Rutgers v. Purdue (Game Thread)
- Thread starter Purdue Grad in Texas
- Start date
Big Cat with a lot of sauce on that one for the JI THROWDOWN!
Well done, Boilers.....liked a lot of what I saw out there, today!
Was hoping the coaches would play-fight in the handshake line.
Wow! Big win! We played a great game. Rutgers is damn good!
Did not handle the pressure well at the end, but nice to get a revenge win
They know what they're doing.
Amazing how “fresher” legs and a chance to focus For a day or two helps.
Big win! Rest up this week for 2 big road games and the emotional senior day game against the team down south.
How is it possible that vegas is always this accurate. A 12.5 line was absurd yet it ended at 12
How can someone not think there is something fishy..

Only 7 turnovers and 24-29 from the free thrown line. That'll do it. Great game, Boilers!
Rutgers was due for a loss. Mackey was the place it. Way to go Boilers! BTFU
You guys are good. Painter and Pikiell are class acts, no fighting.
Yes, as Auburn and Kentucky fell this week.....guessing Purdue might be #3.
Half of Rutgers' buckets came from breaking down that aggressive double team
Lol Too bad Howard won’t be on hand when they play Rutgers. Pikiell would be the type of coach to trigger Howard
That was a complete game, nice work Boilers! Amazing what a little rest can do!
Best game the Boilers have played in a week or two.
Congrats. Impressed by the Mackey atmosphere. Ivey is the straw that stirs the drink for you guys. Obviously Edey and Tre are talented, but in March this teams goes as far as Ivey takes you. I’m a big Matt Painter fan. Good luck!
I hope you guys make it to the dance as long as we won’t face each other again. Tic
If this is what the team plays like with one day off then wow. Can't wait to see the MSU game.
Obviously great shooting to start the game and really solid execution. Defensively a very good game compared to the others played so far this year.
One thing that was still driving my crazy was Tre helping hard at the top of the key leaving Cliff to roll hard to the basket. Idk if it was by design but it got burned seemed like every time.
BTFU!!!

feet in the lane, hands at teh 3 pt line
Surprised he didn't get a 3 second call...feet in the lane, hands at teh 3 pt line
Im assuming the officials sign NDAs like the NFL/NBA officials, so I would like to know whats in that contract, but I don't know how they can be so close for so many games involving 18 and 19 year olds.
If anyone hasn't seen it, Painter has a pretty good talk on why he doesn't run zone in the postgame interview..
It will be good for reference in future discussions on Purdue and zone defense...

Would not be very hard. A couple of non calls, a few calls on the other end you can change the momentum one team may have pretty easily.
Nothing fishy, they miss on some as well. I hit over Sasha 9.5 points thankfully because of a last second foul called. Also, the line was high and they probably lost because of it, my guess is more took Rutgers than Purdue because of the high spread.
Thanks for the classy post. Huge fan of what Steve Pikiell is building out there too. We hate you guys during the Big Ten, but I root for all the Big Ten teams once we hit the NCAA Tournament... well... except IU. I can't stomach them having any success.
