A hard fought win against a good team! Way to go Boilers!! I don't think I felt better for any player this year than for Brandon Newman in this game. Way to shine, Brandon!! I think the Penn State posters are well worth reading. They're proud of their team and you've got to honor that. Otherwise, they had the usual crap to dump on the officials. Enjoy!
Have to imagine Indiana winning earlier will be good for Penn State, support-wise. Will be interesting to see how many Hoosier fans show up for the night session to cheer against Purdue.
I'd imagine a good number of Michigan State fans stick around as well to root for the easier matchup.
Harrar already with two boards.
Ha. If there is one guy you never have to worry about showing up it is big John!
Purdue was not ready for the triangle and 2.
Not a great shot for Lundy…but man this is fun!
This is the most energy I've seen PSU open a game with since the Michigan game.
This is literally the only way they can hope to pull this upset. Quick start and hope you can weather the offensive onslaught Purdue will inevitably bring. Couldn’t have asked for a better start.
No matter what... exciting to see some good coaching... some passion... and some FIGHT from this program. I truly feel a "climb" actually happening now.
I'm so happy. But as a 30+ year fan, I'm also scared to be happy. Lol
That is a questionable moustache on Morton.
Questionable is putting it lightly.
Yeah, but you never know whether or not you can pull off a ‘stache until you try.
Now he knows. He can’t!
Big John is kicking ass and taking names!
That's a moving screen, but you could call that 20 times per game.
Are we that cheap that if Sam tore his jersey against Rutgers that we don’t have another number 3?
Sam may never wear 3 again if this streak keeps going!
Still can't believe PSU does not have the Nike resources needed to get guys backup uniforms.
Sliding your butt across the floor isn't a travel?
He was on ice skates!
Well, they survived long enough to get Harrar and Lundy back in there. Still up 18-9.
Got John 4 minutes of rest + 2 TV timeouts. That's a win.
Torrid start, uncharacteristic for us. Love it. Williams is such a tough guard but if we play even with him in, I like us playing even with the big ogre.
Yeah. Purdue can score and we have been prone to long scoring droughts.
Big issue is going to be legs in the second half after we lose some of the first half adrenaline.
There is nothing more cringe worthy than a Midwestern engineer with noodle arms doing the double arm pose.
Cornwall has played well tonight. There’s a first for everything!
Man, Lundy really struggling shooting.
Ivey will be tonight's E.J. Lidell.
So, today's Ivey is yesterday's Liddell? Touch him and it's a foul.
Lundy has to do what Ivey just did. Things are dropping, so start attacking.
There goes Lee's ankle again.
That's a rough loss for us if he is out.
That was awful on D. You can't leave Ivey for a switch when he has the ball. I'm sure Shrews will be on DJ.
Is there a reason this tourney is in Indy every year so Purdue and Indiana get home games?
It’s not…it rotates between Indy and Chicago…also recently had it in New York and Washington DC.
Hang in there, Purdue is definitely gonna have some offensive outbursts. Get the ball moving on offense more. There’s a lot of things going well in the 1st half. Getting a breather for JH was good he gonna need huge minutes.
Probably the last we see of the triangle and two. Purdue figured it out.
So I disagree with the person who said Lundy is a bad shooter. Screams of recency watching. But he is streaky to a fault. Need him to get one.
Shrews has to mix it up on offense. Purdue doubling Pickett throws things off.
8 consecutive made fgs and we are down 5. RELAX!
Ivey gets every single call, it’s unreal!
That's not a ******** foul...is this the nba???? Calling fouls on every contested shot.
Newman kid for Purdue can’t miss!
Anyone on our bench that can start lighting it up for the first time since January? Jevonnie?
Hey, Newman, shoot!
Why is it always with Penn state basketball or football there is always someone on the opposing team that has done nothing all year and then has the game of their career against us?
Ivey is really good. Not sure he wants to tangle with Harrar, though.
Ivey getting Branham royal treatment.
Terrible last possession but lucky to be down 4. Second half team.
Harrar made it out of the half with one foul. That's big for PSU.
Second half team. 4 is nothing.
Let's hope! The energy they displayed the first half was terrific. Just hope they're not gassed. And Purdue with fresh legs, too.
B1G officials again inserting themselves, once again favoring the perceived star. Really an embarrassing look.
We outplayed Purdue that half. We just seem to never hit open shots. Meanwhile, they finish 9 of their last 10, plus two atrocious fouls that led directly to 4 at the line. Despite all that, we gave up 35 and are down 4 to the 3 seed and a Final Four contender.
Pretty solid first half. Hung in there on the boards and not in foul trouble. This is a very well coached team. Also, this is basically a road game.
Just made a couple lemon drops in my Bartesian so no matter what happens the second half will be good one way or another.
BTW, anyone else ready to punch Robbie Hummel in the face?
Didn't realize he was still playing.
That guy Trayvion is a nightmare for PSU, feels like 80% chance he'll score or get fouled every time he gets it in the post. Can’t let him have it near the hoop.
That's three on Dread. Not good!
"I don't think Edey jumped to block that one." Has Edey ever jumped?
Edey is one ugly looking guy!!
Edey is so punchable, if I had a step ladder
WTH was that Seth? Gezzz!
