Purdue getting all they can handle. That's quite the job down at UALR with all those transfers, to dominate the Sun Belt and making some noise in the tourney.

Purdue's last 13 minutes of 2016 basketball rank among the worst 13 I've ever seen in my life. And I didn't miss a minute of Illinois hoops this year

Purdue lost in a way that was very similar to last year, blowing a late lead by trying to kill time, and going to OT when they should have won in regulation. Also, I had them in the elite eight :doh:

Broadly speaking, Big XII defense is non-existent. I watch a fair number of XII games due to an Iowa St alum in the family. Its up and down and flashy, but not tournament basketball. Shocks them when they get to the bracket and those pesky other teams play D

I suspected the Big XII was overrated and, yes, it is / was. 3 teams with higher seeds already knocked out. Self is a fantastic coach and his championship streak is incredible, but he could never do that in the B1G. No way.

I'd love for Whitman to put the full court press on Greg Marshall, my goodness can he coach. Also, how impressive did Indiana look? Wow!
