<Elite 8> Purdue vs Virginia: Predictions & Game Thread

[IndySouthsider]

They get the ball to start 2nd 20 minute

I'm tired listening to a halftime of bs between talking heads.

I'm pretty sure it's killed more of my brain cells than all the beer I have ever had in my life

no kidding...…...bunch of fat cats NBA turds

And the money they make for all that nonsense

 

[Do Dah Day]

Did they not plan on a half-time this long??? Holy Cow ... this is awful.

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

We got to play strong. We have 20 minutes left to punch our ticket to Minneapolis.

 

[BBG]

I feel like if we can get up 10 points again that would be enough for us to win.

 

[purduepat1969]

That was huge

Was actually a good call. But there were two bad possession calls. One that was egregious in the overturn by Bo.

 

[boiler-deuce]

We need more than shots from deep to win this.

 

[IndySouthsider]

I have no gut feeling for this.


It’s really odd.

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

Got to find a way to slow Diakente down
Gotta rebound better...and I'll like our chances. Maybe get a few more points in the paint somehow.

Boilers on the receiving end of a couple bad overturns (tho the Wheeler 3 was probably the correct call) Gotta hope it evens out in our favor the 2nd half. BTFU!

 

[big10best]

Charles Barkley needs to shut up!

It was but ya know

 

[BoilerGal74]

At least get someone in the paint to rebound for Offense. We might get lucky with a foul or two if not the ball.

 

[BBG]

Same here really. Probably because being here was rather unexpected so we are all just enjoying the ride no matter what.

Wheeler call would have been correct original call but was wrong as an overturn... no clarity of proof to overturn from the vids they showed

 

[Bethboilerfan]

Does anyone know the foul situation?

 

[SKYDOG]

It's Time Boilermakers time!

Don’t get me wrong. We can win it. For sure. Carsen is actually hitting his. But it’s just so tight.

Lol...That’s what I said before the game. Now I want to win this thing!!!!

 

[KentuckyBoiler]

Just showed Jeff Brohm. Place exploded.

 

[BBG]

Does anyone know the foul situation?

There really haven't been many called

 

[Gman544]

DumbChuck said Purdue can't keep shooting threes like that. They shot 8 for 19=42%. Normal.

 

[FirstDownB]

Does anyone know the foul situation?

Clark with two. Nobody else with more than one.

 

[purduepat1969]

The UVA board is talking about how Hunter will shut down Carsen. Good luck with that. Tennessee thought the same thing and look how that turned out for them...

 

[GoldandBlackintheSaddleAgain]

Does anyone know the foul situation?

6 of our guys with one foul each I believe. I don't think anyone has two. I think UVA had 5 team fouls

 

[IndySouthsider]

Does anyone know the foul situation?

Nobody has more than 1.

Noticed that, too. You are on it.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Does anyone know the foul situation?

Purdue had 6 - all with different players (Cline, Hunter, Williams, Eifert, CE, and Jel). Clark had 2 for UVA, Hunter/Jerome with 1

 

[Schnelk]

Need better post play. Need to negate Diakate with Williams and Haarms.

 

[IndySouthsider]

Hunter now on Edwards so Clark is guarding Nojel?

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

Wtf he's wide open

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Two on Jerome....let's go Boilers.

 

[BoilerGal74]

Who left him??. Geesh!

 

[IndySouthsider]

So Tony’s change was to start the big kid and move Diakete to the 4?

 

[BoilerGal74]

Critical moment... take back the lead!

 

[burnacct28]

I have no gut feeling for this.


It’s really odd.

I thought you guys would win but now I don’t. You need to find a way to score some inside.

 

[BoilerGal74]

Good job Nojel!

 

[BBG]

Ah come on...

 

[SKYDOG]

Come on Cline guard him
