On to Purdont!
- Thread starter wbrhawkeye
- Start date
If Iowa doesn't take care of the basketball, doesn't shore up it's rebounding and makes poor decisions on offense, they'll be 6 and 2 come 10pm on Tuesday.
Purdue is just as quick as Gonzaga and have shown to be effective going to the basket and shooting the 3. They've owned us more often then not....

Should be a 7 to 9 point favorite. Would love to get off to a 2-0 start in the Big ten next week.. if not I think it’s time to adjust expectations (at least for me)..
I hate them as much as the Cardinals!!!!

Better show up Hawks. Don't let Zags "beat you twice".
Purdue is a team that's getting better and better and Painter one of most underrated coaches in country. Must come to play and play to win

They don't have the bald guy that owns us anymore, so we stand a chance.
Even at his height, the giant is gonna be in over his head
We are a better shooting team than we were last year but I don't see us replicating what we did last year against you. This will be a rare game we miss Matt Haarms. I think he was a rare player that could kinda somewhat slow Garza a little because of his length and his mobility. Neither of our current bigs have a prayer of guarding him. Defensively, we just don't do a great job defending the three point line yet. Notre Dame shot very well against us from outside. I think we will be better at it by the end of the year but there's still some work to do there and playing you will hopefully accelerate that.
I like the improvements I've seen from us the past couple weeks as we've gained experience and got healthy. I don't think we are ready to win this game yet. I think Iowa should win by 10ish this week, possibly more if we play poorly. You guys are so good offensively this year that any game you play is a potential blowout if the opposition is off that day.
There's the door
Na...biden is owned by china not Russia
There will be an epic melt down on here if the hawks lose to Purdue 😟
This probably is a must win game if they have any hope of winning the big ten

Far from a must win
Meltdown....probably lol
Stupid post. I’m not a trump fan but you’re a freaking idiot.
Matt Painter is a good coach; never underestimate that guy
it will be interesting go see how they defend us
and how will Iowa respond to a disappointing loss?
Purdue plays good defense....they will put pressure on our outside shooters. They have two centers that bring two completely different attributes with which to guard Garza. As we have seen, every B10 team is dangerous on any given day. We will have to play better in almost every aspect than we did against Gonzaga if we are to win this game.....we can win and we should win....we need to win this game on our home court so that we can position ourselves for a run at the championship.
All that said....last year they freakin blitzed us twice.....twice.

Possible, but if you look at the box scores of the two meetings last year, it might be the opposite. It might be the "Let Garza get his 25 and shut down everybody else" strategy. Purdue's defense is not as good as last year though, especially 3 point defense, so I'm not sure that is a winning strategy this year.
Can't lose twice to Gonzaga.....must turn around and handle Purdue. Ge the Gonzaga game out of their heads and play tough aggressive ball.
every team is going to do this from here on out. Garza’s got to kick it out to the open man a lot faster if we want to have easy 3 opportunities
I don’t remember the road game vs Purdue last year because I don’t want to. That being said in the home game, they started doubling the moment the post pass went in the air. They left Connor open and he led Iowa in 3 point attempts with 8.
