This doesn't sound good.

“We did everything we had to do, we just kind of ran out of gas,” Izzo said.

With a short turn around not thinking there will be much recharging.

Purdue played on Friday also. Slight advantage to MSU since we’re at home. But if Hall is out, gonna need some big games out of a few guys.

Why has there been such radio silence? I mean it seems like somebody would leak something by now. I guess we’re going to find out during warm-ups.

If this is a Quadrant II Vector 7.5 win, but a Quadrant I Vector 6.5 loss, would it be better to lose than win?

You’ll probably know first then. Game time decision maybe.

I do not feel like you gave my question adequate consideration, Nigel.

Not we, you. The rest of us received a detailed health update in an email blast that went out at 12:01 a.m. today. You must’ve really pissed Izzo off this time.

Crap.

Next man up. Let’s fucking gooooooooooo

Who here has eligibility left?

Purdue by 10+

These refs are terrible lucky to be this close

Shut up!!!

Where the fuck is everyone you shouldn’t be working! Get the fuck up!!!

Under was the play.
Game will be decided by 3s. I think.

Don’t care if Edey gets 40. Just don’t let them go off from beyond the arc.

28 seconds left, they had a back court violation. We got the ball and only 20 seconds on the shot clock. WTF?

I don’t remember the last time brooks had an impact on a game

Gotta ask why we don’t double edey late there

How does Edey finish with zero fouls?

refs were pretty bad all game(including that weak call on walker in crunch time), which is standard for college basketball. that being said, we weren't really going after edey at all and actually avoiding him.

of course if they called the hook and hold while he tore sissoko down that would have been at least 1

So watching the game off the ball and the amount of shoving that he does the defense of players when the ball is away from him is beyond belief. People were screaming about how he was bending Maddie over. Is it said after the game he didn’t care if he got fined he was pissed.

At what point do you call an officer follow or a defensive foul when both players are absolutely shoving the crap out of each other? We had our chances. Very frustrating game.

. Voice to text.

I knew when they called a non contact foul on walker and Loyer made both that the officials decided to take the game away from the players. We got raw dogged.

They spread the court pretty well.

Sucks being pretty close to 6-1

In 70 combined minutes against MSU, Dainja from Illinois and Eddy from Purdue have had zero fouls called on them. Our centers were good for 11.

This oughta be tweeted at the B1G and a few others.

it was brought up before the game by the announcer that edey has barely been called for foul this year

He takes hook shots on offense, and doesn’t have to reach on defense (he’s just tall and kinda stands there). Doesn’t really get up in the air much to pick up charges or foul guys on defense.
