Poor guys. 

 

Purdue is one of the least impressive preseason #1's I've seen in awhile. 

I’m wondering how they are gonna fare as teams get better with NIL.

I've been holding out hope the past few years that eventually they'll become a team that's just pesky and doesn't ever seriously threaten to win anything outside the Big Ten. But I think they're golden as long as they have Painter.

I feel like this season might be the beginning of that. They are gonna start losing some of their key players. Will they be able to replace in the NIL era

Snatched victory from the jaws of nervousness.  That was a tough final 5 to watch.  
We neutralized much of what Purdue does.  Big credit to DeVries on the gameplan.  
 

I mentioned earlier in the year playing Dorn with Wilkerson and DeVries was our option.   That’s proving to be very true.  Jasai and his athleticism on defense is important too.   
 

We battled their bigs much, much better than expected.  Wish we had that Minnesota win and Nebraska win.  We’d be sitting pretty with those 2 Ls flipped to Ws.  
 

10-10 will get us in.   Can we finish the B1G .500?

Painter is an excellent coach but the definition of a system coach. That TKR/Smith PnR is nearly unstoppable when surrounded by 3 shooters but he insists on playing his seven foot oafs 35min a night.  That’s why I felt we had a good chance versus them.

Advanced metrics say yes. Betting Torvik has us as 11-9 After it updates.  We are favored in our next 4
