Purdue v. Illinois Game Thread

This team plays with zero energy. What a disappointment. This should be a special year with the talent we have.

The offense is getting caught up with the stupid play calling of Painter. They need to play more free in these next 5 minutes and we will be right back in it.
 
This is just what Groce said earlier in the game, that they can't let Hammonds go off. His nightmare is coming true. LOL
 
Swanigan with another turnover leading to an and-1 opportunity for the Illini.
 
i wish I could be listening to Clis right now, i hate the streaming radio licensing. Clis would tell it straight !!!!
 
Good thing for that foul on Illinois, because Dakota traveled out at the top by pulling his pivot foot up in the air, ref wasn't looking down.
 
Painter must of told everyone to go to rhe rim at halfime or in the timeout.. seems to be working some.

AJ still only has 3 shot attempts.

Our problem in this game is is mostly defense and then turnovers. Illinois shooting 50%+ from the field and 3.
 
Purdue vs. Illini can be a tough time for usually a half, but when Purdue is ranked, we are 14-4 on the road.
 
We are getting taken behind the woodshed by a bad team and even worse coach. Cue the Painter defenders and the "it's not like we were going to go undefeated" crowd. We peaked in November.
 
Painter is a good coach but I am questioning his subbing. His patterns this year have been awful. Why take AJ out and leave him out when he just started to get going?
His subbing is fine. Best in Big Ten IMO. You have to leave AJ out in that situation to preserve him.
