" Just a damn good team with a damn fine coach, and they've got a damn good chance at boxing Michigan State for the right to be the Big Ten's best."

That was a damn good write up!

That is as good of piece on Purdue as I have seen

I think our guys have been preparing for that...

Has me thinking about what might have been if four freshmen who came in together as Baby Boilers would have stayed together and healthy through their Senior year.

The loss to Tenn and W KU still sting a little but it looks they are in a good place now. What could have been. What would PU be ranked if they were unbeaten at this point?

Or Big Dog didn't get hurt, or Bavis didn't get hurt. It's always been a long journey of "damn it"s ... therefore, I only think about this year and this team

Don't make me cry.

Considering the "why" that was discussed by one of the team (over confidence) regarding why they played poorly in the Bahamas, if we had won those two games, we would have needed to beat Villanova, and if we had done that, the big headedness would have carried into the next few games. We'll never know, but I sinerely doubt we would be undefeated.

Give yourself a Christmas gift Mandiville and look forward not backward...It really is a much brighter view...Not trying to be sarcastic but what if all those other teams that were ranked higher than we were back then had not also been upset? The "what if " game is always a loser in the long run... Enjoy the "now" and look forward to the "future". It's much more fun!

Had they won vs Tenn and WKU, Arizona probably would have knocked them off. #TheCircleofPurdue I’ll take the actual outcomes and current state of play. Boiler Up

Easy...#1 since Purdue would have beaten Villanova, the current #1 team. You would obviously drop the Zona win BUT adding a win against UT and Nova would be bigger in the grand scheme of things.

If they had won the Tn game bracket would have been different

Just keep moving forward and let's have no more "what ifs".
