basically, I think the way the game was called, with a lot being let go, benefited our comeback.

Also, colour me cynical, I always expect home cooking in the Big Ten.  This year has bucked that trend though... and I think that is a good thing.

I'd still like to see some detailed calls/sequences, but I suppose there were some no calls at our defensive end. It was a rough game overall - we got mauled on our defensive boards, and part of that was that we didn't repond to the challenge and part of that was that anything was allowed to go on the backboards last night. 

There was definitely a horrible call where the ball went off Caris out of bounds (mid-first half) and we got the ball, and Jordan certainly touched the net, but on the latter, I mean, come on, no way that gets called. 

I've also seen Purdue people complaining about Hammons 5th foul, where he ran Glenn over, and that's just fucking ignorance of the game. That's a foul. Glenn was knocked to the ground, the possession was changed, and the big fella needs to look where he's fucking going. That's all on Hammons and it's the right call every time.

About damn time an improbable end of game shot went our way!!!!  Way to go GRIII!!!!

 

Great comeback by the team, I really need to stop doubting their resolve.

 

(Save your comments about the Kansas shot, we all knew that shit was going in the moment Trey put it up).

beater in overtime to beat Michigan for Purdue.

 

Here's to hoping that never occurs and that if Burke the IV is NCAA bound he plays for Michigan.

I told my dad that it'd be an alley oop to Robinson.  If you re-watch the tape, Walton is talking to GRIII during the TO and giving the "alley oop sign" (pointing up and to the rim).  I called it yo, I called it so dang hard that I originally believed the lob pass was a messed up alley-oop!

If you look at the in-bounder, he's looking at Robinson at the end (i didn't see the beginning, I was watching GRIII and Stauskas).  Also, Nik wasn't even cutting hard for the inbounds pass. . . It was a called play.

Final thought: the coaches didn't even talk to the players much during the TO.  They conferred among themselves, and THAT'S when Walton pointed, and I trul believe the players decided on the play before the coaches even talked to them.
