Iowa State (5) v. Purdue (4) Game Thread (NCAA Tournament Midwest)

[TheBoris]

The Purdue choke has begun.

 

[IndySouthsider]

Ok I never get too upset at coaching.


But that line up was stupid

 

[Lionheart1]

Painter enough! You've let them back in the game and now they've got their confidence back. Get Biggie back in and let's close this out!

 

[FirstDownB]

Hope Biggie isn't totally mindf@cked

 

[BBG]

We knew they would make a run, just have to weather it and punch back.

 

[Schnelk]

Bucket here guys...

 

[Lionheart1]

If they lose this totally on Painter.

 

[PU pit bull]

Finally............

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

We knew they would make a run, just have to weather it and punch back.

Yep....gotta play through the adversity and stay mentally strong.

 

[Schnelk]

Now get a stop.

 

[DrJez]

Painter's piss-poor game management

 

[PU pit bull]

Thank you VE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ahhculdee]

Painter blew this lead.

 

[BBG]

Need to play freakin defense....

 

[Schnelk]

Yes Vince. Make this.
And then let's play some D. Please.

Painter's piss-poor game management

Even if we hang on... How many times do we blow huge leads? 19 to 3? Come on man.

 

[ahhculdee]

Thank you Vince. I

 

[IndySouthsider]

Man. Nice rebound and put in Vince

 

[FirstDownB]

Biggie is pissed and not in a good way. Trying to do it all by himself now.

 

[BBG]

Even if we hang on... How many times do we blow huge leads? 19 to 3? Come on man.

When you don't play defense and against a team that can score like Iowa State can, no lead is safe. Besides this isn't even remotely unique to us.

 

[ahhculdee]

Need to calm Biggie back to confidence.

 

[DrJez]

Sat Swannigan when we needed to go for the throat and finish them off...

 

[krazyjvilled]

Painter was coahing great until that 3 min stretch what the **** is he thinking swanigan has 0 fous and his punching things on the sideline in amger wanting out there. WTF WE R BLOWING A MASSIVE LEAD AGAIN BECAUSE OF THIS COACH

 

[Dakota Girl]

Painter blew this lead.

Take a deep breath. They'll get it back.

 

[The Boiler Special]

I've never seen any team lose leads like Purdue does. It's every year... It boggles my mind we can be so fragile with leads like this... Just makes no sense. Always letting the other team get their heads up. Arkansas LR all over again...

 

[Boilermaker]

Why in the hell did Painter pull him? He was not tired (dude does cardio after every game) and was playing great and wearing down his defenders. We won't play for days, so ride Biggie till he falls over.

The zags did and we did the same thing to ND, It's not just us this happens to.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

i cannot understand our coach sometimes. he coaches a brilliant game and then just shoots himself in the dick.

 

[PU pit bull]

Damn good looks............make em !!!

 

[IndySouthsider]

Are you kiddingly me you blow the whistle on us as the grab and mug them?

 

[BBG]

Can't disagree, but then again I imagine all coaches have some issue like that to an extent.

 

[PU pit bull]

missed FTS.........shit

 

[Boilermaker]

Free throw choke? Gotta be kidding me.

 

[Boilermaker]

That place is gonna EXPLODE when ISU takes the lead.

 

[IndySouthsider]

Annual butt clinch game.

Get mentally tough please

 

[BBG]

Can't miss FTs....

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Gotta dig deep, Boilers....the mentally stronger team will take this.

 

[Schnelk]

Great pass from biggie.

 

[Boilermaker]

Come on Haas, play well big guy!

 

[IndySouthsider]

How is that a shooting foul????
