Great tip-off time! Very excited to be able to see it live.
I think that Purdue was disrespected by the committee and that absolutely deserved at least a 4 seed. That said, there's really no excuse, the Boilers need to reach the Sweet 16 because they have talent, confidence, they can play good defense and play like a team. They are better than Arkansas Little-Rock for sure and they are also clearly better than Iowa St. imho. The end of the BTT was a disappointment but that run clearly showed that Purdue is a very good team that can compete against anybody on a neutral court. Come on Boilers!

We have a deep bench and these guys are eltie athletes they will be fine in Denver....Everyone is playing in the same environment...we maybe even have a slight advantage with our bigs incase the altitude is affecting long range shots.
Painter talked about his experience coaching some of the USA try outs there in Denver. Seems like he gets it.
Also, this year all 3 assistants are working on Little Rock. In past years, its been one assistant on the team they play and the others focus on the next round.
