I expected Arizona to win by 20

Purdue’s going to win this game. Arizona does not shoot many threes. Purdue does. If they make a reasonable percentage, the math won’t work for Arizona.

Purdue has been rolling since the start of the Big 10 tournament. Purdue lost 4 home games and now they too are on the verge of knocking out the most talented team in the tournament.

In the first 4 minutes of the game, Iowa scored 12 points and led 12-2.

In the last 36 minutes of the game, Iowa scored 47 points and Illinois won the stretch 69-47.

This Purdue-Arizona game is wild. TKR is effectively unplayable, yet Purdue leads.

If you want Illinois to win a national title I think Arizona losing makes it easier

He is a jag. Dirty player imo. If you watched the last play the other day he clearly pushed the player in the back for offensive rebound and game winning shot.
Pushes all the time.

Does Braden Smith have an overly dramatic ankle injury every game?

Jesus scary Krivas fall. His head bounced off the floor.

He asked the monkey paw for great hands, in exchange he received paper ankles.

Was underwhelmed with Cluff this season but he came to play vs. the AZ NBA bigs so far.

I'm very much rooting for Purdue. I'm just a B1G fanboy in the tournament.

ImGonnaBeILL · Mar 28, 2026

Kudos to Purdue effort today through 25 minutes.

The talent disparity is enormous.

Painter is a good coach

Piotyr · Mar 28, 2026

5 missed free throws in the last 2 minutes in this game.

Illini missed 3 free throws all game.
