Nine three-pointers? Yeah, I’d say so.

Okay, little tipsy...
I looked at the screen and was like, ’Why did we change into dark jerseys at the half?"

I call shenanigans. Purdue is using magnets or something. Or psychic powers to make these shots.

Apparently I don't know how to read "new thread is up"
and was wondering why no one was saying anything to me.
Not that it matters much more (except for our 6 more games in the NCAA tourney), but perhaps you can close the threads when you start a new one up? ;-)

Listened to the first half on the radio. Steve Jones sounded suicidal.

We need to lose by no more than 15
A loss by more than that will look REALLY bad to the committee, right?
This game is an utter cockpunching.

Does it matter if we can get it back to 15?
Or will the committee know that we pulled the big fail tonight regardless?
Good night all...
I look forward to the rest of the pictures at a later time.

Will Purdue hit 100 points?

If PU had only hit 40% from three point land...
it would only be a 10 point game at this point, which is right where we want them.
I would enjoy shooting at that drum

A10 is going to steal a spot
It’s going to be a Temple-Duquesne final, so an outside A10 team will be taking another spot.
It was going to take a perfect storm, and those clouds on the horizon are getting dark… </bad metaphor>
"I'm a man, and I can change, if I have to, I guess..."
Cheeer like hell for Temple since they beat you.
It is a better loss that way.

Plus
If Temple loses and Duquesne gets the auto bid, I could see the committee picking Temple over us now with their A-10 run and head-to-head win. So rooting for Temple would cut our losses to only 1 at large bid taken away instead of two.
