Did we empty the tank today? Or did we get our swagger back? We'll find out tomorrow
 
If you're Purdue, who do you focus on in your game plan? Seriously, it could be anybody right now. Cam? Cliff? Simpson?
 
Edey will play drop coverage like he has all season long. You will not see him come out and hedge like Cliff does on a PG like Simpson. It will be interesting to see how Simpson vs. Smith and presumably Cam vs. Loyer plays out. Edey will get his, much like Dickenson did today. It will be about limiting the other options like RU did today against Buffkin and Howard.

If we bring the doubles (or hell Triple team on Edey) the team needs to be on point on their rotations to cover the arc even though Purdue is not the deadly team from 3 they used to be.

Expect more Simpson speed and flow. More Offense, same tough D. Expect a close one. Don’t expect blow out

Today we got contributions from the bench and just about everyone had a hand in this victory. They played aggressive and WANTED It ! They need to keep the same mindset tomorrow.
 
Play loose!!!

Nothing to lose tomorrow and nothing to be gained by playing tight

Balls to the wall boys
 
wouldn't it be great if we beat purdue and got a rematch against the bucks,,,,,,i can dream can't i.........stranger things have happened

Could be seeing a lot of Simpson mid range jumpers off PnR with Edey dropping

Good question. I’m concerned about the physical state of this team in back-to-back games, but sometimes an added shot of confidence and adrenaline can carry you through.
 
All gravy or icing. Just enjoy and play with house money. Get Derek and Woolfolk more PT and even Oskar.
 
Looking forward to another win tomorrow. If we don’t pull it off , and we make the Big Dance, we will be better rested.
 
Michigan was Dickinson and no one else had ever played in the Big Ten tourney on their team. Caved under the pressure. RU on the other hand has veterans who Pikiell said “we’ve been playing in game 7s for four years” hahaha

Purdue same thing. 2 freshman guards. Force their youth to run with it.. they might not handle the pressure