Whatever it was, it wasn't a foul
This team lives and dies by Lundy. And they’re about to die by him.
Lundy has the yips!
Both Lundy and Johnson can't even hit the floor right now.
Rewarding another flop. This is ridiculous!
Actually saw a flop called in a game yesterday .. but they won't call ***** on Purdue.
Refs can't let 3 seed go down!
I've been trying to think of the word that describes Purdue. Smug. These MFers are smug. Please beat them.
Seth Lundy needs to get away from the 3pt line.
Harrar absolutely playing his **** off!
5 team fouls to 0. C'mon!
5 to 0 in fouls and Ivey whining about a foul after he rode Sessoms like a donkey!
Wow! Why was Newman not getting PT???
No charge? Ivey just runs over Dread. Wtf
I mean that is a charge on Ivey!
It's maddening. There is somehow star treatment in the big ten. EJ had it last night.
Brendan ******** Newman 4-4 from deep and Seth has a goose egg. The difference in this game.
I can’t stand listening to this Newman, January 11th, crap!
Purdue is doing just fine on their own. They don't need the refs' help!
I think it is time for Shrews to lay into the refs. He is a nice guy, but he needs to understand that we won't ever get a fair whistle unless he pulls it out of the refs. A lot of times star-bias is subconscious for refs, and it takes pressure from the opposing coach to snap them out of it.
It’s 10:42 pm and BIG refs still suck!
Might have to try to squeeze the entire final 10:35 out of Harrar. It'll be tough with the bulk Purdue can throw at him. But could be PSU's best shot.
Edey is a pu$$y. He is 7 4 calling for a freaking intentional.
Purdue = freakazoid center U!
Purdue has the legs and are hitting. We're losing ours. This is why it's so hard to make the weekend as a team playing on Wednesday.
Anyone else annoyed they keep showing the same old fat Purdue fans? At least show the cheerleaders or something.
Not as bad as IU fans.
Are there any Penn State fans in the stands?
They're sitting on the bench, wearing blue.
Not sure I’ve ever seen a game where 1 player was so bad on offense and defense as Lundy tonight, hard to watch. Can’t shoot can’t catch a pass can’t close out on D.
F*** Purdue again for good measure.
Love the meaningless fouls on Purdue to make it look like an evenly called game.
Very good showing.. Nothing to be ashamed about here. Purdue is probably a borderline elite 8/final 4 team, and many didn't expect PSU to beat Minnesota.
Y’all giving up? I just cracked another beer for the comeback.
If we can keep him, Shrews gives us a chance to be a consistent tourney team. He can coach the ***** out of basketball.
Cornwall hit a 3!
Cornwall is actually a MonStar from Space Jam, he stole Johnson’s Offensive mojo.
CORNWALL REDEMPTION GAME
3 for his last 32 now!
Why did the ref under the basket need help on that elbow to the face call?
Ok but really though, haven't we heard the b******* all year that if you hit somebody in the face with an elbow it's an automatic flagrant f*** f*** f*** yada yada yada!
This team is something else. What an effort!
Pretty cool to see Cornwall have some success. He's a good kid. Just has struggled. The smile on his face there was great.
They gonna make a Disney movie about those 2 3s!
I got nothing…speechless…this team is unreal, man!
You have to love this team. They are so overmatched and it just doesn’t matter.
My gut says we’re gonna fall short but once again they made me look stupid for giving up on them too early. Here comes the butthole clenching.
Is it just me or is Williams mismanaged on this team due to the giant?
The fact he’s not in this game is a fireable offense.
Williams is much better than the goon. He'll be in after the timeout.
Yeah real talk. Williams could play with a big, but Edey cannot. It's going to be their downfall. Only one of these guys is a viable NBA player.
62-61 Purdue 2:28!!!
That's a foul on Williams on the second foul shot by Ivey. Refs have no balls.
Ivey traveled on that breakaway!!
Surprised they didn’t whistle us for Williams running into Ivey there.
Come on Williams, show a little class. That was ridiculous!
Dipsh*t. Trying to show boat.
I think Williams helped us cover there.
No shame. Absolutely none. Team has so much heart and guts.
One hell of an up and down season, but Shrews got everything he could out of this team. The future is bright.
F*** Purdue and their phucking phans!
Shrews will start ripping the officials now that he’s not on the Purdue staff. He’s going to understand how the favored schools have advantage. Things will change after this year regarding foul calls, guaranteed.
Love this team man, didn't get to watch as much as I wanted, but I love this team.
Thank you John. Heart of a lion.
Painter giving us our recruiting pitch!
Painter is a class act. That was very cool.
Painter on Harrar: "Hey, he's what it's all about man. He gave everything to that program. He stuck at Penn State and kept battling when they had a coaching change, you know, hats off to him and hats off to those guys."
Painter on Shrews: "Micah Shrewsbury. Wow. He is a hell of a coach, man. They put you in binds that make it difficult for you, they make you adjust. He's a hell of a coach. I wish they weren't so smart at Penn State so we could still have him at Purdue. Sandy made a hell of a hire there. He's fabulous."
Proud of this team. I don’t know how they can walk with that set of balls!
Have to imagine Indiana winning earlier will be good for Penn State, support-wise. Will be interesting to see how many Hoosier fans show up for the night session to cheer against Purdue.
