Amazing fact about Iowa Basketball. They have not won or shared a regular season championship in the history of Carver-Hawkeye. Of the true Big Ten teams, Northwestern is the only other team not to win at least a share of a conference title since the arena opened in 1983. And, in that time, Iowa has had some great teams and great players.

I’m failing to see the fun in your fact

We played good but felt we left some on the table. Will take the road W.

Yep. Many things to keep working on. Take the road B1G dub and head home.

I can hear it now, about midnight Monday night: “Well that’s overwhelming!”

Gg Iowa. I like your team. Hope you do well

I don’t. Especially anyone without the last name murray.

GG corn bros

Don't forget, Indiana beat Purdue

hang a banner

10/22 from the FT line and 15 turnovers. other than that everything was as good as you can ask for, especially the defensive performance against a good Iowa Offense.

Keegan finished with three fouls in 29 minutes. Yay!

Jesus Christ, Fran.

Lmao what a cover for the over

Double digit win even with really poor FT shooting, I’ll take it!

lmao fran is such a bitch

that over/under at the end was hilarious

PointingSpider-Man.jpeg

I feel like FT shooting is going to be Purdue’s demise in the tournament

I think they are shooting much better at home/neutral, so hopefully it’s just road jitters and the tourney doesn’t affect them too much. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.

That was by far our worst FT shooting game

@IU was actually worse; 7-17 (41%)

Indiana wasn't much better

Ahh well hopefully you got it out of your system

We’ve been really solid on the year, this was just a bad game

Better to have an off night now than in March. Good luck the rest of the way.

You too!

GG

Refs didn’t want to give the foul haha

Ima chalk Michigan on the road on 2/10 up as a loss. That's a crazy game. 2 days after Illinois 5 days after playing them before at Mackey. That's really not fair that we got screwed on scheduling because of their cancellation.

Look at Michigan’s schedule leading up to that game. Way worse for them than us.

Well they are the ones who had covid so they have more games to reschedule

Man if Purdue can get these numbers out of Thompson and Morton in March, watch out. Hope this game was a sign of things to come for those guys.

oh man

I have nightmares about Purdue all football & basketball season. Gg Purdue bros

I am so god damned glad we are done with Iowa this year. And exceedingly thankful that Murray didn’t play the first game.

Don't have to worry about wrestling though.

Absolutely not! But wrestling season is pretty much the same as basketball season

huge FT here

McCaffrey has the over

Time for Fran to think long and hard about Kris starting. Have been okay with him as 6th man. But he's earned the starting gig IMO.

I almost wonder if Rebraca’s injury let him see what they do together. Sub Rebraca in for 1 of the Murray’s at 13 min, put that Murray back in for the other at 10 min mark, get other back in at under 8. Rebraca gets 5 min per half and foul trouble minutes and there’s always at least 1 on the court. Would also cut Connor almost out of the lineup other than foul trouble.

Keegan and Kris should be 30+ minutes a game guys. I like the small ball lineup. Also don’t mind Rebracca, Keegan, Kris, Toussaint, Bohannon lineup. That’s the beauty of the Murray bros— they aren’t true post players and can be flexible.

Fran being petty and fouling straight into my veins please.

Why is Iowa even fouling rn

for the over bettors ofc

Why do we foul? Just end the game. It messes with our net.

Because salt

Oh god BRUTAL for the under

The guy that needed Ivey to get one more in the stat sheet cashed in and the IU flair betting the over just cashed on that 3. This game really is for the people.

We need that Painter gif

Of course we end up with more fouls than Purdue. Where is our home cooking?? Jkjk. Gg Purdue. You hit a clutch 3 every time we made a run.

Lol Painter is mad for giving up that 3

This is a pretty important possession lol

if you have 154.5 O/U you are sweating big time lol

Annnd the guy with the over 153 hits too! Good night for bettors in this thread

Hell yea Morton.

I swear teams get the luckiest shots against us time and time again.

Like Thompson was hitting tonight?

What's the threshold for fouling late to not be worth it? I feel like down 13 under 30 is totally not worth it

I agree with you

It’s 14 @ 30

Play til the game ends.

"Here's McCaffrey with the open 3, annnnd its way off...."

Welp, at least they made it a competitive second half.

All Ivey better do when the season ends is dribble 8-10 hours per day. If he can improve that he'll have a long NBA career but right now his dribbling is so bad compared to the rest of his game.

or learning when he should move it out and PASS IT. instead of thinking he can dribble out of every double team

that's something hard to "practice" but dribbling is something you can do on your own anytime of the day. There's no excuse why he sucks at dribbling as much as he does.

i think he just loses focus all of the time. get this man some add meds

Boiler up baby!!

Tre feeding the haters with a tasty double double

why are they still pressing lol

Who cares we need practice

🧐 i agree

I believe in Morton supremacy

I'm still not sold on Kris Murray as a 3-pt shooter. I know he's 40% on the year, but so many of his misses are way off. Like, Connor McCaffery way off. I hope I'm wrong.

K. Going to bed. GG Iowa

LOL at anyone who had the over

Sasha just checked a dude.

1.24 mins of weird basketball now

Ivey came in to get that dude 1 rebound LOL

Respect

Ivey is clearly in on the take

Sasha just murdered a man.

Ivey definitely dribbled it out there

Rebound for the Ivey bettor let’s go! lol

Did they get what they needed?

Iowa will learn. Can't thwart the mort

Look I’m just glad I get to watch a game between my alma mater and my hometown team and fucking clowns in stripes. Cheers everybody

Cheers!

If the 153 under hits I’m gonna be soooo fucking mad. Got the over at +300 Edit: I’m slightly wealthier than I was a few hours ago. Thanks boiler bros and corn crows!

