Armaan Franklin’s stroke looks bad. His footwork is noticeably worse.

Let’s go PSU!!!!
Down 2 with 4 minutes left in the game.

Notice when PSU started coming back in this game? They started getting wide open looks from deep and then hit some really contested shots. PSU isn’t going to beat many Big 1.o teams making twos.

Okay but so has pretty much every other top 25 team? Even IU has done that. 
 

Rutgers, NC State, Wisconsin, and even the Iowa (without Keegan Murray) game they have really struggled. I am sure they will beat IU but to crown them as a final four team is just puzzling to me after what they have shown

Well they have one of the best guards in the nation and they play hard. That's enough to get attention. Problem for them, they are now the hunted and not the hunter. It's much different when you have the target on your back. About like the 12-13 team for us.

I mentioned this back in November when everyone was losing their sh*t about how unstoppable they looked against UNC (who isn't good this year), but Purdue had a leg up on most teams early on because they returned so much and didn't have to integrate any transfers. That advantage is tapering off as other teams find their footing and everyone gets acclimated to their new systems. I wouldn't write them off as a Final Four team, because all it takes is a busted bracket and the right matchups, but they aren't as good as they were made out to be.

It was one I was looking forward to watching.   I will watch the rest of the game I missed later tonight or tomorrow.  Seton Hall is a team I really like to watch

Nebrasketball off to a good start at Rutger. I hope we’re not the proverbial sacrificial lamb for Nebrasketball in a few weeks.

Still wish teams would do a lot less dribbling and more player and ball movement by the pass.  To me this is just not an entertaining style of basketball to watch.

Agree with that. I wonder how much of that is today's kids growing up in the NBA era of take your man off the dribble one on one play. That's probably been how they have played their entire lives.

This is what you got.  Coming in here and wishing it was different every week isn’t going to change anything.   There are certain teams that fit your style of play still out there today to watch.

North Carolina is taking Virginia out back with a beat down.    
More I watch Wake the more I feel LaRavia would of been a big get for IU.    Cuse up 1 with 2 min to go in the first half.   

Ok St up 9 on Texas in the first half

Okie State has a ton of athletes and length. It looks like they just put it on the rim and go get it. Just as I type this dude hits a stupid contested fadeaway jumper. Not high percentage but made it.

Didn’t UVA just win at Cuse and UNC has been blown out by more than one not so good team? The ACC seems drunk.

May I complain when a player gives up a sure layup to kick it out for a 3.
