After a good start by Boilers now look rattled. Should beat these guys by double digits.
Sweet Sixteen: Purdue vs. Texas Tech: Stats, Predictions, and Game Thread
- Thread starter JohnnyDoeBoiler

It isn’t tough calls killing the Boilers. It’s the Boilers.
Rough finish.....maybe good to get into half and settle down.....need a much better half or there is no tomorrow.....Cmon Boilers.....show us what you got.
Jeesh, it's whine city on here. Boilers are just playing bad.
Well........... a lil bit of both..
Purdue scores 10 points in the final 13:30 of the first half.
Also have 10 TO’s...
Those were two of my major keys to the game that couldn’t happen

No. Playing better athletes. Mathias taken out. Carsen taken out. Leaves Vince and PJ. Not enough.
Figure it out team. Hell we're only down 5. I still expect us to win. We are a 2nd half team. Go Boilers!!!!
TT reminds a little of West Virginia. A lot of grabbing, slapping, use a lot of players, foul enough that refs can’t call them all.
Bad final 2 minutes. We need to come out strong. Time for Dakota to help contribute. The law firm of Edwards & Edwards need to hold court this half
I’m so tired of this massacre in the paint then call touch fouls on the perimeter bullshit. Jesus it’s ridiculous.
Not really. Purdue is making stupid mistakes and Carsen is forcing it. He hasn't been taken out. Purdue needs better ball movement, which isn't happening right now.
Attack the rim like we did to start the game and we’ll be fine.
Terrible flow of the offense for the last 12 min of half.
The ball needs to be moving quicker from side to side to create open looks or driving lanes for Vince and Carsen.
One on one play will not get it done.

I am a Painter supporter , but quit subbing so often. We were rolling early on, but he has to sub.
ok, you now realize what the refs are going to call and not going to call. make some adjustments, and don't blame the refs. Play some better ball. make some shots. Don't turn the ball over. A quick three point shot to start the second half and it will be a 2 point ball game. WV was beating Villinova by 5 in the second half and lost by 12. it can be done.
I am surprised they have called that many against them
The first 5 minutes of the second half will determine the winner of this game. Both coaches have to make offensive adjustments.
I'm just glad Painter was smart enough to put PJ back in but unhappy it took him so long. That seven minutes he was off the court is why we're now as far behind.

When a team is that athletic, I think the refs look at it as they get themselves in position to defend and can't be fouling. That phantom charge on Carsen is a good example.
A couple halftime observations:
1: Purdue has 10 TO’s due mostly to dumb plays. They average 10 a game.
2: Purdue has only 4 assist...they average 16 per game
3: Purdue has not taken a single FT...they aren’t being aggressive
4: TT only with 5 fouls...that is simply unbelievable with the game I watched.
5: I absolutely hate to say this but this appears to be another big game where Mathias gets shut out or relegated to an inconsequential night. I know he hasn’t hit some big shots and has had some big games, but Purdue isn’t going to win if he doesn’t get his averages.
6: Purdue could lose this game by 15 or more points if they aren’t careful to start the second half. If they come out like they did against Butler for the second half, TT will get to double digits quick.
