I was gonna say the same, Wisconsin choking around the rim. It's only a 2 point game but it feels like the next Purdue score will be game over.

Now they finally do take the lead but this should be a 6-8 lead with Edey getting a breather

Edey gets the most favorable whistle in the country. It’s almost like at half time the B10 office called the officials. He’s gotten away with like 3 fouls in the last 6 minutes. The Big East refs would’ve fouled Clingan out already lol

Was going to say the same. He gets away with murder on defense.
 
Edey rarely makes it past half court getting back on defense. If they play a semi-athletic team that can push the pace they’re toast. The Big 10 is by far the least athletic slowest pace basketball of any of the major conferences. Purdue would have at least 6-7 losses if they played in the Big East or Big 12.
 
Edey will be a problem for any team. He is dominating when he gets the ball deep. DC will have a tough time guarding him without fouling. Edey is pretty damn strong.
 
Wisconsin getting open looks from three and missing, but at this point in game, they could also take open 2s, and they're passing those up.

I've been saying it all season I think they get bounced early again, not the first round but they will run into a more athletic team than them again and lose. There's a lot of mid-major teams that are too fast for them, all it takes is a bad shooting night from the Purdue guards.

The Big 10 is not good.
 
Man that looked like Edey goaltended when he attempted to rebound that one shot, grabbing the ball on the rim.
 
Its off Edey but also they fouled him, so refs sometimes just give the ball to the team that got fouled since they can't add fouls after the fact.

And KenPom has been rewarding 95% of that conference with Quad One games/wins playing one another.

Freakin Maryland was a Quad One game this year, which is garbage if you've watced Kevin WIllard's squad this season.
 
Ok... Edey does get some calls. But if they give this ball to Wisconsin it is an egregious missed call. Edey got fouled twice, with no call. Hit on the arm, and then smacked in the head.

Sorry, but once again the refereeing is bewildering. It was obvious he was fouled there.
 
VCU's Shulga killed St. Joe's in the 2nd half. Just not enough on the defensive side. They kept doubling Reynolds ferociously and the supporting cast came up short.

You can't call a foul on a review

Hepburn big shot incoming.

If I’m wrong then I was just joking

If I’m right I’m a genius
 
How does Painter not draw up a play to make sure that the inbounds path gets into Smith's or Loyer's hands? Bad job by Purdue not getting the ball to one of their 80%+ foul shooters.

This is where in-game coaching is so important, and I'm sorry, but Painter is not anywhere near as good as the media says he is.

Now a 2 point game instead of 3, and Wiscy has the chance to win outright.
