RUTGERS 65 Purdue 62
If we play even close to how we played against MD, we win, but we haven't played that well yet on the road, except against a weak NE team. I feel good about this one, but no prediction.RUTGERS 65 Purdue 62
Extremely tall order.I read somewhere that our average margin of defeat in Mackey Arena is over 28 points. Honestly, I'll be relatively satisfied if we don't ruin our season long streak of no blowout losses. A road loss by 10+ points is not what we need right now. Of course, a victory would be fantastic, but Purdue needs this game even more than we do and it's their senior day. It's a tall order.
Extremely tall order.
I remember well our home win against them. Offensively, Jacob Young had a huge problem playing against their guard,, and the way Young plays D, I’m sure their guard couldn’t do much against him.
It will be interesting to see if Jacob can continue his offense against them...their guy took away his left and really frustrated him
I thought we played great against Iowa especially to start the game. Thought the refs allowed Garza to be way too physical while not allowing our Bigs to touch him back at all. He’s a great player and he got the superstar treatment. Fair enough but. I thought we played very well that game. If we play like that we win IMO. Also the 2nd half of PSU was as well as we can play.If we play even close to how we played against MD, we win, but we haven't played that well yet on the road, except against a weak NE team. I feel good about this one, but no prediction.
Eastern is tough as nailsgeo was frustrated as well when Eastern locked him up

I thought the same thing last game. He has so much length and moves laterally very well for his size especially. Good thing he doesn't provide any offense at least. Purdue plays some low scoring games. They haven't shot the ball well even in their wins recentlybest on ball defender in the country

Their guards are physical and capable of playing excellent defense.Extremely tall order.

This. They’re a schizophrenic team, normally beatable but tough to beat when they make threes in volume, like they did against Iowa when they made 19 (!) threes. Gotta defend them at the arc and let them try to beat us from the paint and from the FT line. If we do that and play our normal game, we win. RU 73-69 in OT.If Purdue hits threes, RU is dead. If not, we got a game, that's pretty much the MO this year.
Would be great to see Caleb bounce back tomorrow.Interestingly, our win was all about Caleb, and his making his free throws.
Us making free throws all night