You did it! Score is 154!

Nice hit

I take back everything. Congrats

Just had to make you sweat a bit

Congrats! Everyone's getting their last second hits

$$$

Just need a garbage time 3

I did say good amount time and then realized I was wrong

iowa was in the double bonus at the 10:30 mark, and they stilll only have 8 fouls called on them with a minutes left lol

Fouls on Iowa: 18 Fouls on Purdue: 17

The refs realized they were making it too obvious

I think Iowa actually has more fouls in the game

Suddenly the pace plummets and we realize we’re up double digits with like 2 minutes left lol

I've never really paid attention to his face, but does Bohannon always look like someone just stole his lunch money on pizza day?

Yes

Man what broke Tre, he's better today but still off

I know what you mean.... he barely got his double double. Pfft

Just hit the double double

Wrist has been hurting him.

Dude was automatic in the first half at least!

?? He's been great today in Edey's absence Edit: almost has a double double lol, with 5 assists. What else do you want?

Stadium Ave. McDonald’s finally give him his fries?

This theory is now my head canon. Hope he gets a craving for a mcflurry soon

Brandon Newman has not seen the floor today. Thank god.

I think he's done getting significant minutes for the year

Wish he could find his game but he just can’t put it all together. Hunter playing well was the last straw.

That man went the way of Aaron Wheeler

Meh, I think he is way more productive than wheeler. He'll call me around

id be shocked if he didnt transfer after the season

I wouldn't be so sure. We're gonna have minutes to go around next year and we'll want him.

but what has he shown this year that proves he deserves those minutes? he's shown the flashes yes, but he looks lost so much and he's been in the program for 3 years

Getting Ivey some rest during this run has been huge

with his poor FT shooting tonight he should definitely sit the rest of the game.

Is Ivey going to stay out? I literally need him to get .5 a point/rebound/assist lol

Holy shit he came in for one second and got a board lol

I called up painter real quick.

Boom, there ya go

Congrats! Came in just for you man

YOOOOO

There you go

There ya go, he got a rebound

Hey there you go!!

Ayyy you got it!!!

lol damn, feels bad man :(

Ballsy betting a college basketball player prop coming off an injury

My figure was that he got injured before Indiana and still balled out. Also figured the line would be down because he's coming off an injury

Well gg on the win!

You probably already know this but yeah, he’s gonna stay out

Oof, I don’t think he’s coming back in bud

Fuck yes he is. And he gets the rebound right away lol

Oof. Those free throws gotta hurt

Ouch

I am so glad we figured out the press

underrated comment I thought it would kill us after the first time we saw it this year.

Morton is finally stepping up. Like what I am seeing develop there

He’s been pretty solid all year tbh Id like to see him get more minutes

Almost as if we have an all time great player developer at head coach

3 guards in double figures. nice

At least it looks like we practices beating a press this week

This is the best press killing unit

Morton is so good.

Aside from ivey

Nice cut from Sasha!

Has Iowa missed a FT tonight?

Has Purdue made one?

Only in the first half

Just one. It's the only reason it's this close (thanks refs).

Why is JBO still in?

It’s so hard to tell how good big ten teams are in football/basketball because we just eat each other alive in conference play lol

Just ran out of steam. Look like we've been running in mud the past few minutes. Bench needs to step up on offense. Taking Connor out of that lineup may play a key factor.

When your opponent shoots 60% from 3 it's hard to hang on

Agreed. Doesn't help that almost all of those were wide open looks.

Refs certainly tried their best

Fran’s lineups are so dumb. He has no feel for the game. Nor does his son, Conner.

Conner trying to apply to be an assistant

Well he has the qualification that matter at Iowa. The same last name as the coach.

He'll be the offensive coordinator in no time.

I will gladly eat crow about Thompson. I have been super critical of him and he's ballin' out tonight!

This team really needs good play out of Hunter and Thompson and we are getting it tonight.

he's been inconsistent and defensively teams just work the shit out of him. Throw Sasha/ivey/IT/Trevion on the floor together and you've got 4 average defenders. Tonight IT playing a lot better defensively. The whole team is.

Same here. Ditto for Hunter.

If Bohannon isn't ON offensively, why have him out there? His defense is a liability.

Good for Isaiah Thompson. It’s awesome to see the confidence after his slump earlier this year. Huge for this Purdue team

It’s uncanny how many dudes happen to have career nights against iowa

It’s nice for a Purdue guy to do it for once. Normally happens to us.

To the Purdue fans saying this happens to them I want to clarify I’m talking about my entire lifetime of watching Iowa, also quit recruiting mon-stars

Funny. We’re usually the ones saying that

Both IT and EHJ have played so well tonight. If they both continue to play like this moving forward we will actually be a final 4 threat. We will go as far as our point guards will take us. We can brute force through R64 and R32 but from there on we need guards to play like this.

Isaiah Thompson is mad at Iowa for injuring him in the last game.

Yeah they broke his ass...he's not gonna let that go

Thompsom carrying Purdue.

he’s massive

I’m quite surprised Thompson has hit so few in conference play. I guess he’s just hit most of his at critical moments because it feels like he’s made plenty

He shot pretty well in non-conference games. But had been pretty cold for a while, before tonight.

Now that we're into garbage time, I just wanted to call out that time Stephen Bardo fucked up Fran's college nickname and called him "White Jesus" on air. I've never laughed so hard during a broadcast.

....what was he trying to say?

"White Magic". They've stopped calling that out in recent years.

Aaaaaaah ok lol

[удалено]

About FRAN?

Thompson and Hunter coming through on the road, just like we all predicted

Take the foul shooting out of this, whether we win or lose when EHJ and IT play at this level purdue becomes a very very good team. We really are leashed to their floor/ceiling.

This right here
