That's wild. I'm tuned in. Just got BTN on Sling. Any time Wisconsin loses make me happy. I'll tell you why. They sucked at everything for 60 years. Then that asshole Barry Alvarez came along. I will give credit where it's do. That man did a hell of a job. I dislike Wisconsin because of their pompous ass fans. They never had tradition because they sucked. I guess the specific point in time was when the football fans started doing the Jump Around thing in the 3rd quarter. When they started to get good. Then they started winning in the khols center in basketball. We owned then for what 37+years?

I never knew how much people from Minnesota hated people from Wisconsin until I visited Minneapolis 15 or so years ago... Almost as bad as Hoosiers despising Kentuckians... They call them Sconies...

I don't think they'll do as good as they did last year. They relied way too much on Edey and IU and FDU solved the problem. The game tapes are out and everyone knows how to beat Purdue.

The game tapes are out and everyone knows how to beat Purdue. They shouldn’t have to rely on him nearly as much this year. The team looks a LOT different this year with the three new guys they added to the rotation. Have looked a lot faster and have played more up tempo compared to last year. Best way to beat Purdue is help on Edey and hope Purdue misses open looks. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest of league looks very suspect I feel like we’ll know a lot more about Michigan once they play Memphis and Oregon right before playing us. They looked good against St John’s, but St John’s also lost to a D2 team, so I’m not sure how meaningful that is yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but at least IU has things to improve on after pulling out ugly wins. They could be like MSU, Maryland, or Rutgers who all need to improve after losing to sub-100 teams. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think it helps that we added another legit ball handler in Jones that we didn’t have last year to take some of the pressure off of Smith.

So why don't you guys have a snappy nickname for Smith, like "The Little Sapling" or something? 😁 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting logic #1 Kenpom offense vs top 100 29 wins When Purdue goes 5-26 on wide open 3’s with 16 turnovers they lose….every team loses with those 2 stats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i am already rhyming) interesting thought you come to argue Purdue on an iu board It's not great, but i am working on it. Also, IU made 4 threes and had 18 turnovers against Army.

Defense will give them a high floor but unless they can solve the half court offense, the ceiling might be fairly low. Surprised how bad Maryland has looked. Conference needs to start adding some good wins, not too many on the books yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy Moley they must have melted down. I watched the first half and thought they looked a heck of a lot better than predicted. Actually a little worried about them.
