Ugh Purdue...

Purdue is in big trouble down 5 in double OT. Probably my fault because I went for a run when they were up 11.

Ouch Purdont, 1 and done.

Well, it happens.

I watched the better part of the second half and the OT's. Where was Haas and Swanigan? Neither one was in foul trouble and Hammons didn't have a particularly good game. Of course, the Purdue guards sucked and couldn't feed the post if their lives depended on it.

Oh well....I guess it is just the ole 5/12 jinx. Two of them already.

Big 10 sucks.

See other thread about Baylor losing as 5 seed.

Bracket buster.

Clones on easy street. NC is not having one shining moment either.

Me too. Come back to find it in Double over time with Purdue's last possession down two. Looked like a foul to me on their last shot.

I agree with the foul. Hill lost his arm on the way up.

To the other poster about their bigs, I was wondering the same thing. I assumed Haas was in foul trouble or fouled out. I know he had an issue with cramping early but thought he was fine. I was blown away when I watched Purdue in overtime. How do you not utilize your big men? Did Hammons even get the ball in a position to score once?

Also, lack of a point guard killed Purdue. Little Rock had what, 14 steals? They must have watched the Iowa tape and noticed Purdue couldn't handle the press.
