TheWatShot Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 I wonder how many teams have won as many games as Purdue did to start conference play yet failed to win even a share of the title. We can always count on the Smellermakers to screw something up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to focus on the rest of the season now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it has happened before but that has more to do with it being really rare for a team to win 12 straight to start conference play than it does Purdue having some epic collapse.

KoB2011 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 I'd also add, 4 of Purdue's 5 double plays were against bottom half teams and none of the top 4. I think Purdue won 2-3 more games because of their schedule than if they'd played our schedule for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Wasn’t it Iowa a few years back that had a big lead in the conference late in the year and blew it? That was bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a big lead, we won the conference by two games total and three over Iowa. They collapsed I guess, but we also were clearly the best team that year.

Doesn't matter...and I love Hummel as a color guy but I was actually laughing out loud as I read "Sobbie Hummel" in that post. That you expect HTD or most of us Smellermaker haters to be fair and balanced about your beloved Toiletmakers is comical in and of itself. I would say that Purdon't gets more benefit of the doubt here than IU gets on GBI, but just by a little. You're polite because you understand this is an IU forum. I would act likewise if I decided to post in a Purdue forum. You really shouldn't expect to see much Smellermaker love here. That's what rivalries are all about.
