Villanova v. Purdue Game Thread

[IndySouthsider]

Just tell me why foul there? WHY?

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

Terrible shot by VE

he is junk in the 2nd half. he was so money last game.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

73-68 Nova ; 2:30 left.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Gotta make a late push Boilers.

 

[PU pit bull]

FTs and TOs...............SMH

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

ugh....just can't get over the hump, guys.

 

[BoiledSteel]

FTs and TOs...............SMH

All fixable and I think will be fixed. The game is withing reach while we are playing like crap, much reason for optimism.

 

[PU pit bull]

Biggie.............thank you

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

awwwwwwwww here we go. FINISH!

 

[TyroneShoolaces]

These refs are calling WAY too many fouls....both ways. Every contact

 

[PU pit bull]

Hmmmmmmmmm....... Feed the interior where we can dominate.......sounds like a plan

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Cmon Boilers!

Nova 73-72; 0:59 left

It's a Matt Painter team. Hard to imagine FTs being a strong suit. Would have put us the lead instead of 1 down with a minute to go.

 

[BoiledSteel]

If ever you were going to play zone, now would be a real good time to toss it in and confuse nova a bit while protecting players with foul trouble.

 

[cprh9u]

Almost there... come on Boilers!!!

If I recall right, we were rather decent with FTs last season.

They shot .742 as a team last year . that is pretty good

 

[BoilerDaddy]

Fun game. I hate some of the cheap foul calls though.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Nova 75-74 with the ball @ TO, 0:31 left.

 

[PU pit bull]

Only the officials had an answer for Haas tonight..........LOL

 

[BoiledSteel]

Lot of hyperbole when hating I guess.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

yes. 12-19 tonight.

 

[ahhculdee]

We aren't going to win .

Can't wait for Haas to put the winning shot through the cylinder!!

 

[BoiledSteel]

They just don't know how to call a good game with someone his size.

 

[PU pit bull]

No whistles there.......................typical Mackey officiating

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

77-76 Nova, 0:14 left.

 

[PU pit bull]

They just don't know how to call a good game with someone his size.

Hopefully by the time he is a senior they can figure it out

 

[cprh9u]

We aren't going to win .

We still can!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Boilers force a time out.

 

[BoiledSteel]

My hope isn't high.

 

[cprh9u]

22 fouls on Nova to 19 on us.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Brunson fouled, will shoot two with 12.1 left.

 

[cprh9u]

Boilers force a time out.

Nice to be on the other end of that!

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Hit em both.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

79-76 Nova wins.....good effort Boilers, but too many mistakes to pull it out.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Nice to be on the other end of that!

that's for certain.

 

[*Shockerrr*]

Biggie great game but C'mon dude!!!! Don't play hero, plenty of time.

 

[ahhculdee]

Too many turnovers. Hold on the dang ball.

 

[dwhitebash11]

Great game, turnovers and foul trouble killed us... Refs weren't too bad, maybe a +2 calls for Villanova on the road, but it's over and done with... I like where this team is headed...
