So then in those games (Xavier+UNC) we find other ways to be productive on the offensive end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also confused by the rebounding comment, we didn't rebound well because they were worried about getting back on defense? I'm surprised that 25 attempts from 3 are normal. Not debating it, just wasn't aware of it, and surprised it's that high. Seems like its high for us with our past shooting woes. Re: Rebounding. I didn't say we didn't rebound well, I was trying to make a point that even though we out rebounded them, was because they didn't send anybody to their offensive glass. From what I saw we didn't even look to put a body on somebody, because there was no opponent there to block out. So I hope Woody doesn't give up on the block out drills before we get to Sat, because I suspect AZ will send guys to the offensive glass.

Median in D1 is 21.6. IU is now averaging 18.9/game (#285), up from 17.7 last year. IA, KY and PU all average 22/game. PSU (#8) and ILL (#18) are highest in the B1G at 29.7 and 27.7, respectively. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly agree that rebounding against Zona will be a different beast and we have to stay locked in to avoid a repeat of Rutgers in that department.

Seeking6 Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 Before we put Nebraska to bed for the season I'll say this. I have no clue what Creighton is or isn't. I know we were ticked we don't play them twice. All I'll say is they have some nice pieces there and no doubt in my mind they will knock off 1 maybe 2 top half teams in Lincoln this year. Hoiberg is a fine coach....wish him well from this point on this year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sitting watching going ok.....every time we tried to push it up to 18 they'd bring down it down to 9.....even without one of their key guys. I saw some good players there. No clue if it's Purdue but one or two of the top 6-7 teams in conference will lose out there this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostin76 Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 Finally got a chance to watch the game this afternoon. Was hilarious watching TJD trying to get that last assist. Thank goodness Trey was able to make it happen. Trey, Kopp, and Bates really stepped up this game. Was good to see. I feel like XJ really needs JHS on the floor to take off some of the pressure on him. Hope JHS is ready to go this weekend. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if they have enough size but this is a better squad than last year for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
