**** Hawks @ Boilers Game Thread****

Stop the bleeding

 

[Carolina Hawk]

Joe W needs to learn how to rebound.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

This is 100% about effort at the moment. Purdue wants it more, they get it.

Has Joe W. touched the ball more than 1 time yet?

 

[Franisdaman]

Purdue has 17 pts in 4 minutes.

170 in 40 minutes?

Hopefully not. Iowa only averages 80 ppg.

 

[HawkLogic]

I would have put in Kriener and gone bigger into the 17-0 run since we are getting killed on boards Pretty lazy effort on the boards.

 

[unoHawkeye]

I wonder if it would help if the Hawks tried boxing out and contesting shots? Guards getting their pockets picked by Purdue big men is a bad look too

 

[2432Hawk]

Let's relax a bit. Lotta game left. Let's see how we respond to getting punched in the face

 

[CEDHawk]

Good game boys. They must be more worried about Nebraska coming to town

 

[DougERot]

Robbie Hummel needs to recuse himself

Do you feel the same way when Jess is the color guy on Iowa broadcasts?

 

[Robster Raws]

Losing on the road is one thing. Not showing up and getting dominated by an average is another.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Off to a slow start. Won't last.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Someone said our offense was too good for long scoring droughts...
0-17 run begs to differ. Exactly the start that Purdue needed

 

[wilson reborn]

Purdue offensive rebounding is ridiculous. Bring in Kriener.

 

[ChiHawk1985]

Iowa is a second half team, especially when in striking distance at half. Very, very long way to go here so I'm not worried but would like to see the intensity step up a few notches (especially on the boards).

Gotta just inch the gap closed a little at a time

 

[mazda1]

There’s a lot of the game to play. These guys have earned our support.

 

[skydog0784]

Keep pounding it down low to Garza. Need to get JW and CJF some looks to open things up. They're daring JT and CM to shoot it.

Plenty of time boys. Claw your way back into this one.

 

[Franisdaman]

Purdue offensive rebounding is ridiculous. Bring in Kriener.

Fran's teams have never been known to be interested in rebounding.

 

[denmar81]

Exactly right, effort is lacking. Lazy rebounding. Were getting 1 shot on offense with few in rebounding position. Shoot the ball and get back to play D.

 

[Moral]

Turns on game late. WTF

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

This is a shame because Purdue is NOT this good.

 

[Harbinger273]

Last game took something out of these guys leaving us a bit flat on a Wednesday night on the road. Gotta fight and claw back into this one!

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Turns on game late. WTF

Unfortunately the team did too.

 

[briggshawk]

Gross

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Might want to close out of the 3pt line

 

[O-townHawkstar]

jump into defender and draw the foul Wiesy.

 

[markfromj]

Really weak.

 

[meatloaf55]

Purdue has soooo many offensive rebounds

 

[DougERot]

Hurray! Bench points!

 

[Harbinger273]

Defense didn't make the trip or is having current out of body experience.

 

[iahawks10]

Purdue is playing out of their mind doesn’t help

 

[O-townHawkstar]

Bean stalk Purdue guy with goofy ass hair whining to his coach to save face. Fing Hilarious. About as much as the way Iowa is playing tonight. Come on Guys this sux!

 

[meatloaf55]

How has Purdue lost 10 times?

 

[Carolina Hawk]

jump into defender and draw the foul Wiesy.

He is scared of contact apparently.

 

[hawkedoff]

We are fine. They are on fire. If they stay on fire they will win. guessing it will cool off.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Bean stalk Purdue guy with goofy ass hair whining to his coach.

No Haarm in that.

 

[Moral]

Purdue looking to score over 120.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Our brains are not engaged at all on defense. Feet look like they are in cement. No anticipation, late on help, standing while shots go up. Purdue shooting really well to make it worse.

On offense, too much standing and not enough ball rotation.

Just a bad start.

 

[skydog0784]

PU can't possibly continue this torrid pace from the 3. Keep feeding Garza. Sooner or later Joe W and CJF will get some looks. Plenty of time yet.

 

[HawkLogic]

Purdue going off from 3pt line, meanwhile JoeW and Fredrick can barely
get a look.

 

[Robster Raws]

Our zone is burying us. Guys are chasing shooters who are just stepping into threes.

Gotta pray we cut the lead to 7-9 by half.
