The decision to double the post after half was one of the worst coaching decisions you’ll ever see. Allowed Purdue’s shooters to get going and lost you the game. Awful garbage from this staff.
Purdue 77, Illinois 71 Postgame
Does that pretty much lock us in for a 4 seed?
They rose up to an entirely different level that second half. Where was TJ all night?

Beat the snot out of Iowa and take out the frustration of this striped crew following B10 office directions. Sick and tired of Edey being able to pull the same crap every game. Camp in the lane, go over the back, chicken wing

Christ I !!!!ing hate Purdue. Can’t wait to see them piss themselves again in the tournament
Just stick to the lineup that was most effective it’s not rocket science
Gonna be a happy St. Patrick’s Day when we win the third one. Can’t wait.
We played well, they hit an unreal amount of 3s and that doesn’t happen most games.
That being said, I fail to see what Goode is bringing on offense at the end of the game that makes up for not having Rogers or Quincy on the floor to help with defense/rebounding.

Get a damn loose ball… that sucked
Haven't guarded the three point line all year and our AA didn't really show up. We can't win games in the 70's, which will ultimately wll be the seasons demise.

Screw Purdue. I hope they lose in the first round again.
Purdue goes nuclear from 3 in the 2nd half ... They get a ridiculous tip and Smith hits a beyond NBA range 3 with TJ hand in his face ...
Tip your cap and move on from this one ... One cannot turn into two losses ... Beat Iowa ...

I thought the loss to Maryland, or northwestern, or Penn State etc was supposed to do that...
This team is what it is. Fun but flawed.

Two bounces went Purdue's way in last 2 minutes, which led to 3's. That was the scoreboard difference. Get those two rebounds, who knows how the game ends. Still a high quality game though.
Big game on Sunday, as Iowa is looking to get on the right side of bubble. Let's knock them out.

I kinda just tip my hat to Purdue here. No biggie. We’re really good & it feels like special things are coming our way this month.

Heartbreak.
Good news is we hung with a #1 seed in a way that means this team can make it to the Sweet Sixteen.
Bad news is we might have just watched how we lose there.

Bad move to come out in the second half doubling Edey. Let them get going on threes.
