At the 7.5 min mark Michigan had 6 fouls. They somehow didn’t foul until 55 seconds left
Purdue at Michigan: MASTER DISCUSSION THREAD
- Thread starter Travis Miller
- Start date
Never ever ever pass it to Furst or Heide if you have a shot
too many calls that impacted this game. Foul out 2 post players, call a foul on a poor shooting player when braden hits a 3. Can't wait to meet these puds in the tournament. F UM
Waddell can shoot 3’s which is what the other guys on the floor can’t do
It’s worth a shot
Certainly a game that Purdue had its chances.....led for most of the game and up double digits in each half.....that one will sting given that Michigan has a leg up now. Boilers need to regroup for Saturday - probably can't afford but one more loss to really have a shot.
Just not good enough tonight on the key possessions.

Good game...fun to watch.
Great game by TKR & Smith.
Too many fumbles and missed bunnies underneath ended up being the difference. Crazy how many times we missed a close up easy bunny. Can't be Furst and do that

Superbly questionable one sided calls, but Purdue had a chance and didn't get it done. Some dumb fouls by TKR and nothing from the bench. Road games in the Big 10 are tough, especially against a team with two 7 footers.
Wolf looked like Wemby at times with cross over dribbles, drives and long range 3 pointers. They played the better game with a little assist from the Zebras

We LOST that game plain and simple. It was ours to take and we couldn’t get it done. Bench has to produce. And Braden has to be a bit more aggressive with shots if they aren’t. End of story
I kinda wondered if they played zone since Purdue never defeated it last game and perimeter players that get the looks don’t drain them.
Trying not to overreact on a tough loss, but no way we can get anywhere with Zero contribution from the bench. It's just painful to watch Smith and TKR play their asses off and get zero help from the bench.
Yeah, needed to split the road games and win out at home. Bummer we lost because I think @ Michigan is the easiest of MSU, @IU (superbowl), and @ ILL. Michigan also has easiest remaining schedule. Will need some help.
Tonight was such a winnable game and the missed layups and horrible bench play killed us.
Never seen anyone get stuffed and/or stripped more than Furst.
I mean they aren’t making the tournament and are the laughing stock of the big ten. So I mean, a win won’t help them at all. Go IU? Soooo gross
26 to 8 in FT attempts didn't help our cause either.....
Without production from the bench….the tournament ride will be a short one. Still say that first weekend is the ceiling.
Braden did defer longer than I liked, but there were some D lapses, fumbles and a lot of points lost at the rim. Caleb will bounce back, but there comes a time where you sometimes take the shot if it is a good one during a physical game rather than pass it underneath to a less physical player defended by a more physical player
He had a rough game. To be fair he was fouled some on those. Others he just biffed though.
That's the game. We're the better team and I like our chances on a neutral. Our D game almost beats them on the road.
who was there to stop him when the refs fouled out Furst and TKR?
Bench outscored 21-0. Two bigs in foul trouble, foul out. Down net 12 points on free throws. Playing away. Should not have been close.
He may have hurt himself earlier when he grabbed his leg. Maybe it stiffened some?
Neither Smith or TKR can get in foul trouble or we struggle. Whole offense revolves around their chemistry.
You need three willing and accurate shooters or you better dominate inside the lane
We have too many possessions where 4 guys are watching Braden. There's not enough movement, certainly not enough against the zone. Two places to get the ball against a zone, the free throw line and the baseline. We never got it to the baseline.
