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

Ok sports fans, tomorrow's the big showdown in what UB calls "The Faucet Center." I'm going to guess the average pick is Wisky by five. Most Purdue fans will guess a one point game or Wisky by five. Most IU fans will take Wisky to win by 5-10.

I'm going to make a bid to win the title of "Biggest Homer of the Weekend" and take Purdue by five!

*edit Wow, 100% of respondents have Purdue winning by five, so that's encouraging.

this is a perfect example of selective or bias sampling...

Although I'm pullin' for you guys, gotta take Wisky by 10.

I wish somebody would beat these bastards in their own house.

We will do our best. I think the only way it gets to double digits is if one of the teams is up 7-9 points late and there are intentional fouls and bad 3 point shots. I have been wrong before, but both teams play a rugged, slow down, methodical kind of game. That usually results in low scoring, close games.

With me saying that though, I'd expect a fast paced game played over 80 points with one team winning by 15. :P

As I've said camden, I haven't gotten a chance to see Purdue play this year. Just a few highlights here and there.

I'll see what they're made of tonight, I'd love to see anybody beat these guys on their own floor this year.

Good luck.

Its all good, your prediction is completely valid, heck even UB's beloved Vegas odds have UW the 10 ponit favorite. If I wasn't a poor college kid, I'd be all over that.

You should definitely try and catch the game though, most of your complaints about IU will be shown from the Purdue side. Its not always pretty, but they move on offense, pass, cut, set picks, play tough defense, pick up full court. I mean, I could just watch the game on repeat all night long, partly because I love Purdue, but mainly because of the way the play.

UW is definitely tough at home, but we did go into the Breslin Center and went toe to toe with MSU (minus Hummel), so I think we will put up a fight. We may not win, but we won't back down. I expect it to be physical and ugly at times, like every other UW game.
