*Official* 2017-2018 B1G In-Season Thread

Penn State completely outplayed Purdue all half and are somehow still down 2 at half. Not a good sign for the Lions, Nittany.
 
I need to get used to the reality that Carsen Edwards doesn’t spend four years at Purdue.
 
Dakota Mathias with his best Corey Sanders impression with all these midrange jumpers(not a good thing btw, dont care that they went in)
 
Unbalanced schedules make conference tournament titles matter quite a bit more than they use to.

Not really.

But I understand caring about it more if you didn’t win the conference.

I cared about it a lot in 2015 (year we lost to MTSU) because MSU was a real good team but IU won the conference.

Michigan State was the best team in the conference that year and didnt win the title so yeah obviously its understandable why youd care about it.
 
Nojel Eastern has been Purdues best defender the past 2 games. He is an amazing defender.
 
As long as it’s fairly close, PSU is never out of the game with Carr.

Heres the thing about that:

Penn State flat out cant guard Carsen. Theu cant figure out whether they want to concede 3s or layups vs him.

I mean, it’s an opinion shared by most. I’d still prefer the regular season title for sure but tournament titles use to me close to nothing to me. With unbalanced schedules it means more to me than before.

Like I don’t think Nebraska was a better team than Michigan even though they were a higher seed. Unbalanced schedule meant Nebraska played an easier schedule and got Michigan in a home single play. If they play in Ann Arbor Michigan probably finishes above Nebraska. They were able to make things right in the conference tournament.
 
Keep waiting for "Selection Sunday" comments....Tournament updates, etc, etc...But then I remember: Oh yeah, Big 10 decided to play a week ****ing early. To play in MSG....Yaaaaay.

Just stupid. Playing the Big 10 tourney now is like playing the World Series in November.

Stupid.

The Florida vs Kentucky game was on before the MSU v Michigan game. I was like "wow, if Florida wins they might end up getting an autobid tomorrow! Exciting!" ........until I realized I was watching a meaningless regular season game. We blew our loads a week early.
 
Simpson outplayed Winston in both the h2h games this year, which makes losing Winston a bit easier to stomach.

I have been, I am, and I always will be more accurate at assessing B1G basketball than the media and I had Zavier Simpson as a lock as all defense team for the past month.

Maybe , maybe not. But that is exactly why it's so stupid. Delaney's decision to do this basically freeze's you guys, MSU, PSU and Purdue(for the NCAAT). Right now with how you guys are playing.......Damn, man. If you guys could get going again on Thurs or Fri----Just dangerous. And you still could be. But this right here is why playing the BTT now is just asinine.
 
@Jaycg15 wanted to let you know that after today’s game, Mathias has tied E’Twaun Moore for the most 3-point makes in Purdue history. His next make will make him the all-time leader. Not bad for a 3rd/4th option eh?

He's basically Aaron Craft going forward
 
It makes me feel good that Michigan should be better next year, MSU should be worse next year, and we beat them by double digits twice this year.

Omg he's JJ Redick! Who's going to draft Purdue Kyle Korver?
