Purdue will drop a few road games in the Big Ten. Not sure anybody gets them in Mackey, though.

Couple of those were questionable after it went to 5. Fran was about to go ballistic. Can’t blame him.

It’s the Big 1.0 way!!

That cylinder call in the first half could have made the game even more interesting.

Purdue and Wisconsin have always gotten ridiculous foul disparities in their favor when playing at home. With Wisconsin, it's just the general belief that their players are too smart to foul. With Purdue, their crowd just intimidates the officials into not calling them. 

I am sure all the big ten teams said that from 71-01 when IU got a lot of calls at home.  At the time I didn't see it that way but watching a lot of old games during the pandemic made me see how many calls we got

Not terrible but certainly not “good” either. Syracuse and St. John’s are both talented teams but no where near top teams. And we are marginally better. That tells me everything. We are fighting for spot 25-75 type stuff. We were predicted 7-8 by many publications in B1G. Everything I see matches that. Bubble team unless we win a lot of close ones.

Kansas had a similar game against St. John’s as we did except when they made their 2nd half run they put their foot on sju’s neck and poured it on. We let them back in the game twice. That’s talent and experience. We’re not Kansas. But it was a decent road win for a new team with a new coach.

Not trying to be a smart aleck -- but this confused me. What new team with a new coach had a decent road win?

Maryland fires Turgeon and Manning is taking over now.

Rothstein:  Nevada's game at UT Arlington on Tuesday will be cancelled due to issues related to COVID-19. Official announcement expected soon.

Sounds like more than just Alford may have the crap at Nevada.

Probably 95% of Alabama fans aren't even aware their basketball team is playing right now.

Zags cut it to 4 with 6:20 to go
