough for the visiting team.  ESPN described it once as a "concrete dungeon of noise".

Sparty has been on a roll - hoping that ends today.  Would be very sweet to see them lose at Purdue the same weekend we won at IU, and have both of us with one BIG road loss.

Light em up, Carsen Edwards!

 Michigan State sure won a lot of regular season conference games in a row. How did they fare in the Big Ten tournament last year?  How many wins did miles bridges and jaren Jackson have against Michigan?

izzo at the post game press conference "well, we shut down their best player but they had a bunch of weird guys making ridiculous shots.  then their horrible free throw shooter starts making them.  what can you do?"
