I get it though, it has impact on our B1G Championship run, but all that matters is our next game on Saturday. Win that one and then see where things stand again. It would be great if Illinois takes care of business tomorrow vs. Northwestern!
If we win Saturday, we could have the B1G wrapped before the next game in Madison.There was no mention because this is a Boilermaker board.
TJD has been running on fumes for like 2 weeks it's looked like. But I wouldn't mind him sitting Saturday. Purdue game, isn't necessarily important and I see no shot of winning it. I'd just get ready for next week's home games and try for 12-8 in conference.
I always get nervous with these kind of absolutes.
Indiana hasn't won at Mackey since 2013 and this team is tired. Purdue has a week off leading into it. I say it's a 99.9% chance of Purdue winning. ESPN has it at 76.3%.
It ain't over until it's over!
Phinisee had that game at AH. If the team was healthy, I'd give them a better shot in the road, but then again, this team would probably be better if they could have been healthy at any point during B1G play.
Some good thoughts, however, it’s Wednesday morning, the game is Saturday night, TJD will be fine, let’s not act like a well conditioned 23 year old can’t play 2 games a week. Wonder if Johnson tries to make a return? My guess is no and that maybe next week he logs minutes.
If the roles were reversed I can't imagine any PU fan saying sit Edey when we go to Ass Hall. That's a ridiculous take you have there. Davis isn't any more tired than any other starter in the B1G. You come to Mackey and you give it your absolute best shot. I expect nothing less from Davis and the rest of your team Saturday night.
IU will come to God's country and give it their best shot. There will be no signs of being physically and mentally tired as long as the game is close. In the second half dependent on time and score, if the game is not close and the good guys are ahead...then we may see them give up
This is another shot for TJD to compare to Zach for a good finish for second POTY. We have personally witnessed two storming of the courts when Purdue loss at Bloomington the last two years. It is obvious that doing all it can, IU wants to beat Purdue and Saturday will be no different
Playing almost 40 minutes a game and basically doing everything can take a toll.
If someone could ghost the Indina on the jerseys that would be ONE epic clip
What it shows is the understanding that this player is not a warrior, and you can't expect him to act like one all the time. (he is better this year, but still..)
TJD would put Woody in a sleeper hold if he tried to bench him for this game.
I can see iu getting down big in the 1st half and packing it in.IU will come to God's country and give it their best shot. There will be no signs of being physically and mentally tired as long as the game is close. In the second half dependent on time and score, if the game is not close and the good guys are ahead...then we may see them give up
Cats lose to Illinois and Maryland....I want them in the BTT with refs who don't have a wager on the game and know what a foul is 😃
Yep, we went through the same thing. My IU buddy was crushing me after our bad stretch. I told him that IU had one early and they'll have one late in the year....it's coming.
maybe...once down big if that happens...yes they will quit I expect
