Sorry...this take just doesn't hold up. PU got boat raced by scUM...barely got by Maryland at home by one...hell Nicholls St. put up 90 on them.I've said before this team is not matchup proof. I feel you need to be matchup proof to make noise in the tourney. The reason Purdue is still the B10's best shot is they can somewhat say they are matchup proof -- they can truly bang with anyone.
If you can't withstand matchup problems then you are basically just hoping for a good draw.
They are propped up by a super efficient offense. If the shots don't fall for them...they are in trouble because they aren't as solid on D.
We seem to stop competing for stretches in the last few games. We've all seen what this team can do when it defends and rebounds. You simply are not going to win on the road in the B1G if you don't defend and rebound. We did neither for most of this game.
Next practice ain't gonna be easy.
