Game, dammit. Happy that these fans probably won't see a conference title in the next several years

Moore holding Paul in the lane, no call

Why bring in Cole there?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 07:49 PM) I really feel like Illinois has been the better team tonight. And what really drives me nuts is that if they had played with this type of focus (except for that one two minute stretch in the first half) all year they would be looking at a top 4 or 5 seed right now but their effort and focus has just been so spotty all year long. B This is the story of Purdue at home all season. Its very hard to beat them there

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 07:49 PM) Had to look it up. Moore (#35) & Johnson (#42) in the Rivals Top 150. Lol dakich ftw

Moore was draining those shots against OSU

They should go to Richmond with Byrd on him DMac getting a hand on his crotch every time he has the ball

Cole you are retarded

Purdue really grows balls at home huh

Well purdue fans, this is your last year of being relevant for a long time, enjoy it

Well there's no way Purdue doesn't win this one with some of this bulls***.

What's going on here.

Dammit DMac time to play like a futur NBA draft pick. Let's go

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 06:52 PM) There literally isn't a possession during a game against Purdue where they don't commit a foul. They hand check like it's their job

Nice charge, standing directly under the hoop

Purdue just gets away with constant holding on defense at home

Nice to see Moore actually miss a shot

Why won't Richmond post up?

Come on Illinois, no lapses!

Hey! a Run!!!!

4 hits? Really?

Kenpom's preseason Big Ten rankings BTW Preseason TEAM CONF OVRL Ohio State 14-4 26-5 Michigan State 13-5 21-7 Wisconsin 11-7 20-8 Illinois 11-7 21-9 Purdue 10-8 20-10 Minnesota 9-9 18-10 Northwestern 9-9 18-10 Penn State 7-11 16-13 Indiana 5-13 14-16 Iowa 5-13 12-16 Michigan 4-14 12-18

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 04:22 PM) KenPom's ratings on the Big Ten are bizarre. Illinois at 21? Indiana 72? Iowa 84? KenPom is a fun tool, but I can't buy that. Its still the #2 RPI conference and thats not just because of one team. 4 teams is hilariously absurd.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) And how exactly do you know that these freshmen are better than and more talented than those freshmen when those freshmen were ranked comparably and in Koufos's case much higher than anyone in OSU's current class in the greatest HS bball class of all time? Unless OSU's freshmen significantly outplay their ranking (possible, unlikely but possible) OSU won't be a Big 10 title contender next year (unless the Big 10 is last year's Pac 10 bad). Says you. I say different. Who is right? I guess we'll have to actually watch it play out. I personally, along with alot of other Buckeye fans, would rate the returning talent much higher next year than it was in 07-08. Not only that, but we think they fit very nicely in with the incoming class. Next year they may struggle since they are young, but I fully expect them to once again compete for a conference title especially since I dont think a team is going to run away with it like they did that year. If OSU wins 1 of the next 2 games that makes 4 out of the last 6 conference titles, I'm sure you didnt predict each of those before they happened either.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) We will be in last place this year. And score 0 runs.
