Game Thread: Illinois at Purdue

Here's a pic of Beef House rolls to ease the pain...

Needs strawberry jam.

Tough to play booty ball and get open looks from kick outs for 3 when Tys man is not guarding him and helping out on others.

Great minds think alike.

Yeah @pruman91 , idiots gotta idiot.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Radio said 5 of their 7 threes have come off their offensive rebounds. Big advantage in the game.

This is the whole game right here

Purdue D strategy is so smart in how they’re guarding Rodger’s. Really surprised other teams haven’t done the same. Bogged down the entire offense at the start.

Exactly why we need Dra to get his feet underneath him. Gotta have a threat in there and let Ty focus more on D and rebounding.

TY WYD!?!

Robbie Hummel with an accurate assessment at halftime.

 

[Bigtex]

Rodgers can’t play in this game

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Meh, I wasn’t as discouraged as others … we can get back in this. But we have to shoot well AND defend the three better. Let’s do this!

 

[HailtotheChief]

Ty has to sit for Harmon

 

[JSpence]

Eh, it's pretty simple- Purdue is playing really well with a lot of energy, and the 3 things they do really well in rebounding, getting 2nd chance opportunities, and shooting the three they've been going off, and to be fair, we're helping them. So far, outside of Guerrier, it's been a rough night for us.

You're right, though I'll add that Coleman has actually been good on Edey. There just wasn't a payoff in rebounds.

 

[punchabove33]

How is not a foul?

 

[Illinifan55]

Ty gets tackled in the lane... and a travel is called. Home-cooking.

 

[New Creation]

ty just will not shoot the ball..

 

[Flyin' Illini]

We keep kicking the ball out to Ty wide open on the side, but what good does that do?

 

[InDaAZ]

I’m starting to dislike this Renn character…

 

[blife]

I love Ty but this is a team that is a really bad match up for him. He can't get to the rim and is not giving us much on offense at all

 

[KingWolf11]

I mean Ty can't even as much look at the hoop when he is uncovered this is going to be a huge issue.

 

[Braveheart]

ESPN has 25-18?

Yahoo had it at 24-13

 

[Illini in Italy]

beautiful. i'm hungry now.

PISSED and hungry

 

[JSpence]

Damn, this is a knockout.

 

[skyIdub]

Just not playing hard enough.

 

[Rusty]

Well the beers definitely seem to go quicker with a game like this...lol...wonder why

 

[jimbo72]

Wow,not even guarding Ty Rodgers.

Edey was camped in the lane for 8 seconds. I counted
