Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Purdue vs Illni

IU vs Illni

They played better vs us and we still won by more. I have heard alot of "ohh well they circled us on the calender crap" and "this is UI's super bowl" Well the stats don't lie that much, IU barley pulled out a win and Bloomington and the same thing happened in champaign with 2OT.

They are setting us up for false hope of us coming out of IU with a "W"

IU will play good against us when we are down there...........we're still gonna make the tournament and hopefully will get another shot at IU in the BTT. I think you're letting yourself get a little too excited.

Is it possible Purdue will win? definate yes

likely? not really

Don't quite see how they played much better against us. They turned it over more, shot just terrible from 3, and didn't play any D. UI played better in different parts of the game. But thats part of the matchups, they went inside on us because we couldn't handle Pruitt and Randle, and went outside against IU's zone.

Its encouraging that I think we handled UI's defense better than IU did. Overall, I think we matchup pretty well with IU minus the DJ White matchup, but Painter is can scheme around that. Depending on how the game is called, our pressure D will cause turnovers and if we can get easy buckets from that, we will be in good shape. Plus, if they play zone, we have handled that well the last few times we have seen it, especially if Grant can get on, with Hummel, Calasan, Martin, and Moore all able to hit the deep shot. Should be a good game

hopefully we come in confident that we can win the game but not really "cocky" based on how IU has played against similar opponents.

turdue misfits: Without McCarney playing completely OUT OF HIS MIND, IU wins by double digits.

That dUI crowd was crazy and IT WAS THEIR SUPERBOWL. Even you losers admitted it wasn't even close to a sell out when you played them and the crowd was very quiet.

Bottom line: teams get up for IU because they are ranked, have marquee players, national reputation etc while Turdue sails under the radar because, well, they have been horrid for so long.

Get ready for a complete clown stomping Feb 19th

I've been saying it and I'll keep saying it. Purdue matches up insanely well against IU IF Calasan can play decently against White. Grant or Kramer (I say Grant) can contain Gordon, fluster him and make him turn it over like he's crazy-prone to do. As long as White isn't having a hay-day down low, the rest of the team falls apart. Not Gordon and White had a whopping 12 points at Wisconsin. IU managed an entire 3 points of the bench. And IU claims to be deep? Purdue plays pretty much the exact same style. In a neutral court game, I give advantage Purdue, hands down. At IU, I'd still normally say advantage IU, but the Hoosiers are playing like crap, so I'm gonna say we got a decent shot of pulling that upset. But it will not be a blow-out, guaranteed.

If McCamey didn't play out of his mind, we would have won by double digits.


Hmmmmm........

That's like saying if Purdue pulled their heads out of their asses they could beat Woffard. Or if MSU found the basket they could of beat Iowa. Or if Hummel wasn't out Purdue could of beat MSU. But we had our heads in our asses, MSU couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, and Hummel was indeed on the bench for the MSU game. These things happend and cannot be refuted. sure you might have won huge if McCarney played like shit, but he didn't. Thats like saying IU could of beaten Xavier if Xavier just hadn't played so well. Your logic fails you my friend.

boilerupthebutt, Mccarney scored 31 pts which was a career high by 16 points. no one else on the team was really worth a crap besides him. quit acting like he's some stud.

hell, I know if basset scored 40 you slags would be crying how IU only won because of a career game from a role player.

I'm not saying that McCarney is some stud, I'm simply saying on that given night he decided to be one. It's just basketball these things happen, you found a way to win (albeit with some help from Pruitt) anyways, which is what good teams do. Unfortunatly, Purdue was unable to do that earlier in the season and has embarassing losses to Iowa State and Woffard.

Career high by 13. Everybody else on UI made up for McCamey's great night by playing equally bad. Meacham is a 40%+ 3 point shooter, went 1-8 with pretty much all good looks. Pruitt is a bad FT shooter, but not 1-7 bad.

UI played like UI does every game. They shot normal percentages, played with their normal intensity, and choked like the normally do.
