IU VS. PURDUE OFFICIAL GAME THREAD (7 PM ET ESPN2)

[FortWayneHoosier 6,108]

POTFB!!!!!!!! 

I will be at this game and I am a little concerned but we always play purdue very well at home, if we only win one more game this season let it be this one!

[LockdownD 2,238]

I'll be there and I'm hoping there won't be any black and gold sitting around me.  It could get ugly in section H.  Protect our house.  Go Hoosiers!

After watching TB get worked by some very average big men this season I'm worried to see him against Swanigan.

Time to man up and leave the emotional antics for pick up games.  We need him to play the way we have expected to see this season.

If he wants to show everyone that he's worth a 1st round draft pick this is his chance to do it. I hope he decides to actually be a post player instead of floating around the 3 point line, and that we make it a point to feed the post.

This game man... I don't know about it

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,282]

I don't know. Morgan guarded Happ.

Morgan might get Swanigan too. I wouldn't be surprised.

Even if we're fortunate enough to slow Biggie down (and I'm not optimisitic about that), one of their other piss ant players will have a career scoring night.  That's the way it's gone for us far too many times.

Yeah idk how we'd guard Haas otherwise. Get ready, De'ron.

It pisses me off that we have to think so long and hard about how we're going to match up with Purdue. Great job by the man in charge. 

[HoosierAloha 30,067]

I haven't watch purdoodoo much but I think they're a better team when Haas isn't in the floor. It seems when he plays long stretches they force feed him and then get lazy moving on the perimeter. Their best lineup is with Swan at the 5, Edwards at the 4, shooters at the 3 and 2, and their freshman guard.

I could see Thompson going apeshit on us though.

Does Purdue ever play Swanigan and Haas at the same time?

It might be the Swanigan(Team)factor but IDK. Kid has played like a top 50 type kid or better.

Screw 'em.

Beat 'em.

 

[johnsoniu 6,400]

All in all, I think we have a chance. Painter has shown on more than one occasion that he is fully capable of being able to out-stupid Crean.

At this point it's not even close. Edwards has produced more and painter counts on him during winning time. Carson had the ball in his hands and got fouled and buried the winning free throws at Maryland. Jones had his moment against Kansas as well but Carson has been way more consistent. Both played on stacked high school teams. Carson (anywhere between 80-90 range). Jones as high as 40 but probably closer 60-70 range). So far advantage Edwards

Aau teammate of fox from Kentucky. Probably under recruited a little with fox taking all the shots if I had to guess. Definitely going to be a really good player when he gets older
