Kenpom dropped them 11 spots after this game, all the way down to 23. This might be one of those years where their AP ranking sits about 8-10 spots above where the metrics say they should be.

First Purdue non-conference regular season loss since December 8, 2020. First November loss since 2019. Inject this in my veins, please.

It feels like Purdue's big non-con games are always against the same teams.

Do yourself a favor and turn off ESPN. We're ranked #5 for a reason. The committee isn't just pulling random names out of thin air when selection day arrives. The only way I see us not getting in is if we get absolutely embarrassed at OSU and then win ugly over Purdue, and even that might not drop us 8 spots.

Ijowe has had her hands all over Garzon today, and keeps whipping her head back whenever Garzon shrugs her off.

Here come the flops from the Cardinal.

Damn, where were these versions of CMM and Garzon in the first three games?

This would be SO much funnier if I could get the video to post here, but... Every time I think Purdue has exhausted all realistic opportunities for embarrassment, they find another way. A receiver caught a potential touchdown pass behind the pylon because he didn't realize he was out of bounds. How did that happen? Because Purdue was somehow dumb enough to paint the end zone grass the same color as the grass surrounding it. It's 100% basketball season now in West Lafayette.

Jerry Palm had BYU at #2 this week. lmao

There are worse things to do in November than not play a full 40 minutes. But I'm still not looking forward to Atlantis like I wanted to be.

Thanks!

Score? ESPN stopped updating at the 5:32 mark.

I don't think it's even his defense. I think he just took Archie's defense and tried to make it better. At least that's how it looks to me.

Of course. Wouldn't want them to actually score points or anything.

Now that we're actually good at football and have big games in November (and beyond!) to discuss, does anyone else find themselves looking at certain basketball schools with godawful football teams and fans who are now hyper-focused on basketball and think to themselves, "what a bunch of dorks"?
