Purdue -12:5
O/U 160 pts

Hoping Purdue starts out cold and hawks can capitalize. It’s a tall order and a less than 10 point loss would certainly be a small victory.

Go hawks!

I demand that we win this game.

Thank you.

Keegan will be fine if he can keep from aggravating it tonight. The trainers and natural adrenaline will do the trick. But there aren't many scenarios where that will matter much. It would appear Iowa's only path to victory, or even a competitive game, is to shoot the lights out. Anything less, knowing Purdue's talent and Iowa's history at Mackey, would seem destined for disaster. Expect the worst. Hope for the best.

Boy I hope so

No prediction, but keeping expectations reasonable at least until the last 5 min. of regulation. Play hard as usual, defend, and do a good job limiting turnovers as we have done. Playing the number 2 ranked team at their place is daunting for sure, but if we remain fundamentally sound, it could be interesting.

 

[Suterman]

Better Hawkeye teams have been clobbered by worse Purdue teams @ Mackey Arena. If we keep it under 10 it will be a miracle. Hawks lose by 28.

 

[AlvySinger]

Me too.

Me three

Good luck tonight… You’re one of the few Other Big 10 teams I actually pull for… Fran’s a good coach and a close friend of Painter’s.

Izzo used to love Lickliter. Successful coaches tend to like guys they can beat.


Fran has done okay with Purdue at Carver, but Mackey has been bad for Iowa.

 

[IllQChawk]

Sure hope Mulvey and Ogundele get some mop up time in the 2 half. Really high on Riley from what I've seen of him, but not so much on Josh as some on here are. As young as Riley is, he just seems to be more advanced in center skills then Josh is at this time, but I'm sure that others feel much differently.

Mulvey and Ogundele combine for 13 minutes, 2 rebounds, 1 block, 1 point and 10 fouls! 😏 Go Hawks!

 

[JRHawk2003]

Hawks will get crushed. I am not watching any. Pointless tonight.

Focus on Illini next week. We can win that one.

Sit him tonight. He matters to the whole season. This game is lost already.

 

[NewVicHawkeye]

Hawkeye victory tonight.

If either one sees the floor tonight that's probably a bad sign.

I'll take the over.....

If Keegan is questionable he should sit. Risking further injury just to lose tonight would be crazy Throw everyone to the wolves and see if they can survive.

Dear Most Hatred Rival,

I say this with complete sincerity when I say that

[Carlton]

Go Hawks!

 

[Franisdaman]

check this out & watch

Ask and you shall receive.

 

[BioHawk]

Sounds like Keegan is out tonight. This won't be pretty. At least we get Purdue again at home in a couple of months.

 

[unoHawkeye]

Keegan a no go. I’ll watch until Iowa’s out of it then I’m out

 

[SCHawkFan]

 

[BioHawk]

I'll call it an accomplishment if Iowa isn't playing the bottom of the bench with 12 minutes left in the game.

 

[QChawks]

well this isn’t ideal, shit

line has quickly jumped up to Purdue 15.5
