For those of us who don't drink, we face adversity head-on and most times remember the pain WE felt, LOL.
Was the halftime show not entertaining enough? What was the last straw?
You give up 11 for 20 from 3pt line in a game, you are likely losing. You give that up in 1/2 of B-ball , that is Fran Ball at its worst. Need to be able to be able to play man defense and run guys off the 3pt line, you can't sit back in zone when you are getting shredded..
Look at Purdue defense...they shut down JoeW and Fredrick from 3. The guys they don't care about ...Connor, Pemsl, JoeT, Bakari could have their fill of 3pt shots.
Kriener hasn't made a 3pt shot in 3 or 4 games now.
Iowa was due for one of these. Purdue has had their number for years up there. It would be nice if Connor, Joe T, Evelyn and Pemsl would at least occasionally look at the basket but it is what it is. Not sure CJ has played a worse half this year. Might be a good game to pull the plug on the starters if there isn't a major surge early in the second half. Rest some legs and embrace the wood shed.
Iowa was down 21 at half against Tennessee in the tourney. Came back and brought it to overtime in second half. Comeback is possible but need many breaks
oh for **** sake. Seriously.
with that said, don’t you hate it when you look forward to a game all day long only for it to pretty much be over in 10 minutes? Bummer. Oh well. Move on to the next.
And DePaul would be highly ranked, too, if they played every game like they played at Iowa.
This is incredible. One of those games where I just sit here and hope nobody gets hurt.
And I was going to drive over to the game before the snow started to look legit. Thank you snow!!
The most frustrating thing for me is the hawks get back in the hunt then have a game like this. How many times over thw last 10 years have the hawks been in the hunt only to whither down the home stretch?
Purdue scored 61.....total against NW in their previous game.
Purdue is crashing the offensive boards and having success. Iowa is trying to get out and run by leaking out and Purdue is making them pay. That would be why it feels like everything is going in. Even if they miss, they rebound and put it back. That is execution and hustle. You are right about the 3 ball though, Purdue is enfuego .......
Most points a Matt Painter coached team has ever scored in a half vs a big ten team. And Purdue is last in fg percentage in big ten.
I shouldn’t even care at this point, but that was 5 seconds. What a slow count
Okay I see what's wrong.
Why in the f*** are we sagging back so much?
Are we so f***ing worried about taking away their inside game?
It's not like us getting caught too low is taking away their ability to drive, so I have no f***ing clue why they're so soft on defense tonight......

This. Don’t mind Purdue getting red hot from the three. That happens. But bothers me that we are failing at defensive rebounding.
I just turned it on. Wtf????? This is bigtime choke city on the road....
Btw, just saw the guy that plays for Purdue that graduated highschool in 1992.
