Nice. Next?
Perhaps we did but, since the weave discussion started here I’ve noticed several other teams employing the weave in various ways to get an offense started.Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but it seemed like we played a lot less of the weave tonight -- a lot less windshield-wiper action around the perimeter.
The after game announcers said it was an all time low for Purdue!The career high tonight was......................PURDUE, with a season LOW in points. Bout time the shoe is on one of our feet for a career high, nice stops ILLINI!

HAVE TO WIN IN MADISON. Streak has to end.Wow holding them to 37 is amazing. Play this way against the cheese heads.
This is what happens when you come out from the opening the tip with the right attitude. You could smell it in the first minute.
Let’s not get crazy. Lol.
Purdue isn’t very good.
End of the day, it’s just a home win we had to have. But it really seemed like BU made some significant adjustments (TF ball handling, spread offense, etc)... hopefully they stick and continue to work.
We still need to find three road wins (IMO), so @ Wisconsin is a great candidate.
Lastly, I thought Alan played solid defense in addition to his great offensive game. I think THAT combined effort should get him 25+ minutes going forward.
I actually think Alan got beat quite a few times on defense. Don't get me wrong, he had a great game and I'm not trying to pick on him. Just saying that's why I think he only played 20 minutes. He got pinned down low by Eastern a few times and got caught up in screens a couple times as well. Luckily, Purdue forgot how to put the ball through the hoop tonight.
Seemed like AD and TF weren't on the court together as much tonight. Ball movement was the best I've seen all year. Made the D work harder than we usually do and actually created some easy shots for ourselves. Here's to the turning of the fabled and elusive corner.
One of the guys on FS1 said he could see us playing into the second week of the tournament after the game lol. It’s not just fans.We just did to Purdue what MSU did to us. What a ridiculous league.
also please let me lead the overreactions: to the final four we go!!!!
I was trying to pay attention, but not 100% sure... But it seems they only run that when there is 1 big on the floor?Also, man we looked good when we ran spread today
