Rutgers just collapsing in the final minute of this first half.

So another tech call on both Rutgers and Purdue? What's going on today with Big Ten teams.

Agreed yet here we are with a preseason bottom predicted Whisky team in great position to win the league.

He’s having a great year, but I think that’s Johnnie Davis turning into a lottery pick. Maybe that’s on Greg, but I kind of doubt it after watching them last year.

Not many coaches can win without great players. However great players don’t mean wins. I am not sure how he held that locker room together after the media reports this summer

Well, I read that Lando Tucker was basically leasing a hostile takeover. That’s why they punted him and told a lot of players they weren’t welcome back. Who knows, maybe Gard is better than I think. But, last year was brutal.

I agree. I though the media problems would have doomed them. He's done a heck of a job.

Purdue opens half with 9-0 run. 54-36.

PU has blown big leads before

OurMottoisOskeeWowWow · Feb 20, 2022

Looks like Purdue will come out with the W. The hopeful outcome is Purdue loses at Michigan State but then beats Wisconsin. Wisconsin also has to play Rutgers so that could be another potential L for them.

OurMottoisOskeeWowWow · Feb 20, 2022

That last-minute in the first half really blew the momentum for Rutgers.

Navy_illini · Feb 20, 2022

PU is going to be tough for anyone to beat. You need a talk quick guard to stop Ivey from driving. He gets 15 points from free throws. They hit 3s at a good pct. Also if you don’t have a big Edey and Williams will have a big game

Not sure how Wisky beat them before but if Davis goes off for 35 they may have a chance

What are you talking about? They went to the tournament. That qualifies as the bottom falling out? And now they're near the top.

And the year before didn't they win the conference outright?

USC and Washington State tied. 60-60 with 1:57 left.

OurMottoisOskeeWowWow · Feb 20, 2022

Was about to say you'd think you'd call a timeout when you got the ball and there's 20 seconds left.
