Majorly disappointed

Rebounding and points in paint seem to be major flaw. Not sure I see solution either.

Do you just go small and shoot 40 3s a game to flip it?

WE FINALLY GOT HEIDE AT THE FOUR AND TKR AT THE FIVE

shhhhhhhh.......don't tell Wole.

Post game card....
Loyer great this year.
Smith controlled game. Scored at will.
Number of scorers/bench scoring
Colvin D showed major effort
TKR had a big game against decent competition
Heide woke up
Cox was a super sub

Things to work on.....how did they do...
✅Got to cut the TOs
Overall # NOT bad. Had several silly TOs, just not needed. Some of these by Smith. Too much experience for that. But ten - that's ok

✅our interior D still sucks
Jacobson big loss. Time will improve this, but now it's really low level. Teams will abuse us until this gets cleaned up. This will keep us from winning B10 imo if something isn't done.

✅ Defensive rebounding poor
Still needs help. Give up way to many 2nd & even 3rd chances. Champs don't do that

✅Need to draw more FT shots
2nd half was fantastic improvement

Here’s hoping that the general crowd starts the chant at Every game this season so that the kids don’t get in to (non-enforceable) trouble…

Good win against a decent team. We aren't there yet. Average team right now. Not sure if going small may not be our best option. Smith, Fletch, Cox, Harris, Colvin and Heide along with TKR. Everybody is going to have to rebound.

Heide and Colvin are capable, but yeah, it will have to be all hands on deck. Really liked what I saw from Colvin, Heide, and Cox on both ends - they were a big part of the victory. Centers are going to have to grow up fast for Purdue to get to next level......we shall see.

Big time test Friday when the Crimson Tide comes calling.

Smitty with 22/9/6 and 5 steals......couple of bad turnovers, but still a very good game for the floor general.....well done.

Is that because of their talent, coaching, and/or scheme? Me thinks the latter two play more of a role than the former two.

Scheming guys open takes a little more time, which we rarely have.

Wonder if bama will shoot tons of 3s instead….they had some trouble with Mcneese state tonight

Great game tonight on the boards as well...will get plenty of minutes if he continues this performance

Defense was great and his offense is really good too. Good to see his hard work is paying off. Need him to keep it up!

Kind of crazy we are still favored to win. Haven't really looked like big ten champs with the two games we've played, but I guess no one in the big ten really has.

Yeah I think the latter is what it really is. No big ten team looks that much better than the others…yet.

Cliff is going to dunk on us 150 times.

Here’s to hoping walters gets fired.

Great game tonight on the boards as well...will get plenty of minutes if he continues this performance

Because you have NEVER done it before by your own admittance. Remember Goldwater in 1964 before you probably were born?

Good showing by Cox, Colvin and Heide. Of course the big three did their thing too.

Need to seriously work on defense and rebounding.

Need Furst/Berg to come on strong in paint!

Purdue up to 8th in the college poll, on the downside they’re #20 in the RPI. Just keep winning and things will work out as far as hosting the first two rounds.

Great help D and board by Heide!
