*Official* 2017-2018 B1G In-Season Thread

Fat lady ain’t singing yet
She’s singing and twerking now. That last 3 summed up Newkirk perfectly. Why the hell is he the one getting the ball and taking the prayer 3? I don’t love RoJo at all, but he has a much better chance of making the play. IU also blew at least 2 chances to send a big to the line down the stretch.
 
Fitting end: Newkirk off balance, contested fade away three.

SUms up our guards basketball IQ.

Up 16. No way I would've thought this team, right now, would cough up that ype of lead versus God Damn Rutgers.

Sanders was unreal tonight.
 
Oh, well. Always next year.

And please Miller, pass on the NIT if there's even an invite. PLEASE.
 
Really? Opportunity to sit all the guys that are leaving and let the young guys get postseason experience.
They got postseason experience tonight. How'd that go? And really, what is one more game? Or a few more practices? In all likelihood, our NIT game would be a road game. MOF, it would be.

If offered, I hope we pass.

Has nothing to do with it. What good does a road game, and a few practices do? Great, we fo on the raod and get our asses handed to us my So.Illinois.

Yeah that would really help.
 
Worse than that. First 10 minutes, we were really good. Came to play.

Then just quit.

Up 24-8. And just flat out quit playing.

If you quit playing that’s got to be on the coach somewhat. Concerning for sure.

Agree. Miller wasn't at his best tonight. For sure. Him not calling a TO when Rutgers went on their run in the 1st half, was baffling. Team was in panic mode. Scrambling. Helter skelter. Call the TO, settle them down, and run your best play. Letting them play through that IMO was a huge mistake.

I like Miller. He's a terrific coach. But IMO, that was a big mistake there.
 
Didn’t Purdue get quite a bit of grief for almost losing to Rutgers at their place? When Sanders is hitting, they can win games. Dude is just so hot/cold.

Hopefully those legs are a bit run down after two straight games. At some point those contested midrange jumpers will stop falling, right?
 
One would hope. I don’t like PJT on Sanders.
The problem is they go too tall along the frontline for us to get creative defensively with PJT-CE-DM.

After the way the game at Rutgers went, I really hope Painter changes up the PnR coverage and hedges hard on those with the bigs. If we get beat on rolls by Rutgers' centers, then so be it.

Can Nebraska beat Michigan again? I think it's gonna be a hell of a game. Down to the wire.

Probably.

The game they played earlier this season was Michigans 3rd game in 5 or 6 days(something like that), and it was on the road at Nebraska which only made it worse.

Nebraska is getting a similar advantage tomorrow(Michigan playing on 21.5 hours of rest), albeit one earned via good play that 3 other teams will also have as well.

Sanders is a shitt talkin player. Tried that in Lincoln down 13 and got T-d up. Only matter of time til it happens in New York. All flare, no respect for the game.

Only game Nebraska lost at home was a last second 3 vs Kansas. One of the most under rated venues since Pinnacle Bank Arena opened. MSG is a whole nother ball game. Good luck tomorrow Michigan.

Michigan is the better team but Nebraska needs this win to get in the tournament and the Big Ten gets more money by having more teams in the dance.
 
Down 13 talkin shitt... basement of the b1g has treated Rutgers well. Enjoy the cash, maybe you can get your facilities up to Indiana's level.
