The Boilermakers are a hard team to figure out this year. I guess the entire B10 is, too.

And they rebounded 40% of their misses.  Purdue scored 1.53 points per possession today.

As a point of comparison, Michigan scored 1.38 points per possession in the Sweet 16 game against A&M.  The only game I can find where Michigan matched the 1.53 number against a legitimate opponent was the 2017 home waxing of Tom Crean's last Indiana team, 90-60.  (Even this year's Houston Baptist game, which they won 111-68, was only 1.29 points per possession.  HBU may not be talented, but they go fast!)

Interesting that Garza took 15 less shots in this game than in his game vs us. And he was 10/17 so he was being efficient. I guess 2<3 is the main factor but still.
