I think Purdue hires students to scour record books and databases to come up with as many obscure, trivial accomplishments as possible. We never hear about milestones like this from anyone else in the conference, nor do we ever hear other Big Ten teams constantly mention their record against another team. 

For $2, I could count their national championships.

Gonzaga beating the living hell out of BYU in Provo. 1st time I’ve seen them since the Bama loss. My Lord, Holmgren looks like a different dude. If this is his new normal, wow.

They are also catching BYU playing its worst basketball.  Three straight losses coming, all in bad fashion....lost to Santa Clara, 6 win Pacific, and then lost at home by 14 to San Francisco.

Espn + over here and on a tv on mute 

they lucked out today.   Hit a 3 to send it to OT with 3 sec left and they are pulling away in OT 

This was extra brutal for me b/c they were the last leg of a 6 game parlay for me. Got the first 5 correct but had Belmont covering -12.5.

OT

That last ASU possession… why attack when you can shoot a low percentage three that might get you a highlight on Top 10?!!!!

ASU is going to win

No idea on the reliability of the original tweeter --

Unnamed sources within the UE administration have indicated that Men's basketball head coach Todd Lickliter is expected to step aside sometime prior to the Aces (5-16) next game Tuesday at the Ford Center.

Holy crap that program is a dumpster fire.

As a Resident, I can confirm that he is gone, as UE’s athletic programs are exploding. Tomorrow is going to be a big day for Evansville, since USI is voting to transition into D1, which will stir up some things

Wyoming has a test tonight on the road at Fresno St.

Al Durham enjoying some success at Providence. Didn't realize they reached 20 wins and had 5 (?) quad 1 wins. Good on him.

5 Q2 wins as well.   They are rolling.  They also beat Purdue in a secret scrimmage before they season started

Iona down 9 with 3:48 to go at Niagara.  Would be Paulus biggest win I would guess 

[IUFootballHappyHappyJoyJoy]

IUPUI is very grim this year, even for them.  Currently, they only have seven players on their entire roster who can dress, and six that are available to play.  One or two more injuries would be enough to cause them to forfeit the rest of the season.

Doesn't help that their only two wins are against Spalding, a D-III school that KenPom was gracious enough to give them (but the NCAA still doesn't count in their NET rankings) and East-West, a school that... exists, but only plays one sport (so that win definitely will not count).

Sometimes I wonder if IUPUI should even have athletics.  The women's team is trying, but the school doesn't care.

Niagara is going to win it.   This is why low and mid majors have a hard time getting at large bids.  They basically play Nebraska type teams all year and are asked to win pretty much all of them for consideration.
