3/17 Games

[Illinifan74]

Edey could not get operation elbow to the head going because FDU was too short.

And to be absolutely fair to PU.....now we absolutely know what BU was talking about with Kofi getting absolutely hammered game after game.
Edey is unfair like Kofi...but he gets absolutely sh#t whipped every time he touches the ball.


Edit: "absolutely"

I didn't watch the game, but how was the officiating. I wouldn't be surprised if the stats contradict my next statement, but I believe the Big Ten officials were favorable to PU. I just wonder if this played a role in the loss.

I partially agree...........tonight he didn't get the calls. In the B1G he got the calls far more than Kofi ever did.

Exactly why regular season wins mean squat. You either get it done when it matters or you don’t. There’s no middle.

 

[727ill]

Officiating was fine, FDU literally was leaving Gillis, Furst and Loyer wide open so they could prevent passes to Edey..

 

[WWWWRocU]

So does this loss guarantee that Edey comes back for his final year?

 

[Boomauer]

Too bad we didn't pull Iowa State in our first game. FG-23%.... 3PTFG-9%....FT-57%

 

[FloridaMan]

Did Matt Mayer hook the FDU coach up with like 100 Monster drinks? That dude is a fast talker! LOL

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

This game is a perfect example of why having guards who can take care of the ball gives you a chance in any game

Or how guards that can't handle the ball can just ruin you. Purdue handling pressure has been abysmal for weeks. Once it got on tape... well, we saw what happens.

 

[IllinoisssssssVarsity]

Angriest school in the country right now is UMBC lol

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

Now that Purdue is out, Penn State will win it all because of course they will.

 

[IlliniShelt]

Purdue has lost consecutive tourney games to a 15 and 16 seeds. We'll probably never see that again.

 

[oldman]

Farleigh Dickinson’s Wikipedia page has already been amended to show the victory over Purdue.

 

[roger murdock]

Welp…. I’m all in with Penn State now.

 

[foby]

I guess there were 30 perfect brackets earlier this evening. I set the over/under at 1 now.

 

[skyIdub]

You spelled Fairleigh Dickinson wrong.

 

[InDaAZ]

Purdue's last two NCAA tournament games:
- loss to No. 15 seed Saint Peter's
- loss to No. 16 seed Fairleigh Dickinson

Purdidn’t

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Welp…. I’m all in with Penn State now.

I'm really all in with UCLA (since we beat them), but PSU is a close second

Said bracket owner...

 

[Dragons89]

Big Ten teams are pushed up like they are so good and then come out and play not to lose. That is exactly how you lose. You have to play hungry every game. Bring it or go home!

I call it death by paper cuts - 1 paper cut not a foul - its just a hard hand-check, a swipe that hits the arm, a little push, bump, hack, nudge, small grab, .... , 100 paper cuts by 8 minutes into game is not a foul yet but other team is not allowed to play gets frustrated and affects all aspects of game, 500+ paper cuts during the course of a game = death. of the tourny games I've watched its in top 3 of most physicality allowed

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

Edey has been like that in close games all year. He does not want the ball. Very strange.

The whole Purdue team looked scared to take a shot in the last 10 minutes. They froze!

 

[FortWayneFan]

Is that FDU coach weird or is it just me?

 

[Battle89]

You spelled Fairleigh Dickinson wrong.

Will be the first team to win seven on the way to the title.
