Let's knock off #2 two nights in a row starting with our hated rival Purdue official game thread.

Ok, announcers praise a team that almost got upset by a young team without their leading scorer!

They are almost completely blowing the boilermakers.

Yeah color me unimpressed with Purdue

 

[ssckelley]

They might have won that game with Keegan. I’m shocked, I thought they’d lose by 20 even with Keegan.

 

[ssckelley]

Yeah color me unimpressed with Purdue

I’m very impressed with Ivey though, he‘s got NBA talent.

 

[Hawkboys]

McCaffrey's combine for 4 of 18 shooting.

 

[vork22]

Does anyone know who will be #1? Jesus these guys won’t shut the F up.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Oh Purdue your Number 1, oh Purdue how does that feel, Oh Purdue, Oh Purdue, blow suck, blow suck............

 

[thedukeofearl]

Hawks lose by 7 at #2 purdue

Without Keegan

Let's listen to the criticism

Forthcoming

I am proud of these Cats

They played at one of the toughest arenas in America

And came close to an upset

The zebras, without a doubt, gave the game to the boilermakers

No doubt

It's All Good

Michigan is Next

 

[vork22]

McCaffrey's combine for 4 of 18 shooting.

And a solid 4 points from JBo

 

[dahlhawk]

Iowa beat the spread, Kris justs needs time and he will be just as good as Keegan. I’m stoked for this team. Defense goes on the road with you, shooting is a fickle bitch.

We saw some players grow up tonight, they’ll struggle to be consistent but others will flash to! Good game Iowa. I think Fran sat Keegan to be safe- worse case he’d see who can ball- he did.

It's sad that ur most seasoned players continue to be so unreliable and inconsistent - ahem, JoBo... CMac.
Did anyone miss those 2 during the multiple displays of grit? Uh, no. They shuld be #9 and #10 in the rotation and Iowa would be better off.

I’m very impressed with Ivey though, he‘s got NBA talent.

For sure, he’s a cheetah

 

[dahlhawk]

Going forward, who starts?

They’ll play bigger roles in certain games I’m sure. Fran sat Jordan a lot this game. I thought he played well, and didn’t hunt shots. I wish he shot more. They get ran out of the gym without Jordan at Virginia, he’s already won them a Q1 game in the first month of the season

 

[ssckelley]

I was very impressed with Ogundele. Hasn’t played much and looked very composed in a hostile environment.

 

[dahlhawk]

We need to press, can’t have JBo and Conner on the floor together to do that.

 

[dahlhawk]

I was very impressed with Ogundele. Hasn’t played much and looked very composed in a hostile environment.

He was agile and played good defense, don’t expect much offense but gives us inside strength.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Breaking news from Sesame Street. Purdue is going to be number 1.....after winning against an undersized and undermanned Iowa team....who beat the spread and were down 2 points in the last 3 minutes.

Let's count to 1......1......and who is number 1...Purdue....just in case your forgot boys and girls.

 

[InGoodCo]

This Iowa team can get stops, let’s all agree. It kept them in the game

 

[thedukeofearl]

Purdue can't handle a press LOL>

Purdue can't handle Hawkeye Press

Hawk D is as good as Nolan Richardson's Forty Minutes of Hell Defense

We did beat them in The Dance with Dean Oliver at the helm
