loviubb Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 2 bad teams 53-42 3.51 to play Penn St. Looks like a bad loss to me. Not sure how you judge bad losses but to my eyes it was a bad loss at Penn State. Have not seen much of either team but this is an ugly game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSU although not great, is not bad. Rutgers beat PU, PSU was competitive with PU. Most teams are going to have “bad” losses and good wins, that’s called playing a season.

Purdue was lucky to win in happy valley. Lucky to play Iowa & Rutgers without top scorers. Unlucky to not play Michigan while they are struggling.

JW75 Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 Penn State is far from a bad loss. They will not be a pushover for any team this year, especially at home. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree...Penn State is starting to play defense pretty well, and like us, that can keep them in a lot of games, especially at home. They've added some good pieces for depth too...Mike Lee coming back from injury and Javonnie Scott (JUCO transfer who was ineligible the first semester because of grade issues...reminds me of a thicker Freddie Swain...not particularly skilled, but a bruising scrapper) makes their front court better...and we've already seen they have decent enough guards between Pickett, Lundy, Dread, and Sessoms...

Anybody can beat anybody on a given night in this league...Nebraska, which in my eyes is the worst team in the Big 10 took Ohio State to OT, and gave Illinois all they wanted for 37 minutes... Penn State has some talent and a lot of experience... Maybe we SHOULD have won, but, we didn't...and that happens...

IowaHoosierFan Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 PSU will only be a bad loss if they continue to lose games. They can lose lots of game by less than 10 points, but if they end up in the bottom of the B1G its going to be a bad loss. Doesn't mean they were a bad team or weren't competitive, but it will eventually become bad. Lets hope they start winning so we can say losing to PSU was a good loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was just the way game was being played. Neither team looked good. I can't stand this type of basketball. I didn't mean to imply winning on the road is easy. And thanks for telling me how a season plays out.

IU can and have lost to a lot of teams they shouldn't lose to. But that hasn't been the case in 20+ years. But I can relate, I have been following them since I could stand. That being said, IU needs to start beating PSU and Northwestern on more regular basis. The loss hurts, but when it's all said and done, if that's the worst loss they have all year, they'll be fine. Don't forget we're only a few years removed from getting pounded at HOME by Indiana State and IPFW (now PFW). Now those are some bad losses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
