Seeking6 Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Purdue down a couple TD's early to Illinois. Have 7 points with 9 minutes to go in first half. 3-15 shooting and have zero answer for Illinois big. Maybe we should remember that when we play them?

PU shooting almost as bad as we did yesterday. 19 points at the half. 30% from the field. 1-9 from 3. Go Hoosiers!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUwins0708 Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 College basketball seems to have taken a huge step in the wrong direction this year. Not many teams have shooters anymore, at least not more than one. Maybe they should move the line back up?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly haven’t even thought about how the line move might have changed basketball this year. Anyone have any stats on 3 point shooting percentages this year compared to last?

College wide...not just with our guys I just don't see shooters anywhere. I see dribble, attack the rim, finish and get to the line guys but pure shooters. Few and far between. Will be something to watch as the season goes along because you think with conference play only now....defense should only get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Just a general comment on short term memory. Hope our kids have short memories because the Big 10 schedule doesn't allow for wallowing. For example....Purdue is now 2-2 after that loss last night and next 3 are at Michigan, home with Sparty, at Maryland. They could go from 2-1 to 2-5 in conference play real quick making that Virginia win a distant memory. This why these next 4 are so important for us. After these next 4 you could make a point there isn't an easy or perceived easy one left on the schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
