Question for anyone to answer.... So Purdue puts on their social media that they are the first to 1000 Big Ten wins. But when I count up their conference wins, it only goes to 943... Are they actually counting wins in tournaments?

Not Big 10 tournament games.   No way they got 57 wins in the big 10 tournament

I figured it out. They definitely counted Western Conference wins.

I figured they're counting wins vs current B1G teams before they entered the conference.

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.

Neese couldn’t get a foul call and Valpo pulled away.     Looked like Neese got fouled on a couple shots but no call

TCU down 11 with 12 min to go.   Pack is heating up for K-State 

San Francisco down 5 to Portland with 8:20 to go.   This would be a bad loss

San Francisco ended up winning.   Interesting situation at the end.  San Francisco was up 2 with 7 sec to go and fouled to put Portland on the line for the 1 and 1.  Portland hit the first and missed the second so it worked out.  Don’t see that strategy often

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.

Belmont was down 17 early 2nd half and came back to tie it to take it to OT against TN Tech. It’s on the local PBS station down here. I tried to watch some of it but the announcers are so incredibly redneck they sound like they’re calling a small town Alabama high school football game…it made it unwatchable. I’m trying to power through OT now…

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

Yeah they figured some things out.   Best team in the country in my opinion.  Fully healthy Kentucky team is probably 2nd for me

For $2, I could count their national championships.

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.

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.

UCLA down 6 at Arizona St with 8:11 to go
