*****Official Purdue @ IOWA Game Thread*****

Not a single person saw this coming. I figured a solid showing due to the seniors and experience, maybe a middle of the B1G 6-7 seed. The real X factor has been the bench. Uhl has stepped up huge along with Baer and Wagner. Ellingson hit some huge shots this game. Just a great team. This is so much fun to watch.

I thought Uthoff would be All B1G, but not 1st team All America. THe bench is huge key as mentioned. I did not see this year coming in either football or basketball.
 
Remember when most Hawk fans (me included) thought we'd have trouble competing with PD's frontline?​
 
GO HAWKS!

Played poorly and still thrashed Rutgers on the road. Played well, especially well in the second half, and out played a ranked opponent with hostile officiating and lead by double digits most of the half and won by double digits.

I hate to say this but this squad might be really really good.
Yah, I think they're pretty damn good. Doesn't mean they can't lose one at some point. Hell, Purdue got beat by freakin' Illinois a couple of weeks ago. Figure that one out. But we have swept Mich St and Purdue in the same season. I can die with a smile.
 
Didn't say it was an excuse, but it was a fact.
the beauty of winning big is you can bitch about the refs with impunity. I really thought the refs were pretty good with the exception of a few truly horrendous calls.
