BTT: Michigan v. Purdue Game Thread

[BoilerBiker]

first half had way too good of flow, etc.
fully expecting a foul-fest via our favorite refs to start the second half
be aware, and make your FTs boilers

 

[PU pit bull]

One nice thing.....no real foul trouble.

Teddy V. will make sure the network gets a good game since they are disappointed in the fact that this isn't IU vs. Purdue. CBS did not get their wish and I am happy about that. They should have know Crean was at the helm for IU and that he can't win in the BTT to save his life, his tan, and his clappiness.

 

[honey_badger]

AJH.....in the flow. wow

Hadn't heard the "poor man's" Tim Duncan before.

that's a slam to Hammons and I think the network should ban him for a week

 

[GemstateBoiler]

We need to put them out of it in the first 5 minutes of No. 2. Michigan is streaky and I want them to have no change for a run. Com'on Boilers.. Blow them out quick.

One nice thing.....no real foul trouble other than PJT with two.

Neither team reached the bonus & only 9 fouls called. It seems that usually mean lots of whistles in the 2nd half so the refs can meet their quotas.

Yep. Only a matter of time before TV Ted gets involved.

What's this world coming to? I agree with Seth Davis. Michigan should be in regardless of how this game goes.

Michigan sux, there is NO way they should be in,,, look at their double-digit losses. The top bracketologists have them OUT. So yea, there's that.

8 point lead w/o DM and RC not shooting well.

Michigan belongs in the NIT, period.

They are the classic toss-up. 17 of 22 wins have come from outside the RPI top 100, but they have only 1 loss outside the top 50 & none outside the top 100. I think the lack of bad losses should put them ahead of the bubble mid-majors with multiple sub-100 losses, but it's just about impossible to say which the committee will weigh more in any given year.

 

[honey_badger]

Teddy is sharpening his whistle. I hate that man.

 

[Schnelk]

I know what you mean. But Cline's got one. He'll get more today. Mathias will contribute too. Btfu!

 

[Dakota Girl]

Swanigan Irvin matchup is tough for us...and them

Now I'll argue with myself. You are wrong. Swanigan has handled it well when guarding him

 

[honey_badger]

Yes, we are looking pretty special and with Mathias contributing in the 2nd half, this should be an epic blow-out. 2nd half getting ready to start. wow, there are a lot of media credentials from the NBA here.

advantage Swanigan...nice observation Dakota Girl.

 

[PU pit bull]

block and Davis layup............nice

 

[Schnelk]

Nice block AJ! And a bucket Ray!

There is NO way they are getting in. First of all, we will beat them by double-digits today and 2nd they don't deserve it based on EVERY single bracketologist having them out. But Dakich says they belong so I guess the committee will allow it.

 

[PU pit bull]

crack them bones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Schnelk]

Awesome drive by Edwards!!!

 

[GemstateBoiler]

So there!!!! Keep it up!!!!

 

[PaBoiler78]

Boller Makers starting to roll. Gotta keep it up.

[honey_badger]

[honey_badger]

PULLING the wagon away from the rest of the pack....... Purdue looks unstoppable. Michigan looks NITish

 

[Schnelk]

Hammons is a man in there!

 

[honey_badger]

PLEASE get it to 20 points, PLEASE. Oh and put Dakich back in,,,,LOL

 

[honey_badger]

Let's act like we know how to put someone away,,,,,we are stepping on their throat right now. Can we just apply more pressure now? Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PU pit bull]
