HOLY COW!

I'll admit, I turned over to ESPN when the men's game started, and Purdue was down 49-41 in the third. I should've stayed with the ladies in BTN and spared myself from that 1st half at Wisconsin!

From 44 at home vs Indiana to 75 on the home floor of the team that has dominated the B1G since they arrived. Go figure.

No way, no way, no way. I suggest that all on this board, including me, quit speculating about what this team can do. They keep surprising us both good and bad. I don't expect them to beat OSU on the road, but they might. I do expect them to beat Illinois and MSU at home but they might not. They certainly might make the Dance if they can win those two home games and a couple, maybe even one in the BTT. But they might not. Probably locked up an NIT bid tonight. But guessing and raving about or smashing this team is officially taboo.

Well if they don't make the tournament it won't be for lack of quality road wins. Ball State, Ohio, and IU at home would all look so much better in the win column but that's all water under the bridge at this point. It will be interesting to see what they bring against Ohio State on Sunday. Only 2 days to prepare and rest for a team that isn't very deep but that's all the time they had between IU and Maryland too.
