Week of 11/17 Games Thread

[derrick6]

A giant just entered the game

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

TTU just missing wide open threes. Purdue doubling toppin every touch.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Central Connecticut now with wins over two P4 teams, the other boston college.

Texas Tech win likely not ending up as great as we thought. At least not top 10 good. Likely a six seed type of team.

They don't have shooting around Toppin. Same problem last year vs Florida.

May seem like it... but their coach has never had an underachieving season as head coach, according to KenPom (basically where you start the year and end the year in KenPom rankings).

Purdue looking really good. So far, making TT look like an average team. They are dominating on the glass 17 to 9 and scoring down low. In my opinion, Purdue much better down low than the beloved.

42 to 23 Purdue. TT not as good as people believed

I hope so.

 

[Illini in Italy]

TT looking like a bad JUCO team right now

 

[Illiniguy13]

Tech falling apart at the seams

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Purdue admist a 22-0 run.

 

[Scoregasm]

Pirdont, unfortunately, looks really good.

 

[ChiTown]

So far TTU look every bit like a JV team .

 

[PleaseMakeABowlGame]

Nightmare half for tech.

 

[derrick6]

Blow out

 

[azillini1]

Boilers 49 to 26. I certainly would trade our bigs for theirs

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Nebby looks much improved.

 

[Illini in Italy]

To be fair, Purdont
is shooting almost 80% from 3

 

[derrick6]

Purdue is not that good /s

 

[Illinisnake]

Yikes on the Texas tech look. We have a lot of work to do if this is how Purdue is going to play lol

 

[BBlock24]

Would be really cool if TT won this game.

I see Purdue has Purdue’d all over TT in the first half.

 

[azillini1]

Purdue is not that good /s

They will finish higher than us in the conference.

I like our guards and wings, but Purdue has the edge in the lane with their bigs

 

[illini011]

Painter has Purdue looking real good. If only Brad had as much in game coaching as Painter

Did you consider that we're not as good as Purdue? It really hurts to say, but they've owned us over the last decade. They also hold the best all-time B1G winning % (excluding UCLA for overall). They handled Bama on their home court. It's okay to have teams better than yours in the conference. Hopefully we beat them, if not, so be it.

 

[Scoregasm]

Purdont game....

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Pretty sure Braden Smith would like a word with you about your guards comment.

The way they're abusing TT is impressive. Either our win vs them wasn't very good or Purdue is every bit the best team in the country.

Going into Tuscaloosa and winning and now beating the breaks off of TT is pretty impressive.
