Butler v. Purdue Game Thread (Crossroads Classic 2021)

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

FLUSH time for Zachen!

 

[TX4GB]

Cmon Ivey, another fall and tie up.

 

[DrEss]

Frustrating

 

[purduepat1969]

Ivey's trying to force things.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Good call there - hands all over Newman.

 

[TX4GB]

This might get Newman going.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Brandon Newman...maybe this gets him started....nice play.

 

[PaBoiler78]

Ivey's trying to force things.

just going to post the same, does it alot

 

[NashvilleBoiler]

Good call there - hands all over Newman.

Good game for him to get back in the mix

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Splits the pair.....Boilers edging ahead....up four now.

 

[Schnelk]

Let the game come to you Newman.





























Edey with a nice block!

 

[Schnelk]

Zachen warming up.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Zach Edey - great hustle for the follow!

 

[DrEss]

Butler is not good and so far, we are playing to their level.

 

[TX4GB]

Butler scrapping and flopping.

 

[Abugabby]

Butler will wear down. They're playing their asses off but can't maintain this pace.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Up six - give up three and an offensive foul - gonna be another one of those days at the Cursed Crossroads.

C'mon Boilers.....spark it up.

 

[PaBoiler78]

Butler is not good and so far, we are playing to their level.

could say that for the last 2 games, uninspired play

 

[Schnelk]

Butler scrapping and flopping.

The Butler way...

 

[boiler-deuce]

Wow. Butler hasn't beaten anyone but Oklahoma. They are frantic and just crazy.

 

[IndySouthsider]

could say that for the last 2 games, uninspired play

Cliche much?

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

Newman's shot still not quite where it should be but some positive minutes from him... he drew 2 pretty quick fouls

 

[Schnelk]

Steps???

 

[purduepat1969]

Are the refs ever gonna call a moving screen on Butler?

 

[Schnelk]

Tre crashing the boards!

 

[PaBoiler78]

The Butler way...

still having trouble getting rebounds after their bad shots , killer

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Woah.....Jaden Ivey elevating for the tough slam attempt - Big Tre cleaning up.

Right now, Butler is getting more of the loose/extra chance balls, to me.

 

[TX4GB]

Ivey carrying us with a dash of Williams.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Jaden Ivey from Deeeeeep on the wing!

 

[BBG]

You just feel like we're going to see Purdue go on a run here at any second.

 

[Schnelk]

Ivey hits another! Assist from Tre!

 

[TX4GB]

Jordan on some caffeine this morning.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Thompson for Butler with two fouls. That might help.

 

[purduepat1969]

IT is back!

 

[BBG]

That is great to see from IT. Nice shot!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

IT - Boom Baby!

 

[purduepat1969]

And here comes Boroski to level the playing field...

 

[TX4GB]

Pete hammer Blue!

 

[DrEss]

Up 7 with 7 to go. Will they increase the lead before halftime or let Butler keep it close?

 

[Schnelk]

And here comes Boroski to level the playing field...

With the late whistle I might add.
