Davidson had this one locked up but Bama hit some shots and Loyer has a terrible turn over.   Davidson up 2 with 17 sec to go with the ball and 11 sec to go on shot clock 

And they turn it over.  Bama ball down 2 with 16 sec to go

Bama hits 1 ft but miss the second that would of tied it up with 4 sec to go.   Wow. Canceled games all over and college basketball still delivering

What can you possibly learn  as a team from a game like that? How (not) to schedule?

I realize that getting games at the last minute if Covid affected the schedule have an impact, and you want your guys to play against someone other than teammates, but jeeze...

Well a couple of weeks ago in the NBA Memphis beat OKC by 73 points.

I doubt Calward thought that would be the case.

Western Kentucky destroyed Louisville three days ago.  The game was just recently added as a Covid replacement….Cal knows they are decent.  It’s actually a dangerous opponent to be taking on short notice.

I strictly meant WKU vs. us…it’s a travesty there have been openings in their schedule and they haven’t tried to reach out in some way. 

Ehh…I hate the guy and that program as much as anyone but this is quite a stretch. Playing UNC over the weekend was the most logical thing to happen. And both of their openings would have required us to just randomly cancel a game on our schedule for non-COVID reasons with very little notice to make a game with UK happen.

It’s just utter garbage it’s not a rivalry anymore. I feel like the mutual hatred runs so deep that every game is competitive and has a lot of stakes. The Purdue rivalry has (let’s face it) not been a rivalry for awhile, but I have a feeling we’d play pUKe pretty close and win at least half the time (considering our recent record of 2-1).
 

But aside from everything else, based on a monetary standpoint alone, why they don’t get it going again is bizarre.

Well, sure. And maybe I took your previous post in the wrong way. If you were stating in a general sense that there have been opportunities to get this game back on as regularly scheduled game, then yes, totally agree. I took your previous statement more specifically as they've had 2 COVID cancellations recently and it's lame of them not to reach out to IU to try to get our rivalry game rescheduled on either of those two cancellation dates, which is what I think is a stretch. Good news is Woody is on record saying he'd love to get that game back on the schedule. But if they don't want it, fine, and **** 'em (sorry if that word isn't allowed here). As much as the fans want this game, they don't need us but make no mistake, we don't need them either.
