Welp....as tough as Michigan State played, Boilers are maybe fortunate to just be down two. Purdue still needs a big second half on both ends of the floor to take this one. Seven turnovers didn't help.
Purdue v. Michigan State (Game Thread)
- Thread starter Purdue Grad in Texas
- Start date
It was obvious. Swallowed the whistle
Not too far off, if Purdue starts hitting a *few* threes, could easily get 37 or more in the 2nd half...
Love the analysts ripping the refs for the Edey fouls!
He is forcing. Michigan State not allowing 3 ball.
Matt Painter needs help with his wardrobe - that shirt he is wearing today could not be worse for him. Brings attention to his neck and chin and is not a good color for him.
Spot on in the studio (Dalen Cuff and Crispy) about the fouls on ZE. The one positive thought is maybe it's better outside of the conference games.
Half time announcers are ripping the referees. Letting it get too physical, not calling fouls where they should. MSU is trying to beat up Eden. Lousy basketball.
Not a fan of ESPN, but they're saying the very same. He's getting fouled almost every possession.
what is it w/ him anyhow? he's been here forever and would just like to see some consistency from him, I thought he'd be like Stauskas this year.
National treasure of s@&t
Seriously! Edey and Ivey getting mugged.
had 3 missed D rebounds this half to give them another possession.
Not much has changed from Isaac Haas... Zach might actually get worse treatment. Fing blows
Free throws keeping us in the game. 10/13. Only 1/5 from three. I think we go off shooting threes in the second half to raise percentage to 50%+.
I absolutely agree with everything they said.
There are rules for a reason, but the refs have to enforce them
Hey Big Ten executives. Better start asking your officials why ESPN is calling out your officials for officially sucking. Been going on all year. Not a good look for the conference. As a top conference, you should have some of the best officials and you don’t.
Glad we get the female perspective in here a bit!
That's something my wife would also notice straightaway (but I never would)! Let’s call an offense foul on a guy just after he was fouled and you don’t call it. Way to go refs! Keep on compounding your issues. The analysts are calling you out on it
He has gone from one of the better conference officials several years ago to the bottom of the barrel......don't know what happened.
I know I will get gasps and shocks for this, but from what I've seen, he is worse than BO this year......that's how bad it is.
Sasha needs to play within his ability.
Unlike an Ivey, Sasha has to have his shoulder square to the basket and feet set. Otherwise, his chance of hitting his 3's go down dramatically

Be careful some will object. Win ugly is our motto. Tic
Michigan State is definitely emphasizing taking away the three-pt shot and especially containing SS. Purdue needs to work off that....Hunter and Gillis may get some chances......and then there's transition opportunities if it's not there for JI.
I’ve previously pointed out he needs to wear shirts that don’t require him to wear a braGlad we get the female perspective in here a bit!
So can't watch the game today, but based on the thread so far it seems that Izzo whining is in full effect and the officiating is not doing us any favors as usual.
But only down 2 at the half with all of that is pretty promising.

Probably going to need to score driving the ball or posters to open the perimeter
MSU has fouls to give inside, big missing Fts a possibility and get the refs to remove Purdue bigs and outsourcing purdue
