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

[Hawksfor3]

Stop hitting 3s from half court please

When the arc on Haarm's 3 almost touched the jumbotron, You knew it was falling their way lol.

This is Purdue. They play like top 5-10 team at home, especially shooting the 3. On the road they fold easily. Just completely different teams

Agreed, but Iowa has given them a big assist in how they are playing

 

[DTP2]

Does anyone ever shoot 4 for 33 against us?

 

[skydog0784]

Get it under 12 by half and there's a chance

I was going to post this same thing. Get it to to 12 points or so going into the half and we have a chance - perhaps remote.

They can't possibly continue to shoot at this pace even though our perimeter defense sucks.

I think in DePaul game thread I talked about how sometimes a team gets in a zone, like everybody is ultra-connected, everything is in rhythm, ball always gets to the right guy on time on target, and everybody is making everything. It’s uncanny how perfectly Purdue is playing. Execution and effort basically perfect.

Character of Iowa is tested now. Play your ass off rest of the way, live with the results.

 

[BubsFinn]

Holy SHIT they missed a 3!

 

[unoHawkeye]

Yes, Iowa has done an awful job at boxing out, but this game has also featured Purdue shooters who are normally mediocre cashing threes (sometimes highly contested) at a ridiculous rate. Just dumb. Not even that mad with what’s happening right now

 

[ShawneeHawk 1]

Holy shit Purdue missed a 3.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

I'm not signing off on you yet Iowa basketball. Unlike some of these poseur fans in here.

Absolutely. I'm still watching. SOMEHOW cut into this lead. Purdue has to cool off at some point, right?

 

[BubsFinn]

WTF was that horn?

 

[TDJ7]

Get it to under 13 by half and we win this.

 

[briggshawk]

Ummm, if you don't think Purdue is out hustling Iowa you are crazy.

 

[DougERot]

When was the last time Iowa didn't play like somebody slipped a roofie into their water when they went to Purdue?[/Q

Iowa has lost 9 of their last 10 in West Lafayette

 

[Hawksfor3]

We need @VicHawkeye to help us get this win.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

My forecast is that Purdue falls in love with the 3 and stops hitting.

Huge comeback coming!

 

[Moral]

WTF was that horn?

They should T up Purdue if it happens again.

 

[anon_2zMXH429BhxV1Npk]

Haha that flop.

 

[PlazaHawkeye]

What a fun game... if you are a Purdue fan.

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

Just settle in and see if Iowa can’t give up 70 before half

 

[iahawks10]

Nice flop

 

[wilson reborn]

11 threes in first half for Purdue

 

[Hawktagonapus]

Look at our schedule and tell me I’m wrong

You're wrong

 

[RocknRollface]

After Saturday, Iowa has a lot of road games. NCAA tournament is far from a lock, we may be in the midst of the Fran February melt down.

It's a lock. Even you're not that dumb.

Please keep predicting otherwise though. It can only help.

 

[Hawktagonapus]

Pathetic flop

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Nice flop

Thought they were supposed to call that CRAP

 

[HawkInArk]

Boilers average 67 points a game.

Absolutely. I'm still watching. SOMEHOW cut into this lead. Purdue has to cool off at some point, right?

At some point. Right?

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Boilers average 67 points a game.

Hitting that by half

 

[anon_2zMXH429BhxV1Npk]

This is just comical.

 

[briggshawk]

Iowa is getting run out of the building, holy shite.........

 

[BubsFinn]

Whatever garbage they throw toward the bucket goes in. Clear the bench and let some guys rest for the next game.

 

[denmar81]

Glad they're penalizing the floppers this year.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

And one for Kriener. Don't fall asleep refs

 

[Hawktagonapus]

They can just throw up anything and it goes in

 

[longliveCS40]

Worst defensive effort I've seen, possibly ever.

 

[meatloaf55]

Woah this is really insane

 

[justinjdry]

Did Purdue drink a bunch of cocaine juice before the game or what?!

 

[iahawks10]

Thought they were supposed to call that CRAP

Unfortunately, they did. SMH

 

[DougERot]

You're wrong

Iowa hasn't defeated a good team on the road in the Big10 all season. In fact they have lost to some really bad teams, ie Nebraska and Michigan so we shouldn't be surprised they are struggling tonight.

 

[Hawk Writer]

Even the guy that looks like a Church League Player has buried two 3's
