Purdue v. Iowa Game Thread

Loving the intensity. Clean up the butterfingers on boards and get a few more 50/50s and we win going away. Don't rely on the 3, but don't force it inside. That's my only worry. We have a decent offensive flow. Keep it up!

All in all after that rough start....nice to have a lead at the half.

IF....IF the Boilers play with composure in the second half, they can pull this out. The pressure is coming....though.

Woodbury had a hold a Haas before that foul. Should have been a foul on woody if the officials would call it tighter. They are letting him get away with a lot.
 
Is it just me or have the refs been going easy on Iowa? I know there is such a thing called home court advantage but they've been doing illegal screen all day long. Their big guys have been sliding sideways while setting screen so often that I thought they were playing on ice!

that and they hold all of our bigs with 2 hands. ridiculous.
 
Bugs are using the elbow flop against Haas. Happened in the OSU game also. The ref told Macaffery it was almost a flop call in the review.

I should have added the qualifier.....this is where I think CMP has to get on the officials at some point.....maybe to the point of getting T'd up......not necessarily in this game but sometime. Otherwise, I don't see the "pattern" changing. JMO.

Please tell me Woodbury is a senior.

Oh and on a personal note "Woodbury, kiss my ass." This is like weekly stuff with him. I have to give him credit though, he gets away with it.
 
if haas really landed an elbow to Woodbury's face, he'd be on the ground and wouldn't get back up. I have no respect for him. Such a bush league move. Wish you could fine his punk ass,

Oh he's on them.......Cliz was vehement about that.........maybe CMP has be on them like stink on sh*t, but sounds like he is more "active" today

Our 2 bigs have a combined 4 shot attempts. We need to be more balanced - what happened to our inside/out game? We're shooting 54% from 3 right now - it's not gonna hold up.

Also, Swanigan needs to just flat out play smarter. He's a love/hate relationship kinda guy. He does a completely moronic thing then goes and does a great thing.

Turnovers have to keep down. Killing us! We are out rebounding Iowa by 7 and Iowa had more shot attempts.

on replay, the swim move AJ used never made contact w/ the Iowa player.
 
First half thoughts:

1) great intensity and shot selection. Hope it continues into the 2nd.
2) Why did Painter take PJ out around the 5:10 mark after he just hit 3 threes and nearly forced a turnover?
3) Caleb and Vince look a little out of sorts. Vince is having trouble establishing himself offensively. Vince has mishandled a few routine boards. Is it Iowa's physical presence? Nerves? Pressing a little?
4) Great 1st half, PJ!
 
home cooking crooked piss poor officials.big ten is the worst ever for these bozos never consistent at both ends

That's why I said don't rely on the 3.
 
GD Woodbury!!!!!!!!! This f*cker has hurt more players in the Big than anyone.........BS
 
If it makes you feel better to blame it on refs, go ahead. But Purdue's played like crap, particularly on defense.
 
Woodbury is a ****ing menace. How do you not call that a foul>???? And you give them the ball? Horrible.
